“Propaganda Intensifies Trade War with China
“The dwindling empires' main propaganda outlet, the New York Times, continues its anti-China campaign. It is now by blaming China's president for the failure of trade negotiations with the United States”

An excellent summary of many aspects of a serious and deteriorating situation.
In the end, China has a lot of brainpower to apply to situations like this.
They are used to speaking and writing one of the world's most difficult languages.
They are used to playing Go, one of the world's most difficult board games.
And their national endowment of analytical skills immensely surpasses that of the United States.
They are said to have eight times as many students in math and science and engineering in their universities.
Xi himself is very bright, having earned degrees in difficult subjects at demanding universities, and he is calm and very forward-thinking. Just consider that magnificent long-term Silk Road Project.
When I think of Trump with his constant mock-heroic poses and foot-high signatures on every silly memo and his gang of noisy, pompous thugs in top appointments, I can't help thinking I know how this will turn out in the end.
