Had Donald Trump been the U.S. president hosting this week’s APEC meetings, I have no doubt that the headline from the event would have been unchanged. It would have been: “He’s a dictator.”

The only difference is it would be Xi Jinping who was saying it to describe Trump.

Other than that, though, a Trump-hosted APEC meeting would likely have been unrecognizably different from the successful and productive forum hosted by President Joe Biden.

    You do that every time you vote Democrat or Republican

      Yes, every time I vote D, I watch you shoot yourself in the dick.

        I’m glad I didn’t vote for genocide.

          You did, you’re just too blind to see it.

            No. I didn’t. Feel free to try and explain how I did, but you cannot.

      Because I’m sure whoever you vote for has a good chance of getting into office. For sure the president in 2024 will be neither Biden nor Trump. It’ll be whoever you vote for. It’s not like we only have two viable options or anything…

        Ironically the polling is showing RFK has a reasonable chace of winning. That opens up the lane for Jill Stein to compete as well.

          No it doesn’t. No poll shows he has a reasonable chance of winning. That’s a lie.

            20% absolutely is. He can easily gain 10% more to get to 30% and win it.

              How can he ‘easily gain 10%?’ Why would it be easy? You say a lot of things without any evidence to support them.

              Also, that was a telephone poll, so it was extremely inaccurate.

                Pure projection from you. His mainstream opposition is incredibly weak in Biden and Trump, so yes it is possible and historic to see how much the duopoly is failing.

                  Projection? Where’s your evidence he will easily gain 10%? You sure didn’t show it to me. But you did insult me.

                    Stop putting words in other peoples mouths. I said he can, not will.
