So let me get this straight Biden who didnt know about the balloons either until they were all over the country....who doesnt seem to be clear on a great many things ,like where he is or what he is supposed to say...who is acting like a 3rd world dictator trying to imprison his greatest political threat...is calling Xi a clueless dictator? lol.

[cdcdawg]

Accidental spying? Is that what Brandon is going with? He didn’t know, either. Meanwhile, he is trying to imprison political opponents.

If Xi Jinping is angry over being called a dictator, imagine how mortified Xiden must be over what patriotic Americans call him!

(or maybe his minders just never tell him)

[BipolarBob]

I blame the Chinese in this matter. They have it all wrong. Biden meant it as a compliment. He’s envious.

[sten]

they’re trying to start something with china

if they can kick of ww3, they’d be ok with that.

these people need to be run out of office before things get too far out of hand

Xi could call Biden a “dictator”, and arouse not one bit of animosity from perhaps a defining majority of the American people. Every definition fits, from illegitimate ascent to office, to lack of accountability, to ruthless and meaningless abuses of power, even to the refusal to deal with “lesser” entities for redress of wrongs.

“Tone deaf” is not the only characteristic of the Biden regime.

[Jewbacca]

The Chicoms shouldn’t be mad.

, Biden is jealous. He considers “dictator” a compliment.

This is called Democrat diplomacy. Xi is a dictator. Putin is a dictator. It's not a matter of whether they are or not, but a matter of insulting a counter-party in the very large venue of geopolitics. Democrats are becoming idiots. Heck, even MAGA is domestic terrorism to them.

I told a Democrat acquaintance the other day that we were "done" after he thought insulting me was some kind of winning strategy. Won't be seeing him again. I expect that little vignette will be played out on very big world stages.

When American foreign policy says .... "you're a dictator" and "can we talk?"

True. A Democrat assumes that our values are universal.

--- "True. A Democrat assumes that our values are universal."

With respect, I make a small edit. A Democrat assumes that THEIR values are universal.

When we lived in Germany, In constantly heard and read about EU values. Always asserted; never defined.

That ship has sailed.

““The reason why Xi Jinping got very upset in terms of when I shot that balloon down with two box cars full of spy equipment is he didn’t know it was there,” :

Only President Bribery would think you could shoot down a balloon with two boxcar loads of spy equipment.

[NetAddicted]

Yep. All I can think to say right now.

[joma89]

Joey is a dictator as well.

[sten]

i realize things are insane... i’ve been beating this drum since 1995... but in this context, ‘out of hand’ means ww3

“No one here at FR should be surprised by ANY of this. There is no justice in this country right now, the USA is a banana republic and one step away from a dictatorship.”

For 27 seconds on Tuesday night, Fox News posted a chyiron beneath a video of President Biden: “Wannabe dictator speaks at the White House after having his political rival arrested.”

That sparked a media uproar over what was portrayed as the biggest breach of decorum since the 1865 assassination of President Lincoln at Ford’s Theater.
