Strange, countless countries in the global south manage to do so
they probably did the sort of deal where you figure out what you want beforehand, and then sit down to discuss what each side is willing to give in return for getting what they want.
not the sort where you have no idea what you want, no idea what the other side even is and you just shout random ultimatums at people
So that's what's wrong with my dating strategy.
what, like carbon dating?
Dating is kinda a numbers game, just stay the course you got this
“This is apparently Beijing trying to leave the impression that the Trump wants to talk. Beijing publicly doing so indicates the phone call is drawing near,” said Neo Wang, lead China economist and strategist at Evercore ISI.
Thank you for this brilliant analysis, Mr Wang. Western "China economists" stay dumb as hell.

Hell of a name.

Seriously these guys are either morons or purposely out there as propagandists.
It is a bit of both, Chinese diaspora from certain periods are some of the most brainwashed compradors of all time, rivalling Cuban gusanos but not quite at the level of brainworms of Persian Shah supporters. Guys who came over during the end of the civil war or the handover of Hong Kong can have some strong brainworms and pass them to their kids. They hold themselves subservient to the whites but superior to the "dirty mainlanders" and often fully believe in the stuff they say; the grifting money doesn't hurt though.
One thing I will note is that I've seen a lot of these compradores actually turn around on China after seeing the massive development and growth, as if they realize they no longer need to have an inferiority complex towards the west and aren't ashamed of being Chinese.
Oh really? That’s interesting, I have yet to see that but I also don’t really follow those people a lot.
It's not the majority, but there are definitely "influencers" and "china experts" that have seen the way the wind is blowing. The think tank type grifters are hopeless though, their paycheck depends on China bashing so they'll do it to the end.
It’s a fantastic sign that the influencer guys are changing their tunes though.
🤣
cry about it nerd
dam dude have you tried to cry ab it

What's wrong Donny Dealz, can't get it up? 
NGL I am somewhat uncomfortable by the amount of sexual tension that trump seems to have for world leaders that tell him no
This almost feels like a gravity’s rainbow reference
Trump, just say you wanna kiss him already, it's pride month after all.
