LIVERPOOL, England, Dec 12 (Reuters) - While Russian President Vladimir Putin keeps the West guessing over Ukraine, it was the might of Chinese President Xi Jinping that garnered the long-term strategic focus when the diplomats from the Group of Seven richest democracies met this weekend.

The United States and its other G7 allies are searching for a coherent response to Xi's growing assertiveness after China’s spectacular economic and military rise over the past 40 years.

So far, the best response the US can offer is: "Well, I, you know, the Amtrak, and, uhhhhh, you know, the Thing, it's, I'm telling ya, and, uhhhhhh, that's that."

China and Russia are now considered democracies to Reuters?

So China and Russia will dominate the G7 meeting? I doubt that very much! The POTUS will not be attending, but he will closely monitor the situation, and will respond forcefully when necessary.

Oh, wait. Never mind.

We are so screwed.

Yes, their situation is dominating the talks. Not that they are there dominating the meeting as in leading it.

Facts getting in the way of journalism again.

True, though I can imagine the most common punchline of leaders getting together: “Biden and Harris”, followed by hearty laughter and maybe a hug around a shoulder.

They used to fear “What is that America First zealot Trump going to do? What can we do as a countermeasure?”

Sleepy Creepy Pants-Crapper-in-Chief, basically ignored at the G7. Compare that to Trump in 2018:

I predict that Russia will take over Ukraine and China will take over Taiwan at the same time. Two fronts at the same time. Biden’s not going to do anything anyway.

Donald had “coherent response” down. Who was representing the US? Blinky?
