Xi is such a strong, manly man. Trump has no choice.

Those Chinese trademarks gifted to the orange rapist and his favorite hosebag are really paying off for Xi.

From that pic, looks like DJT also loaned Xi some of his Orange Glow makeup!

He's been busy trying to make the countries on the Most Corrupt List Great Again.

I would watch like a hawk and I wouldn't "collaborate" on anything critical.

Windmills...hey China, how about using your weird influence with Trump to get him to invest American resources mightily in sustainable power...like windmills and solar.
I do wonder how China handles having a powerful leader clearly in the grip of cognitive decline...my guess is they don't let them have the keys to the kingdom and the nuclear missiles.

Or how they deal with a powerful US leader in that condition.

Most likely with supreme respect, and Trump won't know he's having his own pockets picked in the form of giving what's left of our world influence over to China.

Let em have it. The US is gonna need a long, long restoration period after the current unpleasantness.
