He's just howling at the wind, China doesn't care what Lindsey Graham says or thinks. Not like they'll change policy based on his performance as an actor.
That is why we tip toe around them, because we sold our nation out for a quick profit to China. Now that we know China wants to fuck us, I see corporations trying to move to other countries with cheap labor. Fucking policy of "anywhere but America", fuck these corporations. Fucking traitorous sold outs.
We are so pro-Trump that we see no reason to not admit his shortcomings while also acknowledging the great things he does. We don’t expect him to be perfect - he is only human - and we won’t lie to ourselves and claim that he is or turn a blind eye to any misstep he makes. Why? Because we the people try to make him hear when we disagree with something he does because he’s one of the few who tends to listen to some degree.
That’s why we post the good (lots of it folks) and the mistakes alike. Can be for GEOTUS and still recognize when he makes an oopsie.
Come on where’s your 4d chess glasses? Trump is using graham just to get elected and then will totally work on draining the very swamp that graham lives in. And graham is totally on board with this plan. He can’t wait to jump off the gravy train!
Hyperbole can exist in factual turns of phrases. Words aren’t perfect. Trump has put Lindsay in charge of SC, because he feels it’s his best move. Loves him or hates him, he’s most comfortable with Lindsay’s position in SC for his campaign.
hes the only one tough on China, everyone else sucks their dick for cheap manufacturing. So many businesses sold America out to China throwing american workers onto the street its pathetic. fucking cock sucking corporations and traitors.
Yep, he did. He also had a gala for the Log Cabin Republicans at Mar-a-lago a month ago. I guess this is some kind 90 billion D chess move or something that I am unable to comprehend.
All you do is shit on Trump --- scroll up to the top and then tell me whose picture you see. You are here to sow division and that's the last thing we need so you would do us a favor by kicking rocks. ✌️
The trump vs desantis thing is complete contrived bullshit. There is no reason that we can't support both. I hope desantis continues to serve FL and plans on running in 2028.
Yeah I was able to predict a lot up to last year, now I don't know what the hell to believe anymore. I'm really curious what's going to happen when Trump starts the rallies again. Would he really bring up people like Lady Graham?
Do you really need someone to explain why Trump talks to these people
and shows support for them? I'm not trying to talk down to you. I'm legit asking.
Yes but Fuck China, sanction them. Total trade embargo with them. Stop buying their shit.
This is all theater, Lindsay is an actor. We buy so much lithium ion from China it's ridiculous and the same government that pushes to mandate electric vehicles is telling you they will sanction the #1 (by far) producer of the key element in making those electric vehicles?
These tensions between the USA and China are completely fake to throw off suspicion. China owns our current government.
Downvote shill doesn't even think it's strange that Spy Baroon crossed amd scanned the entire country before it was shot down over water to eliminate the possibility of civillians collecting debris and documenting it.
China owns the US Government. Any talk of conflict is a distraction.
China doesn't hold shit in US debt. In 2000 they did 1.3 trillion of 5 trillion debt. Now that we're Zimbabwe the amount of debt they own is meniscal. We don't need buyers anymore they just monetize it via the federal reserve claiming they're going to eventually sell the debt back into the market which we all know is a lie. It's funny we supply weapons in the fight against their ally but how dare they supply weapons to help said ally. This line of logic is as retarded as when the EU actually thought Russia would continue to sell them oil but receive literally nothing for it as the EU was freezing their accounts. Then they all shockedpickachufaced.jpeg when Russia cut them all off. The meme makes sense 'really smart nefarious individuals setup the deep state and now it's being ran by their retarded grandchildren'
China is the 2nd largest holder of US treasuries. Number 1 is Japan with just over a trillion and number 2 is China with about 800 billion. They had a trillion this time last year but sold off over the course of Q1-Q2 2022 which made the yield on the 10 year spike and sent our markets down.
Data is available on bloomberg and TradingEconomics websites.
It is a double-edged sword, because we are the primary people buying the crap China produces. Brazil and India aren't picking up the slack on the crap if we sanction them.
China sends us manufactured goods. We send them a bunch of worthless pieces of paper.
All the factories are in China. Nobody in the USA knows how to build a factory anymore.
Who's the one getting their balls squeezed? Is it the USA or China? The USA has ZERO leverage over China.
If China wants to keep its people employed, instead of them making goods to ship to the USA, they could instead have them make goods and light them on fire. The net outcome would be the same for China's economy.
China has a food deficit. They eat more than they grow; the US sells them food, something they need more than the US needs Chinesium crap.
Moreover, China's evil social engineering over the past decades has set them up in a bad bad place economically. The One Child policy will go down in history as one of the most evil, disastrous decisions in the history of humanity, and the CCP is only now starting to realize the consequences of those actions. They obviously got rid of it, but the damage is done.
It means that China will TEMPORARILY (for about 20 years) have an inverted population curve (too many old people). After that, it'll revert to a typical distribution with A MUCH SMALLER POPULATION.
Unlike the USA and Europe, China is NOT mass importing 3rd world criminals to make up their population deficit. That is going to be a huge long-term advantage for China.
We are going to see some real crazy shit come out of china in the next 10 - 20 years because of the one child policy. No doubt the CCP will try to rebalance the population problem via extreme force in the future.
They are WAY to late for it have any impact. They will have to many old people leaving the work force and not enough young people to replace them. Its a recipe for disaster and nothing can stop it at this point.
plenty of us know how to build factories- some of us do it for a living and are very good at it. Not as many as 30 years ago, but we exist and we are still busy as hell.
We have a shit ton of factories in the United States, second only to China. They probably have tons of specific manufacturing processes that we may not have though.
Legacy factories that have been around awhile, very little new construction.
I read a story about someone who wanted to open a factory in the USA. It turned out that nobody knew how to build and configure and maintain a factory. He literally couldn't do it.
China's government has a rule. If you want to open a factory in China, you also have to give them the tech. That means that a Chinese competitor will be making cheap knockoffs of your product in a few years.
“I read a story about someone who wanted to open a factory in the USA. It turned out that nobody knew how to build and configure and maintain a factory. He literally couldn't do it.“
That’s just silly. It’s what i do for a living- i work on the automation side. We can, and do, build some of the finest manufacturing facilities and machines in the world- if you can pay for them.
China is already setting up a new trade zollverein that doesn’t include us. Raw materials from Africa, energy from the middle east, via the belt & road, sell manufactured goods to them, and to Europe via the silk road.
Still need food, can't feed a nation on cobalt. Maybe they can get Zimbabwe to have a food surplus again, but food is the cornerstone they are missing.
I suppose mutual respect between those in society is also missing in the CCP, but most of the world islacking there nowadays, so they aren't at much of a disadvantage there. Still, there is a reason Chinese tourists are dreaded across the entire world, a reason why people in China cut in lines and don't ever hold doors, and that reason holds Chinese society back from many of their grandiose plans.
Europe and Russia make food and are along the new silk road :)
As to your second point, I don’t have the correct buddhist terminology before me but they believe in an ideal form of heaven on earth, and a few other less perfect worldly arrangements that eventually lead to heaven. They are aiming for the latter, not for the ideal as we do in the Christian world. It’s a pragmatic view for sure, but let us be brutally honest, they are eating our lunch right now. We should demonstrate again what Christianity and Liberty can achieve before criticizing the ones who are unexpectedly pulling us out of the fire.
China’s grandiose plans for now are to follow Westphalian rules and finish the war they are still in with Taiwan. Once they win, Taiwan will get a limited duration one country two systems deal like HK did. Those who don’t like it leave like the rich Hongers did in the 80s and 90s. Since this will entail fully severing relations with the West they’ve been stacking all the gold, building belts and roads, and pointing hypersonic missiles at the Pacific. In the end they’ll have a sphere going from Australia/Japan through Asia and the Middle East and encompassing all of sub saharan africa. They, like the Eurasian sphere (dominated by Russia) and our Americas sphere that are forming now, will have no reason for war with other spheres, as each sphere is self sufficient and we all have space as an infinite frontier now.
China most likely isn't capable of taking over Taiwan militarily anytime soon; it goes back to what is debatably the biggest mistake in the history of human government. Most people don't understand just how catastrophic that policy was; it makes Mao's Four Pests campaign look brilliant, and the Four Pests campaign was colossally stupid.
The CCP can't actually wage a war with high casualties or they risk getting overthrown at home. Most of China is still dirt poor with no retirement plans or government social nets, with one exception: children. But for a couple generations, children were an extremely limited resource.
The majority of the country is simply too poor to sustain a single death to their family. Even with no US intervention, I don't think the CCP will risk the societal upheaval an attack on Taiwan could potentially bring right now.
Unfortunately, the general economic future isn't looking great for China either due to the never-before-seen demographic problem the One Child policy has created, so the window for invasion seems closed for a ways into the future.
They needn’t invade. Encircle the island and don’t allow any foreign ships through. Hypersonic missiles if America tries to ram its carriers through (though America won’t do that, see how they pussyfoot around trying to start a war in Ukraine). Taiwan will cry uncle in a month.
And, according to our own Westphalian rules, China is in the right. They are still at war with Taiwan. No ceasefire or peace treaty has been declared. Taiwan does not declare independence, they agree the war is still on and they are the rightful government in exile. If the war is still on, Western nations are all assisting China’s enemy. There is no option in our westphalian system or their eastern face saving tributary system for peace until this is resolved. Further, China is objectively right: western missiles in Taiwan are as unacceptable to China as western missiles in Ukraine are to Russia or Russian missiles in Cuba are to America. They must have a resolution and now’s their chance to get it. Lastly, the average Chinese agrees, the war must be won, Taiwan (a foreign-backed hostile in their eyes) must be subdued.
Talk of a demographic problem in China is our way of softening them up for mass immigration. Demographic problems are a myth, they don’t affect regular people badly, they affect bankers. If society doesn’t grow indefinitely their ponzi schemes don’t last.
We’ve already lost Taiwan. We’re all just going through the motions now.
You are actually crazy if you don't think forcing abortions for nearly 5 decades won't have any negative consequences.
Sounds like you have bought into the CCP propaganda on how smoothly a Taiwan takeover will go too. Nobody knows how it will go, but it certainly won't be so easy as blockade the island and the white flag goes up. Of course the CCP pumps out that message because they know a war with casualties is bad news for them, and they know their soldiers are mentally weak, just have to look at how bad India worked them in those scrimmages a little while back.
He sound scared, everyone knows sanctions against China will only hurt those dependent on China import. China export their cheap crap allover the world, being sanctioned by the US is a drop in the ocean.
Sure he could come down on his knees and beg EU to sanction China too but that will probably never happen after all the Biden administrations recent fuckery.
Well it's important to understand that there's a difference between the petrodollar and the dollar being the world's reserve currency.
"petrodollar" refers to the deal our central bankers made with OPEC, (primarily Saudi Arabia) during the Nixon administration. The reserve currency status occurred at Brettonwoods in 44.
But ya, the world wants an end to US dollar hegemony for 2 reasons:
We are constantly ripping them off with obnoxious government over-spending and debt creation on our welfare state. This devalues their foreign currency reserves.
Our idiot bankers and bureaucrats abuse the shit out of "sanctions". Especially Obama's crew of imbeciles.
And if you want to see the actual downfall of America take place, watch what happens if we lose reserve currency status with the national debt we currently have. The Great Depression will look like roaring good times, and that's no exaggeration. It will be unprecedented in American history.
We’re talking about Azerbaijan and you’re back on airplanes?
Russia clearly doesn’t give a shit about US sanctions. If anything, the sanctions accelerate the decline of the USD as a reserve currency. Why would a country hold USD if they can be cut off at any moment due to “sanctions”? There’s a reason why the majority of the world population supports Russia over the US.
What a retard. And what if China decides that we should be sanctioned? What if they cut us off from rare earth metals and such? All for arming Ukraine.
Lindsey is awful. I hope people remember that the next time he's up for reelection and talks tough for the 6 months before, then takes it in the ass by democrats ramming judges through. He plays the honor game and wonders why the GOP loses
To anyone who's interested, there's a geopolitical expert named Peter Zeihan who, while recently on Joe Rogan's podcast, has been giving hour-long talks to industry leaders and government officials for years, and that's after being VP of a geopolitical consulting firm for a dozen years.
Bear in mind you're better off listening to him directly, but my take on his assessment is that China is a ticking time bomb, and it's only a matter of time until it collapses under its own weight, one way or another. Pound for pound, Mexican labor is cheaper and more skilled than Chinese labor, and the only reason we haven't moved basically EVERYTHING we'd need to be totally self-sufficient into the NAFTA countries is the sunk cost of the factories built in China. Thing is though, sooner or later, industry is going to come back to North America, regardless of which of the 3 NAFTA countries it is; it's just a question of whether one factory or another will move back home early and be fine, or do the industrial equivalent of being the last person on the last helicopter out of Saigon.
In Zeihan's estimation, Trump's drafting of NAFTA v2.0 was one of the most important pieces of legislation in living memory, because it sets the groundwork for the economic security of America for like the next 50 years.
It's o.k. for the US to call their NATO & invest billions to kill Russians. But not o.k. for China to help Russia? We don't need assholes like this dick lipped traitor.
Nobody on the left or right likes this faggot, I don't know why he's there. He's like the Bill Mitchell of Congress.
Hannity LOVES fluffing him and has him on his dumb show non-stop.
He's the only one I can think of.
Ugh, I wanted this to be false...
Graham knows how to get the winning number in SC better than anyone.
He's just howling at the wind, China doesn't care what Lindsey Graham says or thinks. Not like they'll change policy based on his performance as an actor.
Graham was one of the early architects of setting up the conflict in Ukraine and the subsequent sanctions.
Yeah, Lady Graham barks, but "she" runs with a pack of bigger dogs who bite.
Sanctions? We get almost everything from Chyna. They can stop shipping for a week and we would have more shortages. We don't make anything.
That is why we tip toe around them, because we sold our nation out for a quick profit to China. Now that we know China wants to fuck us, I see corporations trying to move to other countries with cheap labor. Fucking policy of "anywhere but America", fuck these corporations. Fucking traitorous sold outs.
That's Joe Biden. Anybody but Americans.
We are so pro-Trump that we see no reason to not admit his shortcomings while also acknowledging the great things he does.

Come on where’s your 4d chess glasses? Trump is using graham just to get elected and then will totally work on draining the very swamp that graham lives in. And graham is totally on board with this plan. He can’t wait to jump off the gravy train!
That's not the reason tho. They do it annoy people.
It's like when someone says "Drumpf is bad at picking people"
But he is. His people choosing skills are geared towards business and entertainment, not politics
He wasn't being positive or negative there, just factual
So does Trump LOVE Lindsey? I doubt it.
Hyperbole can exist in factual turns of phrases. Words aren’t perfect. Trump has put Lindsay in charge of SC, because he feels it’s his best move. Loves him or hates him, he’s most comfortable with Lindsay’s position in SC for his campaign.
Because that's Anaconda's latest alt. The writing style and choices of what to talk about match perfectly. Username does too.
Please ,please sanction China............America will have to go back into business to have shit
Reddit and 4chan are boring lately, so they shitpost over here.
hes the only one tough on China, everyone else sucks their dick for cheap manufacturing. So many businesses sold America out to China throwing american workers onto the street its pathetic. fucking cock sucking corporations and traitors.
He's only tough on China because their micro-penises are too small for his gaping ass.
Clearly it has been quite some time since you clapped lady lindsey's cheeks...Bill Cassidy stitched him up tightly and made him 18 again.
Hannity loves his "Foul and Skank" and he seems to be fond of beetles, especially ladybugs.
And he was a dishwasher and a construction worker and a drug addicted sex worker and a garbage collector and a mailman and a….
They have a lot in common. No one on the Left or Right likes Hannity either.
I mean Trump quite literally just did a campaign stop with her
Yep, he did. He also had a gala for the Log Cabin Republicans at Mar-a-lago a month ago. I guess this is some kind 90 billion D chess move or something that I am unable to comprehend.
Link?
All you do is shit on Trump --- scroll up to the top and then tell me whose picture you see. You are here to sow division and that's the last thing we need so you would do us a favor by kicking rocks. ✌️
the fact youre downdooted shows how many retards have infiltrated this site
The trump vs desantis thing is complete contrived bullshit. There is no reason that we can't support both. I hope desantis continues to serve FL and plans on running in 2028.
I would like to know who is astroturfing this. I plan on voting both if either run.
Finally. I was starting to feel like nobody else here understands this. The shills are absolutely relentless in pushing this bullshit.
Off topic you still using openSuse?
Yeah I was able to predict a lot up to last year, now I don't know what the hell to believe anymore. I'm really curious what's going to happen when Trump starts the rallies again. Would he really bring up people like Lady Graham?
Do you really need someone to explain why Trump talks to these people and shows support for them? I'm not trying to talk down to you. I'm legit asking.
He's the Barney Frank if Bill Mitchell's.
Yes but Fuck China, sanction them. Total trade embargo with them. Stop buying their shit.
This is all theater, Lindsay is an actor. We buy so much lithium ion from China it's ridiculous and the same government that pushes to mandate electric vehicles is telling you they will sanction the #1 (by far) producer of the key element in making those electric vehicles?
These tensions between the USA and China are completely fake to throw off suspicion. China owns our current government.

China owns the US Government. Any talk of conflict is a distraction.
Two words: Open primaries.
Who holds our debt you ladybug ass-cheeked faggot?
China doesn't hold shit in US debt. In 2000 they did 1.3 trillion of 5 trillion debt. Now that we're Zimbabwe the amount of debt they own is meniscal. We don't need buyers anymore they just monetize it via the federal reserve claiming they're going to eventually sell the debt back into the market which we all know is a lie. It's funny we supply weapons in the fight against their ally but how dare they supply weapons to help said ally.

China is the 2nd largest holder of US treasuries. Number 1 is Japan with just over a trillion and number 2 is China with about 800 billion. They had a trillion this time last year but sold off over the course of Q1-Q2 2022 which made the yield on the 10 year spike and sent our markets down.
Data is available on bloomberg and TradingEconomics websites.
That's like $6 a day per person for a year. It ain't that much.
do you know what a bond yield is?
It is a double-edged sword, because we are the primary people buying the crap China produces. Brazil and India aren't picking up the slack on the crap if we sanction them.
Let's think about this:
China sends us manufactured goods. We send them a bunch of worthless pieces of paper.
All the factories are in China. Nobody in the USA knows how to build a factory anymore.
Who's the one getting their balls squeezed? Is it the USA or China? The USA has ZERO leverage over China.
If China wants to keep its people employed, instead of them making goods to ship to the USA, they could instead have them make goods and light them on fire. The net outcome would be the same for China's economy.
China has a food deficit. They eat more than they grow; the US sells them food, something they need more than the US needs Chinesium crap.
Moreover, China's evil social engineering over the past decades has set them up in a bad bad place economically. The One Child policy will go down in history as one of the most evil, disastrous decisions in the history of humanity, and the CCP is only now starting to realize the consequences of those actions. They obviously got rid of it, but the damage is done.
It means that China will TEMPORARILY (for about 20 years) have an inverted population curve (too many old people). After that, it'll revert to a typical distribution with A MUCH SMALLER POPULATION.
Unlike the USA and Europe, China is NOT mass importing 3rd world criminals to make up their population deficit. That is going to be a huge long-term advantage for China.

They are WAY to late for it have any impact. They will have to many old people leaving the work force and not enough young people to replace them. Its a recipe for disaster and nothing can stop it at this point.
So true.
China can stop selling to USA but that'll destroy the world and billions of people..

Hey, cool it with the anti-semitism
It’s anti-semenism if we’re talking Lindsey.
Those aren't lady bugs.
Debt means nothing if you can't enforce it.
They funded the weapons we purchased which we could easily use to completely ignore and even flst out cancel our debt to them.
In theory we could lose investor confidence, but I doubt it if it's a specific political issue that's specific to this one country, China
I’m sure the US Congress needs their viagra. I’m also sure that China makes all of it now.
washington DC is the Titanic .
They're the Titanic AND the iceberg.
What a neocon faggot. The Bush/Cheney/ McCain mafia would be proud.
Sanctioned on what? The goods you buy from them? So you'd levy a tax on yourself.... to punish China....
"Lethal"... What's the other option, Nerf guns?
Food, medical, equipment.
These morons pushed Russia into China’s arms. Russia should have been our ally against the NWO i
That's the problem here. Our Government IS the NWO.
I keep hoping he still may be.
will China provide less-than-lethal weapons, like balloons? 🎈
all this does is make me root for russia
Correct. A Christian nation that abhors the gay agenda and prevents illegal immigration. Russia rocks.
Meh, I doubt China is supplying anything, Russia has this well in hand.
I think as Ukraine is clearly going to lose they are working on a new, new story line.
My guess; the only reason Russia won is because China helped them. We have the most embarrassing govt of all time.
Yep they certainly are.
I wanted to be a Cardinal until 3rd grade, the nuns dashed that hope, being a girl and all.

What is Congress going to do, stop borrowing Chinese money to support illegal aliens? Oh no, please don't help the Russians anymore...

We are constantly ripping them off with obnoxious government over-spending and debt creation on our welfare state. This devalues their foreign currency reserves.
Our idiot bankers and bureaucrats abuse the shit out of "sanctions". Especially Obama's crew of imbeciles.
And if you want to see the actual downfall of America take place, watch what happens if we lose reserve currency status with the national debt we currently have. The Great Depression will look like roaring good times, and that's no exaggeration. It will be unprecedented in American history.
This is definitely going to happen, soon. China, Russia, and the global south are on the verge of trading in currencies pegged to commodities.
China and Russia are already working together bruh, that happened when you stole Trump's win.
Sanctions are games.
They are actually really bad and fuck up your economy. Ask Russian airlines.
you say that like Russian airlines don't get to keep all those Western planes they were leasing
Right as long as they don't fly to any of the 169 countries that would repo the planes upon landing...
Have fun in Azerbaijan i guess lol
Having been to Azerbaijan, I’d rather go there then the majority of US cities.
That makes one of us, they been cut off from maintenance and replacement parts by Boeing and airbus.
They are death traps.
We’re talking about Azerbaijan and you’re back on airplanes?
Russia clearly doesn’t give a shit about US sanctions. If anything, the sanctions accelerate the decline of the USD as a reserve currency. Why would a country hold USD if they can be cut off at any moment due to “sanctions”? There’s a reason why the majority of the world population supports Russia over the US.
When the sanctions started and the Russians lost all their euros, dollars and gold stationed abroad.
So they said fuck the west and parked their money in half a trillion in yuan.
And then the day came that they wanted the money back and tried to cash in their yuan and China said no.
So Russia had to go back to buying 100 dollar bills off the normal markets because it's better than dealing with the worthless yuan.
Western countries put a cap on Russian crude you really think that doesn't hurt russia?
Because for every problem it has it still better and more stable than other currencies.
We were talking about flying to Azerbaijan.
The last Titanic ticket sold for over $65k. Just sayin'...
Remember when tariffs were an act if war when Trump rolled them out?
Buy rubles lol.
I'm all for the end of it since that's the only way globohomo loses. This lady-boy should keep running her mouth.
Just give Z to the Russians and fix our railroads.
Listen the weakness in her voice as she pleads with the CCP "Don't do this". She's a dried up cunt, fuck her and people who keep electing Lyndsey.
What a retard. And what if China decides that we should be sanctioned? What if they cut us off from rare earth metals and such? All for arming Ukraine.

Give him a call and tell him some home truths.
Lindsey is awful. I hope people remember that the next time he's up for reelection and talks tough for the 6 months before, then takes it in the ass by democrats ramming judges through. He plays the honor game and wonders why the GOP loses
UniParty lizard
The excuse from SC people is that the "other guy" is worse.
To anyone who's interested, there's a geopolitical expert named Peter Zeihan who, while recently on Joe Rogan's podcast, has been giving hour-long talks to industry leaders and government officials for years, and that's after being VP of a geopolitical consulting firm for a dozen years.
Bear in mind you're better off listening to him directly, but my take on his assessment is that China is a ticking time bomb, and it's only a matter of time until it collapses under its own weight, one way or another. Pound for pound, Mexican labor is cheaper and more skilled than Chinese labor, and the only reason we haven't moved basically EVERYTHING we'd need to be totally self-sufficient into the NAFTA countries is the sunk cost of the factories built in China. Thing is though, sooner or later, industry is going to come back to North America, regardless of which of the 3 NAFTA countries it is; it's just a question of whether one factory or another will move back home early and be fine, or do the industrial equivalent of being the last person on the last helicopter out of Saigon.
In Zeihan's estimation, Trump's drafting of NAFTA v2.0 was one of the most important pieces of legislation in living memory, because it sets the groundwork for the economic security of America for like the next 50 years.
We shouldnt be economically involved with China in the first place.
I can't stand that pip squeek professional retard! He's always been a turncoat.
It's o.k. for the US to call their NATO & invest billions to kill Russians. But not o.k. for China to help Russia? We don't need assholes like this dick lipped traitor.
By what powers? He is a bag of really hot air…
These guys are so fucking dumb, a statement like this would almost guarantee that China provides at least some lethal weapons, that's how they think.
Fuck China
