To say the first major diplomatic summit between the United States and China was an unmitigated mess would be an understatement. Apparently U.S. Secretary of State Tony Blinken thought it would be of value for the domestic audience if he was to lambast the Beijing delegation in public and on camera. His efforts were a complete fail as the Chinese knew everything was presented for domestic consumption… so, the Red Dragon threw fire right back onto the purple hair and obviously stunned an unsettled U.S. Secretary.
The train wreck was started by challenging China publicly, in front of the international press, likely believing such an aggressive posture would weaken Republican criticism about the Job Biden administration being soft/weak on China. However, using a joint press conference as the forum only provided insult to the Beijing delegation.
Public insults are expressions of weakness, not strength.
It was visibly obvious that Secretary Blinken stupidly did not anticipate the Chinese officials would retaliate in their remarks responding to him.
The Chinese diplomatic team is exceptionally skilled at verbal combat; they use facts and evident weakness to their advantage. Blinken’s foolish decision gave the Chinese officials a rare opportunity to dress down the Secretary of State very publicly in front of the international media.
Secretary Blinken was visibly shocked and destabilized by the strength of the returning words from the Chinese team. His response was extremely defensive; ‘he doth protest too much’, and he was incoherent. Blinken also repeated JoeBama’s ridiculous catch-phrase “America is back.”
Additionally, despite Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan’s criticism of China, there was not one word on Beijing’s responsibility for the coronavirus. Nothing about China allowing COVID to become a dangerous pandemic, and no criticism of Beijing for their continued refusal to cooperate with international investigations of the origins of the virus, including inspections of the Wuhan bio-labs.
Overall this was a pathetic (weak) and sophomoric (feeble) attempt at diplomatic confrontation; while being disrespectful and completely devoid of fact points to frame the purpose of the diplomatic meeting. The first rule in any negotiation or confrontation is to use the behavior, the accepted empirical action of your adversary, against them.
The U.S. delegation did not cite any factual examples only platitudes and generalities. This allowed a much more prepared Chinese delegation to use the stage to frame the confrontation as without merit, and embarrass the U.S. contingent. After Blinken used the catch-phrase a “rules based international order”, the Chinese shot back with a big truth: “the United States does not talk for the world, only for the United States government.” The U.S. team was dead silent and without retort.
The U.S. team was so badly beaten by the Chinese, so brutally caught off-guard, Secretary of State Blinken had to call the press back into the room after his team put together counterpoints. Yes, the U.S. team called the reporters back into the room -after opening remarks- just so they could make statements the international audience would hear. THAT is embarrassing.
All-in-all a major fail on so many levels. The JoeBama diplomacy now appears weaker and more reactionary than the Jimmy Carter diplomacy. Adversaries will take good advantage of the U.S. ineptitude.

A picture says a thousand words…
Well, 2 weeks ago Biden admin officials were taking up the a*** with anal swabs while visiting China. Now China is giving it to them in the mouth
…AND RUSSIAN PRESIDENT VVP- CALLED pRESIDENT JB…..FOR PUBLIC DEBATE WORLDWIDE…I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS JB DISASTER……
Slo Joe is going to be right on it, as soon as the Russians submit their debate questions to Lying Psaki, and he has time for someone to come up with some answers that he will read in front of a green screen.
But but but, the hair sniffer-in-chief is sooooo busy destroying the USA that he doesn’t have the time right now to put Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin (the ruthless KGB agent) in his place.
Also Putin wished Xiden good health
Hahahahahaha
Chinese delegates probably graduated from better US colleges with better grades and debate skills.
China gives Biden a hiden…
I would be afraid Joe would say something like, “I surrender” or go literally ballistic …
I remember Thomas Sowell said his biggest fear about obama was if America was attacked by Iran he would surrender without a fight.
C’mon man
I watched about 3 minutes of that Chinese woman strapping on her DILDO and shoving it up Blinken’s ass. What a FUCHING disgrace. In a couple of months China is going to own us completely. All they have to do is release another Chinese Flu on us and it is all over.
China will likely invade Taiwan; a country that we are expected to defend with nuclear weapons if necessary. Since Biden and his administration are so weak (think Chamberlain), China knows that it can invade with no expectation of a response from the Biden administration. This will set up further bold moves on the part of China, perhaps leading to a much bigger conflagration. God help us!
Frankie – Although this is what happened, metaphorically speaking. We do try to set the bar a wee bit higher here at CTH.
Perhaps you meant to post at ZeroHedge?
This kind of description is unwanted, unneeded, and beneath the dignity of all here including you, Frankie.
You have the ability to express yourself in much more civilized words.
Please, civility is always the best choice.
And ?? that kind of thinking leads to censorship, banning, and civil degradation.
He took it up the arse.
When they visited China, probably a ploy to install microchips in the Biden officials brains.
Score early in the first period: China 1/Biden 0
Trump 10 lol
Nope..declared a mismatch and the U.S. admin has called Uncle.
That’s how Uncle Joe got his nickname don’t cha know ?
President Xiden’s foreign policy seems about as coherent as everything else he has done so far. Anyway, who is he trying to fool? Everyone knows Joe is in Bejing’s pocket.
…and Joe’s pocket is in Beijing.
that’s why the China delegation could get away with dressing down Biden’s man in our country.
China has bought and paid for most of the Biden team; they have no respect for this adversary.
It’s not just Biden’s Cabinet. They also own Mitch and the Uni-Party. The Chamber of Commerce. Our Universities. Governors and state governments like Kemp’s in Georgia. They bought Swalwell when he was a city councilman of a small city–this was a decade ago! They got all our Federal Personnel files from Obama. Not to mention Patent Office files. They built a Super-Bug with Tony Fauci at the Wuhan Bat Lab and are getting funded again. The Clintons sold them military secrets. The Bidens have been on their payroll for years. They make our CheatWare Voting Machines and tally our votes for us in Shenzhen. The Entire Federal Government has been run for the benefit of China FOR DECADES.
Until Trump.
Hence the Election Fraud Coup to install Employee Biden.
We’ve been infiltrated by communist China for quite some time.
There are Confucius Institutes all over our country. Colleges, Universities, and even K-12,
https://www.nas.org/blogs/article/how_many_confucius_institutes_are_in_the_united_states
Blinkin’s opening statement was so ham fisted and out of bounds, I can only think that it was intended to provoke the response it got from China.
“The U.S. delegation did not cite any factual examples only platitudes and generalities.”
Democommunism is about The Feelz, false narrartives, hoaxes, pretending not to know things and assuming that the audience is clueless and ignorant.
Guess ole Dementia Joe found out what “Zaldrizes buzdari iksos daor!*” means. “DRACARIS!*”
(From GOT: “A dragon is not a slave.” and either “BURN” or “FIRE” depending–an order to your dragon to let loose the flames of infernal Valyria!
Unlike the domestic left, the international left knows exactly who and what Biden is and represents. As a country and competitor, China gains when the US loses. They will be winning bigly so much they will be tired of winning. Of course, it is exactly in times like that when someone makes a mistake.
Remember when Hilary said to always have a public and private position?
Well, here we go….
Except, the Chinese knew it too ?
Love your graphic of the fire-breathing dragon Sundance. A perfect illustration of this slow-moving train wreck of a government that is imploding as we all watch in dismay.
Look, either we are more awake, or these people in office are more power-mad. But this whole thing is a shit show. No other way to put it.
Sorry.
But but but . . . . we’ll vote ’em all out next time! (If there IS such a thing as a “next time” next time.) SPIT!!!
I think the new voting process is now ”set in place”… with lessons learned, the next one will be even better…. get the proper voting ballot paper specs for instance…
Life without our True President has consequences
Election Fraud/Theft/Irregularities have consequences.
‘I Won’ has a whole new meaning now.
That was Drogon the Khaleesi’s favorite dragon destroying the Lannister army from GOT.
This is just the beginning. Displaying for the world what a complete and total fraud everything about the Demented Joebama administration is will open the door for bad actors to feel embolden. What a bunch of eunuchs. These idiots are a disgrace
Xi foreign policies are for China Biden foreign policies are for China.
This also happens because the whole world knows this administration is not legit.
Biden jackasses think other countries believe their lies and posturing before the camera. Hell nobody believes these frauds.
China is going to make America take it in the shorts with these Biden clowns running things.
This is what hapopens when God knows their clown show is not legit. President Trump, deep state dems and repubs, know Trump really won and still wins.
“Hell nobody believes these frauds.”
A significant part of our idiocracy did and still does. But idiots deserve what they get. Unfortunately, the rest of us don’t.
“This also happens because the whole world knows this administration is not legit.”
And the American media is having a harder and harder time pretending to NOT know that fact…
“American media is having a harder and harder time pretending”
Never fear, they have had plenty of time to practice. Never underestimate their degree of denial, or the severity of their TDS.
Fair point. You think China won’t use that to their advantage, to continue to destabilize our nation?
A simple statement of “Yes, we understand that your President Biden was elected by manipulating the results in several of your states, and here’s evidence.” would bring the whole USA down in civil war, Republicans would be at Democrat throats in a second, media would be all over, it would be chaos. The Judicial branch was barely able to keep the lid on by refusing to acknowledge anything had merit, and a Presidential Recall has no precedent or constitutional grounds.
China will never bring up the election fraud. They were part of it.
MSM talking heads all believe them. Not to mention “The View”, and probably People magazine. Whatta joke.
Everyone around the world knows the criminal establishment stole the election and gave it to a demented old puppet.
What did the US team expect? Praise?
The Chinese delegation should have asked Blinkin what international rule of order Ballot Fraud falls under.
/sarc
Now that would be an interesting play. Declare the President and his team as illegitimate representatives. How could the CCP know? Well the CCP were the ones flipping the votes.
It’s our oligarchs against their oligarchs. Simple as that.
Who will win?
Better question to ask is, who loses ?
Us.
Cheating to obtain, and, then having the stuttering drools to think you can ACTUALLY step in and do a serious job with serious adversaries with serious consequences is the height of hubris. It’s the Children of the Corn administration.
The complete incompetence of the Biden Administration, whether it be in addressing the border situation or foreign policy, is agonizing to watch, as it is impossible not to make comparisons with the competence of the Trump administration. Trump is very sorely missed.
President Trump or Secretary Pompeo would have never conducted themselves this way. What a bunch of amateurs.
“incompetence in… addressing the border situation”
That’s not a defect. That’s a feature. It’s intentional.
So true.
And we are only a few months in to the stolen election.
God help us.
It’s not really incompetence. IMO Failure is the goal of the democommie party. It’s all part of the Buraq plan.
The Border crisis, the intentional destruction of our energy independence, and everything else that hurts America.
It’s on purpose.
Calling them incompetent implies that they are not able to perform the task. When we realize what the real goal is, it is obvious they are very good at what they do. They are accomplishing their goal and we are barely 90 days in
Is it wise to try to publicly embarrass one’s employer? Asking for a friend.
tl;dr
China fires back; Tony blinks.
?
I’ve got a feeling that Tony has been Blinkin his whole life.
Russia ad China are laughing their arses off at us via Biden.
This is even worse than Hillary and Obama combined.
This is like a real life SNL series. The problem is that it is tragic for our country.
I see it as a plus. It makes it easier to correct the wrong when the wrong is seen as so wrong.
How do the fraud voting machines fit into that scenario?
We can vote out hearts out, have photo IDs etc but when the algorithm disagrees and weights your votes as less or just flips it to the opposition, how is that over come when it is not being addressed?
I’m no angry with you. Just frustrated and not seeing this nightmare end. The traditional approach of voting them out is gone. All I can say is puddles of blood today, rivers of blood tomorrow if there is not out right submitting, which seems to be what we are doing.
It will take the American people to wake-up. The sooner the better. Biden and administration are presently negatively making the awareness much sooner and it is a good thing.
We need an avalanche of people awareness NOW! Biden and crew are unwittingly expediting the process.
Most days I can barely look at the headlines.
Biden is part of the Build Back Better (BBB) agenda. He campaigned on it. I tried to post a graphic on what that is, using their own words and it was rejected at CTH. The World Economic Forum has a “reset” video that sums it up. BBB is their catchy motto for it.
John Lennon would be so proud of this mess. Remember his song, Imagine? Dreamy utopians that will turn this into a global disaster. Th evil globalists will lead the way as they benefit from it. That’s what we have!
The problem is that it is tragic for our country.
… and the world!
TEAM US – the not ready for prime-time players.
I am ashamed of my fellow Americans who voted for this. My God!
Most of us didn’t. Besides its hard to think of anyone as true ‘American’ that did either. BTW its going to get worse before we may have window to reverse this.
Sorry but window is closed, blinds shut, shade lowered, curtains drawn.
Unless…
Your fellow Americans did not vote for it…
Voters didn’t put Biden in office.
Fair enough,
But the angst should be directed at your Republicons and Supreme Court and others.
My guess is PDJT is waiting in the wings for a rea F**k up, and it’s a coming.
I posted on an earlier thread that both a Russian and Bosnian neighbour of hours has commented to me that watch Putin, their family and friends back in Europe believe Xi and Putin are in cahoots, and that they see the U.S. as a failed State.
The U.S. seems to not care that the world communicates 24 hours a day.
Ask Australians if they feel safe with a neutered U.S. and China swaggering around down their way.
God bless PDJT
My guess is Trump is waiting to see how the midterms turn out. If we are trounced again with voter machine fraud and other fraud keeping the DEMS in control, he won’t run. There will be no point in anyone running for that matter as opposition. Then what need to be done will be so obvious, even the dimmest bulb against Biden should see the light.
We will not last to these midterms.
That is my concern…Look at the damage the imbecile has done in less than 100 days and he’s just warming up.
Australians are as covid locked down as the Brits. Australia and GB cannot even go outside. New Zealand is in even worse shape. Of course Putin and XI are sort of working together. Ask your friends if XI needs Putin to do anything to the US. The answer is NO!
Biden lost the popular vote by about nine million votes, according to Birne’s “dolphin-speakers.”
But…but…but…no fair…
A Regime installed by electoral fraud cannot call for “rules based international order”.
The whole world is laughing at America.
Very good point, Konrad. And in addition, the reason that the Biden Regime did not use a COVID argument here was because the Chinese know that the Biden campaign used it to facilitate electoral fraud.
And China knows it since they assisted with that massive electoral fraud.
China does not give favors for free, whether that be helping a politician’s son get crack money or helping a political party defraud a national election.
The Biden administration needed a little reminder as to the vast amounts of damaging information that China holds over their heads.
This is exactly the kind of incident we, as a country, will continue to be subjected to – when the entire world knows this is an illegitimate and utterly incompetant regime.
“Insult a man in public and he will despise you for it, insult him in private and he might thank you.”
Paraphrasing Ben Franklin.
Wynken, Blynken, and Nod … a fantasy bed-time story comes to mind when I hear the name of Blinkin and that’s what we’ve got, a fantasy led foreign policy team with a decrepit silly old senile grandfather who has no idea what’s happening … probably nods off if and when briefed by Blinkin.
There is an old Andy Griffith show where Opie kills a mother bird and has to raise three orphan babies. He names them Winken, Blinken and Nod. That was the first thing I thought of when watching these clowns.
…Blinkin belongs in a salon…
When the UniParty is in charge…Amateur hour begins at the border as well as foreign relations
The uniparty knows only one thing and one thing only; how to sell out their souls and thus their countrymen. Wretched creatures all. Their is no honor among thieves.
…then want to get in power or the glitz…
What an embarrassment. But what did you expect from a bunch of teenage diplomats. This is all an act anyway. The all powerful supreme ruler OBAMA loves China and everything it stands for. God please help us and deliver us from this total degradation of our country.
Tony should have a new nickname: ” Wink’in, Blinken and Nod”.
The big guy is “NOD”.
I’ve seen him Nod Off while his boss Buraq was doing a SOTU address.
Demorats must be so proud, getting humiliated on the world stage is their idea of “Getting America back” when you are done with your bondish fetish perhaps make America great again might make sense. Who am I kidding, they hate America and grovel before her enemies.
… being told off by the CCP Chinese for the entire world to see while the ”President” crashes his way up the staircase to Air Force One… what a demise! All this within two months from ”inauguration”! It’s only going to get worse! The media’s sweetheart! Hard to hide isn’t it guys?!
Did Blinky run to his safe spot and ask for his binky?
What a blinkin blankin bimbo!
As opposed to…

I was looking for the picture of the red carpet rolled out for him in China but can’t find it.
There is a blind character in the Mel Brooks parody, Robin Hood Men in Tights, named BLINKIN. It is worth the laugh to look it up and play the clips of this character.
Abe Lincoln, here?
No man, I said “Hey, Blinkin”
Well who did not see this one coming… Joebamma and his merry band of idiots. See what happens when you don’t own the media …. the truth gets out and boy is it an ugly truth…..
If you think this was a disaster, wait until China Inc. meets History Major, with zero experience, Ambassador Kathrine Tai for trade talks.
If Saturday Night Live still actually had funny writers, they would be having a field day.
Team Biden let this happen on our own soil……………………….in our own country.
This is what they WANT to happen.
What idiots and traitors. Though given the Occupier in Chief not to be unexpected. Below is the video that goes with the Sundance’s image.
The Chinese top leaders are sober. Blinken sitting next to a nut with purple hair, actually think he can deal with them. He actually said, ‘we know you are glad America is back, with all that sauce we are made of’. These dems think they are in a movie and I have seen this type of personalities before. They come in and think they are hot stuff, then as reality settles in , because even THEY think they can change reality, they see the cold, sober truth and are fired. So fitting that Biden fell three times today. I fill no pity for him with the way h e has disrespected President Trump and keeps on attacking him. And…this is just March. Everyone that is sober in this nation and other countries, see what a disaster this new clown show is.
” So fitting that Biden fell three times today. I fill no pity for him with the way h e has disrespected”
Biden was trying to show off by “running” up the stairs..
Look ma, no hands! Look ma, no teeth !
He’s lucky his false teeth didn’t come out.
I miss our President (Trump) so much………..
Wow, the US delegation truly got baked in Alaska. Our crack team of Blinking and Sullivan are no more adept at their roles as that vocal-frying Raggedy-Ann doll, Jen Psnarki.
Has anyone else been worried about how far the US has fallen in two short months- for we all know our adversaries will take full advantage of wounded prey, and doubly so as they sense the collapse of our military from within, this has me very nervous.
Not long ago (a week or two) , I was only concerned about being destroyed by enemies from within. Now the incompetence exuded by this farce of an adminstration has compounded my worries almost tenfold.
I am left to wonder how much longer I can behave myself. Not kidding.
Hang in there. You don’t want them to make an example out of you.
You are not alone… It is challenging.
I busy myself up with home projects and a new hobby. What maybe the best therapy is immersing yourself in family and if you like animals, pets. They take the edge off.
Oh snap.
This is the result of the “participation trophy” generation. That guy is completely inept, and on top of that, an idiot.
It’s sheer utter arrogance.
They’re right. Why should China be lectured by their employees?
Biden is facing more aggressive blowback from an unexpected source today. In public comments Turkey’s President Erdogan describes Biden as “unworthy of a president“
Wait till the get a load of imbecile Kamala. I doubt that any Muslim country will have any respect for her and her “intellect”. She is very vile. She was Hunter’s point man for the China sellout….
The whole world knows biden and harris stole the election
Even they know it. Only complete idiots believe it was actually a legitimate election. The rest that say it in public are just in on the scam.
This Jake Sullivan guy, Biden’s National Security Advisor, was involved in the Russia Hoax narratives, while over at the State Dept. He deserves to be embarrassed.
This is what happens when you are propped up by lies and a media that covers for you.
Blinken thought he could coast like he does in the US.
LIFE is not a dress rehearsal, this is real damage to our country.
The two US speakers in the delegation were unimpressive. They were visibly ill at ease, tentative in their remarks. Their body language, soft-mannered, sensitive and caring metro-male presentations were red meat for starved aggressors. They knew they were out of their comfort zones, and everyone around knew as well.
That’s the problem with liberals. They try to take on genuine aggressors with the same liberal tactics they use to persuade the rank and file, passive U.S. citizen.
Their best tool to deal with an aggressive China is to hire Trump.
Boy is this ever spot-on:
“Their body language, soft-mannered, sensitive and caring metro-male presentations were red meat for starved aggressors.”
Well said!
Thank you.
“The JoeBama diplomacy now appears weaker and more reactionary than the Jimmy Carter diplomacy.”
Jimmy Carter is no longer the most utterly incompetent and unprepared President in foreign policy! Obama was weak but it was deliberate because he hates America and made no secret of the fact but Carter just got owned time and time again because he was both naive and arrogant…but now he can finally die happy knowing that he has, at last, been beat!!
Carter nationalized the Department of Education in 1979. Easier to push propaganda that way, and it eliminates competition between the states. Now that the Smith Mundt Act of 1948 has been amended, propaganda in the US has been legal since 2012.
?itok=kwEl-88T
I was a teenager during the Carter years and I had enough sense even at that age to see what an idiot he was! The amount of damage done during his ONE four year term continues to this day! I was so happy and proud to cast my very first vote for President for Ronald Reagan!!
President Reagan screwed up by not getting rid of that.
Hahahahaha!!!
I’m remembering when the nincompoop media and Democrats repeatedly criticized how Trump did not say this or that to Putin or whoever. Incompetents without a clue as to how to do diplmacy, negotiations (Trump’s forte). They are helpless if they can’t use force, blackmail or bribery — which is why the U.S. ended up, pre-Trump, in so many crap trade deals and other agreements.
“Public insults are expressions of weakness, not strength.”
One would have thought this Blinken dope would have learned something from the Pentagon dopes disastrous attempts to publicly insult Tucker Carlson.
In a battle of wits, the inferior intellect seldom fares well against the superior intellect.
Did anyone mention Hunter?
Who?
Never heard of him.
