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.

    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.

              Okay, I’m tired of talking to an obvious troll. Toodles.

              By the way, you forgot to downvote some of my posts. You better go back and downvote them because karma matters a lot on Lemmy.

                Must be your first time losing an argument on the internet.
