Interesting story, even if not true, then the parties in China spreading rumors about this story indicate both the crisis of their economy and the instability of Xi’s authority.

End of his rule? Are they daft? He has consolidated it very thoroughly. He is pretty safe, having eliminated everyone competent around him, in govt and industry. Even if China falls into starvation he’ll still be top dog. Think Stalin.

As Instapundit said, “What matters most to China is that they are doing relatively better than the US.”

Actually doing better is not the priority for them.

In 2021 I ran into a recently retired Australian Federal Police officer who had just spent a year in China giving seminars on effective crime control techniques. I asked how was China, as things were ramping up around Taiwan. He said they had so many internal control, corruption and crime issues that the Army was tied down on internal security. Not what the news shows.

Great story.

I would like to believe it is true.

But, the skeptic in me says - 100% False.

I thought the fact that various members of the CCP bribed the Biden Family meant Joe delivered something of great value to Xi, and Xi was just being friendly and polite to Joe.

Germany is the only Western nation with a trade surplus with China while China gorges themselves on a trade surplus with the US. Tell Xi to shake down Germany for a bailout.

It’s not like Xi’s Cbina to advertise their kowtowing to anyone.

It is like our CIA to spread such a Biden-pumping story.

Commies like Chicoms and Norks know the scam.

The sooner China becomes 1959 again the safer the world is.

Perhaps Xi told Biden that the US deficit spending covered by trillions of dollars borrowed from China was killing China’s economy

Sad news for the “China is Superman” cult. TikTok will double their pay to spread the propaganda that everything in China is super-duper.
