Biden’s Weakness On The World Stage Is Dangerous: While the left may control the media narrative, it’s not fooling Xi Jinping or Vladimir Putin into thinking Joe Biden is strong.

It wouldn’t surprise me if it turns out that Gog and Magog were in cahoots all along.

[Red Badger]

Biden "strong"?.............

[Dr. Pritchett]

This is part of the total media BS about how our allies hated Trump and love Obama Biden Hillary. Our allies hate American weakness and feel the rats are unreliable partners.... despite how “nice” they are.

[glimmerman70]

They knew this before the election. Why wouldn’t they want biden as president. Weakens America.

[monkeyshine]

the Chinese diplomats, like Putin, used the Democratic Party’s own talking points about how corrupt, racist, evil, and irredeemably sinister the United States is...It’s not any surprise that the Chinese said they agreed with those points. Biden’s team can’t say, politically, that those lines parroted by the highest echelons of their own party are lies, even though they are.

Well duh. If these Democrat leaders don't care for America why would our adversaries and competitors have any respect for us?

"While the liberals in the media and other D.C. establishments aren’t concerned about it at all, few things express the weakness of the current ruling regime like the fact that the U.S. Capitol is still surrounded by troops, months after a riot that erupted over widespread concerns — concerns that those who control the discourse in this country are not allowing to be expressed publicly — about the integrity of a U.S. election conducted mostly by mail-in ballots. The United States would be using that as leverage against any adversary if it were happening in their country."

Fundamentally unserious people in media and DC. While they may think nothing of it, you're damn right those optics were not ignored abroad.

One of the big things in US foreign policy has been the moral high ground. That's gone. Any attempt by Biden/Harris to justify some foreign adventure, and Putin et al will deftly point to that DC fiasco, possibly even with alarm, maybe even throwing in "rogue government" in there.

Biden being “president“ is just a farce! The US is being run by a hostile globalist regime that seized power.
They didn’t win an election
They seized it through criminal, unconstitutional means.
The people are not obligated to comply.

[softengine]

It is all theater at this point. Expect the other shoe to drop within 6-12 mos.

[Don Corleone]

The media have created and supported a monstrous lie and now have no way to back out of their stupidity. It ultimately will cost them their very existence.

[Kazan]

I enjoy seeing Putin make a fool of Biden.

[frank ballenger]

The world’s two most powerful tyrants toast “America Last.”:

Putin: My friend, did you hear the one about the President with cognitive decline, the low morals VP, the ex Brooklyn bartender and the diversity quota compliant cabinet member walking into the sex change clinic at the elementary school?

Xi: Yeah, Judge Smails told me. It was a real doozy.

[Seruzawa]

Ha. Russia or China investigating ANYONE ELSE for racism is gutsplittingly funny.

[drellberg]

It’s lame to comment without reading the underlying article carefully; but I have skimmed.

The problem is correctly stated but not expanded fully. He is being tested not only by China-Russia-Iran, but also by the Mexican cartels and various Central American governments, the North Koreans and others. Biden-Harris has made Mitch McConnell (who deserves more credit than he is given here) an adversary and so he will test Biden-Harris, as will Donald Trump and others.

Donald Trump erred as president in making everyone an adversary all at once. He had limited political capital, and though he was right on most issues and masterful in managing so many battles on so many fronts, in the end he had too many opponents on too many particulars. Biden-Harris is making this same mistake times 100, and this new administration is populated mostly by idiots and incompetents. There is great danger in this.

[Don Corleone]

Biden is a tragedy beyond description.

[cgbg]

Virtue signaling only impresses _really_ stupid people—like the mass media kneepad crowd.

Everyone else is disgusted and/or angered by such posturing.

[Thunder90]

ping!!!

[alternatives?]

I think Jinping and Putin are smart enough to know Biden is not running things. Anybody in the US with an IQ over 95 knows this. I think Jinping and Putin enjoy making the media and puppet masters twist and turn trying to pretend he is.

Biden’s family knows he is a joke but tells themselves it is worthwhile for the good of the country and that they are being so courageous. The extra cash helps as well.

[PGR88]

it’s not fooling Xi Jinping or Vladimir Putin into thinking Joe Biden is strong.

Or in control.

They probably know better than I the likelihood we don’t have a President, rather a puppet - who was put forward by a number of DC/Fed.gov power factions. America’s Preatorian Guard.
