This seems like it should be bigger news. Well, should be bigger if only the press wasn’t already sweating how weak, old, and mentally impaired Biden is, and this paints another thick layer of shriveled impotency on the husk.
Seems big: During the APEC summit in San Francisco, Chinese President Xi Jinping bluntly told President Biden that #China will "reunify" #Taiwan with the mainland, @NBCNews reports.
Could portend another "great power" attack on a democratic state. https://t.co/qGtB0ppp7e

Their squeamishness to embrace acknowledge the major suckage that is their man in an election year also probably explains why it took so long to break this news to begin with. It supposedly happened last month.
Chinese President Xi Jinping bluntly told President Joe Biden during their recent summit in San Francisco that Beijing will reunify Taiwan with mainland China but that the timing has not yet been decided, according to three current and former U.S. officials.
Xi told Biden in a group meeting attended by a dozen American and Chinese officials that China’s preference is to take Taiwan peacefully, not by force, the officials said.
We’d rather you just gave it to us, instead of helping them make it messy.
EXCUSE ME, WHUT
That’s what rumor has it the man said to the alleged President of the United States.
I’m sorry, ladies and germs – whatever your opinion of Donald Trump, I cannot concieve of this happening in his presence, and sure as hell not while on American soil.
Holy SMOKES – can you imagine the fireworks if anyone dared?
But we don’t have someone like that – we have this blithering vegetable.

When Xi mentioned “Taiwan” POTATUS probably rambled into a story about “tying one on” with Nelson Mandela on an Amtrack or something.
God almighty. And Biden wants to come off as the rational one when he’s barely functional less mind lucid.
…During the summit in San Francisco, Xi expressed concerns about the candidates running for president of Taiwan in next month’s election, according to U.S. officials. Xi also noted the influence that the U.S. has on Taiwan, they said.
When Biden asked that China respect Taiwan’s electoral process, Xi responded by saying that peace is “all well and good” but that China needs to eventually move toward a resolution, one U.S. official said.
Biden’s meeting with Xi, their first in a year, took American officials months to secure after relations between Washington and Beijing reached a low point in February after the U.S. shot down a Chinese spy balloon. The White House hoped the meeting would ease tensions, and afterward Biden stressed the need to avoid conflict.
“We’re in a competitive relationship, China and the United States, but my responsibility is to make this rational and manageable, so it doesn’t result in conflict,” Biden said. “That’s what I’m all about. That’s what this is about.”
“You can count on us,” POTATUS told the assembled APEC (Asian-Pacific Economic Cooperation) heads and representatives at the big meeting Gavin Newsom hosed out San Francisco for.
‘You can count on the US’, Biden tells APEC, despite trade deal stumbles
President Joe Biden highlighted strong US ties to the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum economies on Thursday (Nov 16) and called on CEOs there to treat workers fairly, even as a regional trade deal stumbled over workers’ rights.
Before a working lunch and speech to heads of the 21-member APEC governments at their annual summit, Biden spoke to an audience of CEOs, touting investments by US companies in the region including Amazon, Delta Air Lines, PepsiCo, Apple and Boeing.
Who’s your buddy, who’s your pal?
…APEC members have been closely watching developments between the US and China, the world’s two largest economies and strategic rivals, concerned that ever more intense competition could upset global trade and security.
In his speech, Biden said a stable relationship between the US and China was good for the world.
He said the United States was committed to the Asia-Pacific and that he had told Xi the US was engaged in the region because it was “a Pacific nation”. Biden said the United States was not decoupling its economy from China, but “de-risking and diversifying.”
“We will be firm, standing up for our values and our interests,” he said. “We’re gonna continue our commitment to diplomacy, to avoid surprises, prevent misunderstandings.”
Firm, huh? Like a rock, or like pudding after it’s been in the fridge for a couple of hours?
I vote “pudding,” because there’s not a single word in any of the articles about Xi’s speakly “bluntly” to indicate he got “bluntly” back from Biden. In fact, there’s NOTHING related to ANY response from POTATUS, period.
Isn’t that curious? There’s just a quote from some anon about Xi talking the same old smack.
…“His language was no different than what he has always said. He is always tough on Taiwan. He’s always had a tough line,” said a U.S. official with knowledge of the conversation.
With no smack back.
I wonder how Taiwan’s feeling right about now?
They probably have knees about as firm as cold pudding just thinking about it.
