China will 'eat our lunch,' Biden warns after clashing with Xi on most fronts
2021-02-12
[AlAhram] 'They're investing billions of dollars dealing with a whole range of issues that relate to transportation, the environment and a whole range of other things. We just have to step up,' Biden said

U.S. President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...Candidate for president in 2020. Joe's wife and daughter weren't killed by a drunk driver. He didn't graduate with three or even two degrees, wasn't in the top half of his law class, and his daddy didn't come home from a hard day's work in the mines and play football with the guys. The NAACP hasn't endorsed him every time he's run. If you believe Tara Reade you probably shouldn't vote for him....
and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping held their first telephone call as leaders and appeared at odds on most issues, even as Xi warned that confrontation would be a "disaster" for both nations.

#17  Joe's plan will be another massive spending plan, (a Five-Year Plan?) to close the 'Chinese Gap', as NoMoreBS suggested at #12.

#14  Ever notice how those big infrastructure spending plans and budgets never seem to actually fix anything?

Weird huh?

#13  All Expected of Joe after all

#12  Understand that a huge spending plan for infrastructure will come with requirements for UNIONS and union scale for the work. Both a payoff for senior union leaders and massive impact on open shop states. Nothing these bastards do is about serving the people, everything is about graft and looting the public coffers. And Joe is a pro at graft, even in his advanced dotage.

#11  Pay no attention to what Biden says. Watch very carefully what he does.

#9  eat someone's lunch
Slang. to best someone; to defeat, outwit, or win against someone. (Like a school bully taking away children's lunches and eating them.) The upstart ABC Computer Company is eating IBM's lunch.

#6  President Biden warned that China will "eat our lunch" on Thursday after speaking with Chinese President Xi Jinping for the first time Wednesday night since becoming president – a sentiment that seemed to contradict some of his statements on the campaign trail.
Biden's comments on Thursday seemed in direct opposition to his position in 2019.
"China is going to eat our lunch? Come on, man!" Biden said at a rally in 2019.
He was critical of former President Donald Trump's tariff battle with China.


So he's a lying POS. What's new?

#4  Confucius say, "Eat on the run,
