White House official photographer Daniel Torok just announced that all of the Beijing trip photographs have been uploaded to the White House Flickr Account. I was hoping Torok captured this moment, and indeed he did.

China blacklisted him, sanctioned him, blocked him, and then Chairman Xi ended up having to shake his hand. Because Donald J Trump.

Thank the Lord!!!
Marco has become a compelling figure. I hated him in 2016 and now I’m wondering openly who my ‘28 choice will be.
That’s a testament to second chances in life, and to DJT.
I never hated him, just didn’t trust him. Now its different. Maybe he just needed to have someone guide him to his true calling. If the election were today I would vote Rubio. Vance is too scripted like all politicians and honestly he doesn’t have much experience on the world stage. Rubio can answer any question, even stupid ones, with clarity and calm, much like Trump. Time will tell.
I hope Sec Rubio has learned enough to be able to tell the Bush handler crowd to pound sand.
Nice shots. Hopefully one had Mark Carney’s name on it.
The black and white photos show Trump in a very classy way.
I have never had any interest in visiting any Presidential library. I pray I live long enough to visit President Trump’s library.
(Not saying I’m getting old, just am expecting a long line.)
I guess I didn’t know that Secretary Rubio was on China’s sh!t list. Will have to look for the back story. Regardless, I’m thrilled that Sad Panda had to eat crow. 😎💥🇺🇸💥🇺🇸
Neither did I. Gonna have to do some digging as well.
Quick search…it surrounded Marco Rubio’s criticism of China’s treatment of the Uyghur population and other human rights violations while he was a senator. Apparently they tweaked how his name is spelled in Chinese to allow entry into the country.
Thank you for the why the no-like Rubio stance. Historic handshake.
Can’t say I liked Rubio as a senator either. A class one gang of eight for way too many years. Still don’t trust him and, sorry but way to many people has used President Trump’s choice to pretty much like anyone until he don’t and is very forgiving. While Rubio doesn’t look like a snake anymore, his bites were deep. Don’t let President Trump down Rubio.
Remember how musk went dath vader bad on trump after his stint as the golden boy. Trump was calling musk his son 🤨and musk was calling Trump his dad.
As long as someone is an asset to certain people everything is just fine but when their not the snake is revealed.
Seriously?!
Allow me to expand on your caption: China blacklisted him, sanctioned him, blocked him … unleashed a lethal virus into the world to destabilize his presidency; worked with Biden Democrats to flood key districts with fake ballots to remove him from office; bribed, blackmailed, and bullied American influencers to remove him from office and try to kill him … AND THEN Chairman Xi ended up having to shake his hand, because Donald J Trump rose again, neutralized the totalitarian leader’s proxies, cut off his oil, tossed sand into the gears of his Belt and Road initiative, and threw his BRICS experiment into disarray.
i find the image of PT in the background of this pic most compelling.
he seems to be pleased at connecting those two.
is it a clue as to who “the apprentice” really is?
That guy in the background between Xi and Trump, what’s he got his hand on?
He is taking the lint out of his belly button
Yelp….It’s there…..but why? Very secure settings supposedly….
In the dark days of Obama when it seemed that all was lost. The great experiment of individual freedom was being corrupted and dimming into a socialist dream and hope (how ironic the hope and change) was almost gone……..
Some of us, (more than we will ever know perhaps), prayed for a new leader. America has always been blessed when times were overwhelmingly bleak, with a new leader to step up and pull the country together and put it back on course.
Our prayers were answered, warts and all we got a apex predator trained in the corporate jungle to prey upon the madness of the ones wishing to enslave the world.
Keep being the lion President Trump.
Rise up and rise up again until lambs become lions.
Praise God and God bless the United States of America.
I love your post. Yes it has been that kind of week, month, and years, when all seemed lost. Am grateful that I am not afraid anymore thanks to President Trump.
It has been and will be a struggle Retired IG. It is worth it. The remnant among us know truth. We demand justice.
“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land”
And a big thumbs up to Monica Crowley who does
such a remarkable job as Chief of Protocol of the United States and does all the
arrangements for this visit and is constantly by President Trump’s side every
day. She knows her job and does it well.
agree about Crowley…seems to be perfect for this role. Classy and certainly very attractive …another example of a Conservative woman representing our country and the Trump Administration in the best light.
Thank you Sundance, for sending the link to view all of these amazing pictures. I had a good time viewing them. I notice both leaders have a coif hairdo of their own, that Chairman Xi’s tie tends to “hang to the right” in several photos etc. LOL.
Honestly I have tears in my eyes over how Chairman Xi did so much to welcome President Trump and the entire US Delegation. Wounds healed, and a path forward to a greater world to come.
The only downer is that I am giving myself a belly ache thinking about the Kenyan. Captain Obvious the Chairman Xi didn’t like him so much either.
It’s more than a shame to think of all that was lost under the Kenyan and the Autopen. But I am tired of mourning that nightmare.
God/dess Bless President Trump and Chairman Xi. And Amen.
I was against President Trump going to China, thought it much too dangerous, too many opportunities for an assassination attempt. It was clear that Yahweh
s hand of protection was firmly on President Trump and all who were with him. I will admit that I am very short-sighted about my idea of what that meeting should have been about. China declared war against the United States years ago. Not a kinetic war but a silent, covert war, a war of death to America by a thousand small cuts. My biggest beef is the biological attack with COVID-19, a deliberate attack which has killed 1.2 million Americans and which China has never been held accountable for. Then there is the chemical attack with fentanyl, which has killed millions, then the theft of our secrets, military, NASA, research and development, proprietary software, continuous hacking, funding violence and riots, and on and on. I would have liked those topics addressed before pulling another "Nixon" and bringing China more prosperity. I am against "Making China Great Again". They hate our guts and are right now plotting ways to destroy us and I see no reason to help them speed the process along. There is a term for giving aid and comfort to our enemy, it is called treason. I know that I do not have all the facts or see the big picture as President Trump and his Administration does. I only know what I have seen and am now seeing and it looks a lot like helping the people that have wanted us destroyed for years. Chinas economy is very weak; their military is very weak because of the oil shortage. Planes, ships, cars, trucks, all run on petroleum products, in other words, oil. This would have been an opportune time to address these grievances with Xi Jinping, but money always seems to win out over human suffering and justice, in my short-sighted humble opinion.Here’s how I see the big picture. China will never be the USA. Russia will never be the USA. And neither will anybody else. Unlike other cultures in existence for literally thousands of years, the USA is unique on the world stage: a relatively new, 250 year old Constitutional Republic.
One nation under God.
The US Constitution codifies freedom of religion, freedom of expression, a representative government and the right of individual citizens to defend ourselves against tyranny.
President Trump isn’t trying to turn anyone else into who we are. That would be a fool’s errand, especially now, when it is so very apparent how we have been (almost fatally) compromised by hostile, foreign actors who set about weaponizing our Constitutional Republic against our own interests, as well as against the interests of other nations.
Thanks to all the bad actors on the world stage today, it is now every man (and nation) for himself. Why should any nation respect any other corrupt and exploited nation on it’s way down that proverbial globalist chute?
Enter President Trump, who knows exactly how to course correct
via economic trade deals that will ultimately benefit *all* sovereign nations. And just in the nick of time, too.
Bottom line: We don’t want to be China, and they don’t want to be us. But we can agree to favorable terms that will benefit both of our nations.
Some suggest all major powers are colluding behind the scenes, coordinating the shift to the coming “Multi-Polar Global Order”.
In this view, everything you see is theater.
All signs align with this view.
I understand reminds me of Jonah who had Gods protection just didn’t understand what God had planned for Nineveh.
Covid didn’t kill 1.2 million Americans. The flu did.
From, “Little Marco” to “Say Hello To My Little Friend”.
You don’t need to be an expert in behavioral psychology to interpret the photo.
A picture is worth a thousand words.

Notice how the line of Chinese VIPs are staring directly at President Trump as Xi shakes Rubio’s hand: if looks could kill … .
Love it! Thank you, Sundance!
Just like the Biden Whitehouse, except for the animated facial expressions of life.
Trump looks like he was doing a face imitation of chairman xi. photo of his face looks ai ish but I don’t think it is. 😳
Xi’s body language. I notice the subtlety handshake on top of PDJT’s – Chinese way of saving face .. smiling more than in other usual heads of state trips to China – as seen in the White House photos here. Thank you Sundance.
David Rockefeller must be spinning.
Thinking of the many who were deplatformed, demonetized, censored, and blocked by tech platforms doing the bidding of the US government, as part of its unconstitutionally enforcing the manufactured plandemic and coerced shots bioterror 2020-2025.

Evidently China is the model the US government seeks to emulate.
The frameworks are being readied for the US pivot to diminished totalitarian state under China.
Supported by Trump.
Because of President Trump we are respected again.
By those who hold the greatest power.
Incredible.
💥🇺🇸✝️🦅
I do not believe that Xi will come to PJDT’s home… too afraid what will happen in his absence.
