Blinken defends Biden’s off-the-cuff jab calling China leader Xi a dictator

Secretary of State Antony Blinken stood by President Biden’s off-the-cuff jab calling Chinese leader Xi Jinping a dictator.

“The president speaks clearly, he speaks candidly. I’ve worked with him for more than 20 years and he speaks for all of us,” Blinken told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday.

Biden roiled Beijing last week — roughly two days after Blinken’s state visit — by dubbing Xi a dictator during remarks Tuesday at a campaign fundraiser in California.

Speak for yourself, Blinky. Three-quarters of Americans probably disagree.

President Biden is so far gone, that while he believes Xi is a dictator, he thinks that is OK and acceptable to the rest of us. Biden does not view it as derogatory.

Typical of the passive aggressive foreign policy of this regime. A week ago he kisses Xi's bottom and now the sock puppet in the White House bad mouths Xi and Blinken goes along.

They need to give Biden a shock collar so they can shut him up whenever he's in public.

Blinken and Xi (and perhaps even Biden) are playing Americans. It’s all an act.

While in China, Blinken and Xi came to an agreement. Blinken’s trip to China was about getting Xi to play the game to have Xi and Biden pretend that, Biden ‘thinks that Xi is a dictator’. All that for the purpose of deflection the accusations that Biden was/is China’s puppet for accepting bribes or payoffs from China.

Once Blinen returned, the acting job was put into action. It wasn’t going to happen while Blinken was still in China. Biden’s job was to call Xi a dictator, and Xi’s job was to pretend to be insulted or outraged. The acting jobs are being played to perfection, with all the media turning Biden’s outrageous accusations into a foreign affairs debacle by Biden.

We’ve been played and Biden and son and others are now being thought to be anti-China proponents. Nice way of deflecting from what Biden and company have done over the years to get payoffs from China. Nope! You can no longer accuse Biden of being China’s buddy or puppet. He ‘dislikes’ China, according to what Blinken and Xi planned.

So, move along and don’t even think about Biden being China’s buddy. NOthing to see here. There’s an election coming up and the ‘clean-up’ has been done. Find some other scandal, because, Biden is really a ‘hater of Xi’.

FJB is precisely what our Framers feared: a man who would use his short term of office to enrich himself and his family to the detriment of his country.

August 25th 2020:

US President Donald Trump made an early appearance at the Republican National Convention on Monday to warn his supporters that Beijing would “own” the US under a Democratic administration.

It’s probably part of a plan to make Biden and his goons look ‘manly’... Now China moves into Cuba - Biden tosses most of ‘em out for show - and China moves into Taiwan forever... and back into Cuba.

Sometimes-but not often-I almost feel sorry for Blinken, having to attempt to defend a lunatic’s blabbing practically every day...

The problem is, Joe meant it as a compliment. Xi is the dictator he always wanted to be when he grew up.
