Donald Trump and Xi Jinping wrapped up their meeting after about two hours of talks covering Taiwan, trade and other differences in US-China relations.
The meeting was behind closed doors and the White House didn’t offer an official readout afterwards,
but China’s official Xinhua news agency said Xi told Trump that if Taiwan was not handled correctly, the US and China risked “clashes and even conflicts, putting the entire relationship in great jeopardy”.
That followed publi…

Four years ago I made a video explaining why Gordon G. Chang is an incompetent liar who found a way to turn disinformation about the Chinese economy bordering market manipulation into money.
Today, ahead of talks with Xi Jinping, even Donald Trump agreed that he doesn't know what he's talking about.
Gordon G. Chang has predicted the death of China's economy since the 90s. As we can see, he has not been right once.

Trump may be on the verge of tying the United States to China irrevocably:
Trump and Xi Jinping are reportedly considering a deal to allow China to invest $1 trillion in the United States,
largely to build factories on American soil.
It would be an unforced error of world-historic proportions.
“I don’t blame China,”
Trump told business leaders in Beijing in 2017.
“After all, who can blame a country for being able to take advantage of another country for…

The U.S. is in a deep hole,
and we could expect Trump to dig it much deeper this evening
-- it's a relief that Trump's big address was a nothing burger

Cover of *The Economist* featuring two prominent figures.

Donald Trump appears blurred and shouts, while

The headline reads, "Never interrupt your enemy when he’s making a mistake."

The Chinese president, Xi Jinping, has put forward a four-point proposal for peace and stability in the Middle East,
as he called for the world not to be allowed to “revert to the law of the jungle”.
In the most significant remarks he’s made so far about the crisis in the Middle East,
Xi said China would play a “constructive role” in promoting peace talks in the Middle East.
He made the comments during a meeting with Khaled bin Mohamed, the crown prince of Abu Dhabi, …
