We thought we couldn’t do worse than Bush, but here we are. I’m not holding my breath for the future. I’m expecting 4 years of someone not a total asswipe and then we elect mecha hitler or someone somehow worse.
China is the interesting one. Since Deng , it’s been an interesting and varied toss up of goals and actions mixed with pragmatism and technological improvements.
I wish Hu’s reforms went further, the oppression of minorities halted and Xi wasn’t in charge
Lol sorry I got Xiaoping confused with Xi Jinping (im sick and my head is blurgh).
I was commenting on Jinping’s focus on power consolidation and breaking the term limit.
But watching China has been very interesting, especially their grip over global critical minerals and how the rest of the world is reacting. It’s been a wild ride for lithium stocks on the ASX lol
Looks like America (and the rest of the world) has to suffer him at this stage, unless they go full coup de tar mode.
I wonder what the future leaders will look like for Russia, USA and China…

Oof i was watching old Bush speeches about trading with other countries on youtube and felt weird when he sounded smarter than Trump.
Hopefully the next person can even undo some of the cords Trump has managed to tangle, if not cut completely
Fixing what trump has broken will be a generational project, and nobody will be given the time required.
Good thing no one has set a precedent for kidnapping or blowing up leaders.

Mmmm a very interesting one. I guess growing up during the Cultural Revolution after having your high-ranking dad purged makes you hungry lol
