    After saying he wanted to smooth things over with China and sending Blinken to meet with Xi which according to Blinken was productive Biden’s hoof in mouth disease quickly destroyed the meeting.

    No need for hostility and profanity. You make a good point, but should all of bidens policies that strengthen China and weaken the USA be ignored now just because he made that comment? Its easy to see why people take the CHINA JOE narrative. This does not UNDO any of that.

    Here are his exact words on it

    “The reason why Xi Jinping got very upset in terms of when I shot that balloon down with two box cars full of spy equipment is he didn’t know it was there,” Biden said.

    “That’s a great embarrassment for dictators,” he added, “when they didn’t know what happened.”

    This sounds more like biden trying to save face after the ULTRA EMBARRASSING spy balloon incident. This is what happens when you let China Joe speak without a teleprompter

    It's Biden who needs to figure things out. Smooth thins over with China or annoy them.

    Actions would be far more convincing than the typical liberal name calling while playing circle jerk with his rich donators behind closed doors.

    So like Trump saying meanie-head things about China in public but giving them a historically huge favor by pulling out of the transatlantic partnership?

    When did Biden admit it was a spy balloon? He has maintained it was a weather balloon. But behind closed doors and tucking it up with his rich donors he admits to knowing it was a spy balloon he let cross military bases before shooting it down. What a freaking clown! The WH is suppose to be clear if ting his ignorant comments AGAIN!

    Actions speak louder than name calling in private and ass kissing in public.

    he called them surveillance balloons.

    How could you not know that? It's like some people just make a huge effort to avoid information.

    Maybe the same way we got a leaked Trump/Enrique conversation between two world leaders… with no accountability.

    Yea probably XI is not really a dictator, can’t say the same for the other though. He has the corrupt government agencies attack his political opponents.

    Xi is an actual dictator. And there's no evidence Biden had "corrupt government agencies attack his political opponents." You are thinking of Trump. Trump demanded that. He campaigned on that. He's campaigning on that again. I'm glad we agree that Trump is a wannabe dictator, though.

    . . . this was at a campaign fundraiser . . . with press access. That isn't a "leak." Where do you come up with this ****?

    It wasn't "raided by an incumbent dictator." This was a warrant. Warrants aren't approved or even ordered by the President. No, Communist countries don't do this. I'm sorry if today is the first day you learned what a warrant is.

    Earth to popscott, you need to do some homework before making up stuff like this. The quote came from a fundraising event, not "a leaked conversation between to [sic] world leaders."

    "speaking to wealthy donors at the event for his 2024 reelection campaign, Biden depicted Xi as out-of-touch and embarrassed by the incident, which ended with the Air Force shooting down the balloon just off the East Coast.

    'The reason why Xi Jinping got very upset in terms of when I shot that balloon down with two box cars full of spy equipment is he didn’t know it was there,' Biden told the crowd.

    'No, I’m serious,' he added. 'That was the great embarrassment for dictators, when they didn’t know what happened.'"


    There were many, many, many more quotes from the event . . . because press was there . . . because it was an event. Not a private conversation between two politicians.

    It was raided at the “request” of the incumbent president…. Per the court documents… please do your homework…

    The court documents say nothing of the sort. Please stop making **** up. And "requests" aren't enough for a "raid." They would be in a Communist country. Here, there has to actually be a court-approved warrant. I'm sorry you are upset the the Dear Leader isn't above the law the way he would be in a Communist country.

    What does that have to do with a classified conversation between Trump/Enrique?
