China Mocks Joe Biden for Mulling Belt and Road Alternative

Chinese state media mocked U.S. President Joe Biden for suggesting Friday the free nations of the world create an alternative to China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).

Chinese Communist editorialists said the U.S. no longer has the wealth, influence, or organizational skill to rival China’s international infrastructure plan, which they claimed the West has unfairly maligned as an effort to dominate the Third World by indebting its governments to Chinese banks.

Biden told reporters on Friday that he suggested creating an alternative to BRI in a telephone conversation with U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

“I suggested we should have, essentially, a similar initiative, pulling from the democratic states, helping those communities around the world that, in fact, need help,” Biden said.

On Sunday, China’s state-run Global Times laughed at Biden for thinking he could create a global infrastructure plan when he cannot pass a U.S. infrastructure bill:

Despite the fact that Washington has aired its concerns over the BRI, it has yet to convince countries that it can offer a reliable alternative to the Chinese initiative. As the US is thinking about helping the world with infrastructure construction, its own infrastructure is in urgent need of update. As a matter of fact, Biden’s $3 trillion package with a giant infrastructure plan to boost infrastructure in the US is still under debate – the plan cannot even make all Democrats say “Yes.”

If the infrastructure scheme that Biden proposed really aims at improving connectivity between countries while promoting their infrastructure, it is worth anticipating. However, given the current moves and statements made by Washington, it is hard to say that the US has necessary capital or willingness to realize such an approach.

Heck, as an example, look at all the success we've had in Haiti helping them over the past 25 years.

The Democrats won’t fix or build roads in the US, but they’re willing to do that in Third World countries?

China has knocked the entire worl back almost a century with their Wuhan Virus and now they want to supply a World Wide infrastructure initiative?

What could possibly go wrong?

As far as Biden’s remedy that we cpmpete, the question is , with what. Biden has auctioned Americas future off by his huge bills to pay off Dem pensions, municipalities and culture sinks with Trillions.

Donald Trump could pull it off, but we allowed Joe and his Alinskyite crime syndicate to steal the 2020 election.

We will do well just to keep the sex change crowd and LBGT military community from destroying our home defense.

Joe talks big, but he does not have a big stick. He has a puny little apologists for America stick.

Go away Joe.Europe will not let you spend every body else’s money like we stupid Americans do at home.

Thanks to Joe, Red China is well on the way to permanently destroying US energy independence,AND well on the way as replaceing the USD as the worlds reserve currency.

In short:

Joe sucks , he has sucked in the past, sucks now , and will suck in the future. Joe is a parasitic leech.

China, Russia and Iran are wiping the floor with Joe.

Joe will go down in history as one of the worst presidents we ever had, along with Obama.

Great!

Send more taxpayer money, in addition to exorbinant foreign aid, to corrupt, 3rd world s**tholes.

All the while importing their illiterate, disease riddled citizens here to overwhelm our healthcare system, spread disease, take American jobs and suckle at the welfare teat.

Actually, the Belt and road initiative does not give anybody anything. For very substandard Chinese work, the countries became forever indebted to China and had to pay bigly for their “gift”. It is China way to take over the world.
If Biden wants to duplicate it, that would be great! However, the Chinese are right. We would never dare to do it that way. Instead it would be another government boondoggle, subsidized heavily by taxpayers, by the money we do not have, to waste them and deliver nothing to the people of the poor countries. Well, maybe apologies!

What? Where? Who?

I know! I know! A canal from Dar es Salam in Tanzania to Lagos in Nigeria! A series of tunnels through the Andes and Himalayas! Rail bridges connecting Alaska and Siberia, and others connecting Australia with Thailand!

That’ll show those Chicoms!

They’re right for the wrong reasons. Of course the Biden regime can’t and won’t. Their ideas are just a cover for graft and kickbacks to big Dem special interests.
