Are you new here? US politicians have been sucking up to dictators, terrorists, mercenaries, leftists etc etc for decades. All explained off as "in our supreme national interest". That way you can fool the American public and do anything you want. Every President in memory did that, though I have been following from Bill Clinton.

All of them sucked up to China. All funded Pakistan. All did business with Saudi Arabia.

Just cut the crap and admit that only money matters, and there are no ethics or principles involved. That is more classy than this lie that everyone tells themselves. We are NOT morally or ethically superior to anyone. We are just militarily and economically stronger.

I thought I heard on the news that you had to pay Xi 40K a chair to attend this event

Boomers gon boooooomm.

But does he post mean tweets?

Both modern progressives and secular money-worshipers are stripping America of it's soul and turning us into a soulless trashy hooker...Babylon 2.0.

Theo Von is right when he refers to us as a shell corp or an LLC country.

Wait... All the free market capitalists told me companies only exist to make money. These companies are trying to make money. Are we all of a sudden upset that companies are looking to make money instead of promote ideals and voluntarily put national interests above profits?

There is not, and never will be, any type of "free market". Especially when rigged corrupt scumbag communist countries are in play.

Did you forget "greed is good"?
Jack(ass) Welch type CEOs have ruined their companies long term to enrich themselves and many people sniffed their nethers.

An excellent TexAgs reference. I would hope it would have been over when Germany and Italy declared war on us in '41, but IDK about the snakes in charge today.

let's not erase real history.

there were literally hundreds of thousands of Americans who supported Hitler until the Japanese attacks

Yep. There was in fact a rally at Madison Square Garden in 1939.

I'm sure we'll find politicians on both sides of the aisle that have benefitted from dealing with China. The problem happens when people turn a blind eye to their side and only focus on the other side. They're both wrong, end of story.

Yeah, gross.
