Mr. Blinken's most excellent trip to China
Better than Yellen, but the CCP still looks at Blinken as a feckless emissary
At least Antony Blinken does not have dried cat food and cat hair on his cardigan like Fraulein Yellen. When Blinken visited last year he had this sudden back ailment that looked bizarre in the handshake photos with Xi. Was he bowing to Xi? If it was a bow, he should have owned it and done a real bow.
Blinken is taken better than Yellen by the CCP, but Blinken’s own duplicitous and mischievous behavior with the 51 Intelligence Officer Memo puts him in the same camp as Jake Sullivan: smarmy and untrustworthy.
To be effective in international dialogue, one needs to emanate two things: clarity and resolve. Because of the lack of a moral, known starting point, clarity and resolve are anathema to the Blinken/Sullivan crowd. Blinken reeks of smarminess and the foreign diplomatic audience can smell it as soon as the Air Force aircraft opens the doors and Blinken’s Team steps out.
Blinken had perhaps three key agenda items:
Stopping the arms sales from China to Russia
Addressing Chinese economic “overcapacity” (a globalist elite term for the malign targeting and destruction of American market sectors by China)
Tensions between China and the US over Taiwan, TikTok, Fentanyl, and related matters.
China will pretend to converse with Blinken as Blinken pretends to assert an America Agenda.
Until Blinken shows clarity resolve for an American agenda and a zeal for victory over the CCP vice managing the CCP, he’ll still be looked at by the CCP as some lightweight goofball from a declining America who took Chinese money through the UPenn Biden Center and is now trying to be tough with China.

I still recall when Antony Blinken was made Secretary of State. I am relatively aware of what's going on and I was surprised that I had never heard of him before. Usually, regardless of which party has the Oval, their cabinet picks are well known to the public that is paying attention. I do pay attention and I didn't know a blink about Blinken. Now that I've watched him perform, I can see why. He is lackluster on his best day and weak every day. He projects indecision and lack of resolve, which is par for the course of the "administration" he is part of. I look forward to the day when he is returned to his garage band where the only thing he will do poorly are cover songs.
That looked like the spiders meal walking right up to the spider. 🕷️
If body language spoke. That’s what I saw.
