We can hardly judge China on its human rights abuses anymore. We are becoming the "shithole" country.

One of the most frustrating things about the current US administration, is I keep having to side with China. wtf is going on when we can no longer even get together to hate on an external trading partner? When the enemies are not at the gate but in the keep? When I have to agree with actions to punish my own country as well earned and expected?

He's the future president of the United States. Be careful, China!
The backlash exploded on Chinese social media, garnering 140 million Weibo views.
Isn't this nothing for China?

They don't say thank you and they do not wear suits! Send them directly to Venezuela.

Does anyone believe he does not see American citizens as peasants, too?
by recent voting history would that not be somewhat accurate?

Isn't hillbilly the American word for peasant? Didn't JD write a book about that?
Hillbilly refers to mountain folk from the Appalachians. Kinds like Highlanders in Scotland. Rough terrain, no real agriculture, just poverty.
So... peasants. Got it.
If you don't know what a peasant is or does, sure. You can use wrong words for all kinds of stuff, this is the internet.
Condescension makes you seem really, really smart...

It's a negotiating tactic /s
Beyond him being an idiot and a racist and evil, who the fuck talks like this?
He called the UK and France "random countries" when dismissing their importance to mutual security agreements.
He talks like a 4chan dipshit. Which he probably was. Even if he is completely blocked from power for the next four years, just having this moron one heartbeat away from the Presidency has done truly horrific damage to the respect and prestige of the Office.
If by some miracle Trump steps back from the tariffs and the concentration camps and the blatant authoritarianism and the wholesale destruction of the federal government, the damage to America as an idea is something that none of us will live to see undone.
Nobody ever thought highly of American culture, and I know racist fuckwads like these don't represent all Americans, but to outsiders they do. America's economy output was the only thing people liked about this country and the reason people immigrated here, you fuck with the money like this, then what's left of the country?
What's wild is this current admin just kind of solidifies the image of American culture that people have been in denial of accepting. Everyone saw it but they just kept consuming and living in their own bubbles.
