Mark Carney wouldn't talk to Trump until he dropped the disrespect to Canada and to his Office and there was none until blonde Goebbels repeated some yesterday.
And there are a number of right wingers who think Trump is a bit dumb but Vance is a genius. The truth is, they spend almost no time at all actually paying attention to what these incompetent morons really say and do until the media really highlights something. Vance is just as big a cretin.
The ignorance is truly astounding! Anyone who bothers to learn about other cultures will know that Chinese culture is deeply rooted in saving face and responding to insults. There is no way trump/vance will win this one.
Maybe vance should be sent to finishing school to learn the fine art of not being an ass. Also make-up tips. The Secretary of Cosmetics is seriously screwing up the men and women of this regime. Sometimes less is more and nothing is everything.
Chinese dress. Antique husband. Hitler adjacent boss. First job was with Kayleigh McEnany. Hitler youth/Project 2025 instructor. Saint Anselm College education. Ooof. Fucking train wreck of a human being.
Now why should he apologize when HE is the good honest American wounded by the hyper-sensitivity of the Chinese peasants who started the tariff war! It's THEIR fault that they're offended and now HE and AMERICA are the injured parties! Or something like this. #MAMSA
The arrogance these fools are showing will ultimately hurt us all. It will hurt them as well because their credibility is in shreds now, our economic standing will begin to tank and the brain dead regime/administration will not recover. I have no answers. I don’t think they’re it though.
The west is deeply deeply arrogant on Asia and business. They don’t understand it at all to their own peril. I’ve seen it (granted much subtler) many many times & it causes much financial loss.
always remember that nothing they’re doing is intended to help the US economy or anything else other than to help themselves and a few billionaires personally and Putin above all else.
The US is a failed state. It’s time for all sane nations to drop the US dollar for international trading and liquidate all US treasury bonds. A robust retaliatory measure to combat the destabilizing trump regime. Get in early! The US dollar will depreciate exponentially once the divestment starts.😎
Yeah, I wanted to say this when he first mentioned it. My stepmother is Chinese. China is very much about honor and respect. Insults like that… are Bad.
I’m just some white dude that deals with Chinese suppliers (and knowing a lot of Chinese grad students back in the day) and even I know that shit. They’re a cosmopolitan nation that rivals our own. Thinking otherwise is pure Sinophobia and/or Racism.
Yes, and in many respects they have it way more together than we do. They have horrible humans rights issues but who tf are we to point fingers? And their infrastructure is top shelf. The stories about it being shoddy are from decades ago when they were still a brick. It surpasses ours now
Yeah, their human rights are not great but yeah especially now neither are ours. And NONE of that is the fault of the very nice people I’ve dealt with. I haven’t traveled to Shenzhen yet, but I want to and I’m not scared for a that I’ll be disappeared. Which I can no longer say for them coming here.
Yes, exactly. Same with most Russians. We have a ton of Russian expats here in Seattle. It’s just like here in the US now. It’s not that the whole population supports the regime controlling them. It’s that they can’t do anything about it.
Oh yeah. Like the cheap garbage manufacturing stereotype is not true anymore. They are very very good at manufacturing if you’re willing to pay properly. (Just like here!) And their Engineers are top notch.
Side note: one of the coolest thing about dealing with science-y people where you have a bit of language barrier, that nonsense about math and symbols being universal is true. Like being able to communicate iron by using “Fe” or a concept using equations is just the neatest thing. Makes me hopeful.
They've spent whole self absorbed, narcisistic lives as bullies that strong armed their way through everything that they simply cannot fathom a reaction from others that doesn't include giving up.
Usha?
Usha makes Stephen Miller look like he loves all the Jews(including himself)
Usha, much like Melania is the gross slimy center of this particular shit flavored lolly
Reigning in disparaging remarks from this administration is a big ask, they don't even understand what that word means. This might require thinking about what you say before actually saying it and applying some kind of filter that would indicate respect. Not possible!
As much as i hate iowa ex-gov brandstad on his endless post guv grift tour as china's ambassador, he at least knew the assignment and knew how to schmooze
Just no actual rizz with trumps team, its all entitled force
Adults need to just act their age 🤔, and stick to what they're paid to do as opposed to childishness. Even behavior of certain titles or status no longer shock me.
You mean insulting the other party is a bad way to open negotiations?
What is going on with Vance? Is he the intimate book-smart street-imbecile here? Has the racism killed off too many brain cells? The reality is, China has power, China has pride, and you dismiss that at your peril.
There has never been a more inept, unqualified group of people in a presidential admin in history - incl. the prez.! It’s one thing after another with these dimwits!
EVERY Decent Person In The World - Especially Patriotic #Veterans Everywhere - KNOW That #JDVance Is A DESPICABLE PERSON-Who Has SHAMED *ALL* Military Service Members-Worldwide.
He has also brought SHAME on the Good Name Of #America.
🇺🇸 🌍
Whatever differences we have in competition with other countries, it should never get personal. That's one way you know Trump has never been a genuine businessman. And surrounds himself with clueless sycophants, like Vance.
They're following the putin model. He laid out specific things he wanted trump to capitulate on before he would even consider "negotiating" on Ukraine. He hasnt held up his side, but I suspect China would be more inclined to do so if trump agreed to their initial terms.
I don't don't like felon47 or Vance but I don't really give a shit if China is offended either. You can't trust China either their government are nothing but thieves. So fuck them
So that’s what China’s plan is…no soybeans, no natural gas, no airplanes, no oil.. all former US products now being bought from Brazil, Australia, Europe, and Canada, respectively… they’re gonna show us peasanthood.
I thought I would never hear myself say I agree with China. US MSM should be embarrassed to have let China get out front on Vance's disrespect and ethical vacancy.
World leaders should show up to meetings with the US wearing sweats and yoga gear with the word JUICY printed across their asses, and then tell them to fuck all the way off.
Meanwhile those Chinese peasants are kicking our asses in every department, making things no one else makes, like cell phones and I pads and clothing that the global corporations gave them the right to make, to save money. If Trump's waiting for a call from Xi, he will never get one.
Calling the Chinese "peasants" and Canada the "51st State". While offensive to us, it reflects most poorly on the US. The people who are leading you are simply bad at their jobs. Amateurs.
Threatening and insulting people you want to make deals with is peak Felon tactics. The response has been a hearty fuck you. From everyone. Bullies don’t fare well with pushback, it also shows “you don’t have the cards”. US exceptionalism is a farce they sell you in the USA. The world disagrees.
I believe that it’s because we don’t know who to trust. Is our friend or family member an enemy or an ally? It’s like we have to say something that has two options & wait for the other person to confirm what side that they are on. Then we either battle or become part of the underground movement.
I am pretty sure at this point the Chinese negotiating strategy is to sit back and watch us implode. Then come in and buy up everything at fire sale prices. “The Art of the Deal” in action. From the man who managed to bankrupt 2 casinos.
The Chinese leadership is far too experienced to let offense or insult change its policies. They may use Vance's stupid gaffe for publicistic purposes, but they won't let anything deflect them from protecting their interests. This is just a sideshow--which is to be expected when you elect a circus.
Again, for emphasis, I fucking hate them, I fucking hate the GOP, I fucking hate every ass kisser from media to law firms to academic institutions, I fucking hate the people who voted for him, and I fucking hate those who did not vote.
Because you should not vote on a single issue, the world is a nuanced place and by voting with just one single issue in mind it caused a ripple of damage, not just to America but the world. Honestly,
based on the last 4 months do you think voting (or not) against the Democrats worked out better? Look, I have a visceral hatred of neoliberalsim as much as I do American conservatism with its hyper xenophobia, nationalism, and racism but there was a much better chance of having some, even if
minimal guard rails in place with Harris. This is also my issue with what I'll call DSA types, though I recognize that's a big umbrella, playing a zero-sum game when you don't have the leverage to play that game usually gets you the zero part of that. Is the cause just, without a doubt. Are the
tactics of the supporters effective, not from the end results. Congratualtions to the anti-Dem coalition because both sides are the same - know you have a Bibi unleashed, you've brought unwarranted pain to all sorts of other groups, and you cannot even support your cause in America anymore without
Go figure, people you want to negotiate with are just not that into you talking shit about them publicly. This toxic bro/chick approach to governance, all hate and anger spewed in no particular direction, just sprayed on everything is fucking annoying.
It should not just China requiring the US to show respect.
A lot of ground needs to be made up with Canada, Mexico, Panama, Greenland, Denmark, Japan, South Korea, the EU and the UK to name a few.
If these countries stick together the US will return with its tail between its legs.
JD has always been a pawn. If Trump says it, MAGA goes wild with approval. If JD says it, he gets trashed. I see Trump somehow getting rid of JD and Mike Johnson sliding in as VP. Things can get worse.
Vance does not respect himself so he cannot respect others. He has no sense of the ‘other’. I imagine he says cruel and distasteful things to his wife and children.
What, they didn't mind "The China Virus?"
If MAGA catches up to this, we will probably wind up with more physical assaults on Asians.
Especially as George Takai reminds us about internment camps.
Trump et al are oblivious to how they are perceived elsewhere. They are living under the illusion that the USA is the most important voice in world politics whilst simultaneously reducing their role, and their significance. Upsetting and insulting old allies is not working.
China is moving in…..
What a bunch of brain dead racist fascist morons are capable of showing respect for anyone else except their own selves. Not a chance. I'm happy if China smells the shit and simply kicks the First American Turd Reich ass!
Everything they are doing to everyone is incredibly disrespectful. These are fucking clowns in suits. Toddlers throwing temper tantrums. It's fucking embarrassing.
China will aid in destroying our economy. China nor any other country needs our products. They can get them from other countries! The felon is alienating the US!
Wait.. Help me out here Mr VP..
Is the term Hillbilly & Redneck.. the same as the term Peasant? 0r no?
You need to check yourself Mr. VP…someone’s forgetting where they hail from.. ya think!
China economically beating up on America might have drawn reprisals from American allies in the past, but our very stable genius felon in the WH has pissed off all our allies, soooo….yeah, China’s free to spank us all it wants.
With his thoughtless “peasant” remark, JP Mandel seems to think that China today is the same China from 100 years ago. Or, maybe this is what he & Don want Chinese people to return to being.
While I strongly believe that describing the current administration as "a bunch of grasping idiots led by a solipsistic rapist" would be accurate, I probably wouldn't say that to their faces if I were trying to get them to do what I wanted.
In China they are playing these comments and encouraging Chinese consumers to not buy American brands. They are building Chinese Nationalism on the words of these morons. This will have very long term consequences for US brands who used to enjoy price premiums in the market but now are undesirable.
Wait a minute. Are you saying the Chinese can understand what glow up JD Vance is saying? How is that possible? He spoke in English and I’m sure his comments were only reported in daily newspapers. How did this get back to China?? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
I keep hearing the tapes releasing on dear leader's diaper.
I can't believe there are SO MANY people willing to put that in their mouths.
So pathetic.
So humiliating....oops don't use their trigger words or they'll prove how much the cruelty gets them off.
~erma after dark, but early today
You can't blame Chinese people for American CEO'S moving all their business to China cause they could make 10X PROFIT, as they could in USA. PLACE BLAME WERE IT BELONGS, THE CEO'S.
Same goes for Canadians. They are offended & angry as only a close friend can be when they’re stabbed in the front with threats of annexation. Nothing this administration does will change that - it’s now deeply personal. Some will never come back, never trust, no matter who is in office.
He has not uttered Governor Carney or talked about the 51st state since his phone call with Mark Carney. He is surrounded by ass kissing sycophants all day every day. His sense of self is so disproportionate to his reality. He thinks everyone will cower to him. What a joke he is.
He is so blind to the power of China. It’s insane. He’s the same puffed up bully he has been since birth; oblivious to the possibility that someone else could take him down.
Narcissist can’t apologize. They think they are perfect. He will drag this county to 💩 the except for the 🤑 . I understand now how he bankrupted casinos. 🎰 they throw away money. When people just want free healthcare and good public schools. 🏫 It should not be privatized. And not be in poverty.

Hanging around trump is making him an even more awful person than he already is.
Amazing time to follow US politics, all the same.....
Americans need the good dose of harsh reality coming but you gotta feel for the pain they are going to experience
🔥🔥🔥
And James Vance is a self-assured cowardly Nazi.
Trumpy/Vancy means never saying sorry.
Respect and he called our PM PM.
He will do the same with China cause #wearentgoingback

Not so much Agent Orange and his gang of ill-mannered, white supremacist thugs. There will be a cost here.

Tourism from 🇨🇦 to 🇺🇸 is 📉75% especially Florida his home state! Buycotting all things 🇺🇸 and having an effect!
Individual states are begging us to return but its not going to happen until tRump is gone.
Deminish his power by owning your Power!
I missed it.
Was it on Twitter?
They are all just awful people.
But fuck it.
I hope the Chinese government demands an apology from Trump and a resignation from JD Vance. No negotiations until that happens
Usha makes Stephen Miller look like he loves all the Jews(including himself)
Usha, much like Melania is the gross slimy center of this particular shit flavored lolly

Peasants
This administration is full of obnoxious bullies who get their cues from their Mafia Don

Not a good news for hurry (US) people…
In a trio, you must be part of the duo. Obviously, US is not.

They are always playing chess while we play checkers.
We are here and waiting for impact.
Countries are waiting to “kiss my ass” to negotiate tariff rates.

"Bomb Bom-Bom, Bomb Bomb Iran" anyone?
Those aren't even the most offensive ones.
Who's the "peasant"?
Why do you?
AIPAC hasn't bought all the irish politicians yet

🇨🇦 “Okay”
Trump and his round table of asshats seem to think there are not going to be any side effects from their actions.
The entire world is collectively backing out.
tRump never states facts, just innuendo, never reality…just fantasy and anger.
Is the term Hillbilly & Redneck.. the same as the term Peasant? 0r no?
