Thousands of demonstrators in Hong Kong staged a “Thanksgiving” rally on Thursday evening in response to President Donald Trump signing two bills in support of the city’s pro-democracy movement.

Demonstrators took to the streets shortly after the president signed the legislation. Some draped themselves in U.S. flags and expressed gratitude for the administration’s support.

“The rationale for us having this rally is to show our gratitude and thank the U.S Congress and also President Trump for passing the bill,” student Sunny Cheung, 23, told Reuters. “We are really grateful about that and we really appreciate the effort made by Americans who support Hong Kong, who stand with Hong Kong, who do not choose to side with Beijing.”

No, they couldn’t.

[Trump is playing the same game with Xi that Xi is playing with him.]

Xi isn’t saying nice things about Trump in public.

Trade Hong Kong for a similar sized blue state.

Contrast the youth of Hong Kong praising America and American democracy while here American college students are doing the opposite.

Our educational system has been conquered by the Left. It was one of their stated goals and they have accomplished it in spades.

Wouldn’t that be something?

What’s in public doesn’t matter.
They’re both negotiating the same: hard-nosed.

Except that China pays tariffs while they negotiate.

it's sad when Hongkongers are better Americans than the RATS!!!

There’s LOTS of degrees of concern.

Problem is people think it’s black or white.

We go to war on their side or not.

There’s a million points in between.

I think you know that.

I’ve read many of your posts. Too sharp to think there’s no in between.

Let’s buy Hong Kong................

Trade Hong Kong for a similar sized blue state.

The California tech companies love China.

Let's trade Coastal Cali for HK.

Great catch!
51 stars / must mean they want statehood.

Unfortunately, Beijing probably not in favor...

They (HK) would have to secede first - Talk about ugly.

What a beautiful sight. Wish the people here in America still loved the flag this way!

I know there’s lots of in-betweens. I’m just sick of us feeling that it’s our responsibility to have our hands all over the world, and to police so much of it. We have soldiers in almost every country in the world. Why?

Those flags will cause great embarrassment in China’s government.

They won’t put up with it.

Anything to screw over China’s totalitarian chicoms is in our best interest. Any way we can make their day to day a living hell for all of the crap they’ve pulled on us is exactly why I voted for PDJT.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

I wonder if they’re saying they want Hong Kong to be a U.S. state.

Maybe Hank Johnson could introduce a bill to have Hong Kong towed to just offshore of the West Coast.

This is refreshing! The NFL and NBA should be ashamed of themselves.
