China Warns President Trump To Not 'Stab China In The Back'

The Telegraph: China warns Trump over North Korea: ‘Don’t stab us in the back’

China has hit back at Donald Trump over North Korea, with a top official blaming Washington and Pyongyang for raising tensions, while state media warned the US not to “stab China in the back”.

The US president said in two angry tweets at the weekend that he was “very disappointed” with China and that he would no longer allow Beijing to “do nothing” over North Korea.

Mr Trump has long believed that China holds the key to forcing North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons programme, given that Beijing is Pyongyang’s only diplomatic backer and a key trading partner.

Will the anti-Trumpers catch on?

China plays a long game, they know Trump isn't going to be around much longer. They don't respect or fear him.

Neither does the rest of the world.

Adolph Twitler's not gonna make it to the end of his term,

and nobody's scared of Trump.

A trade war, which is the only mild leverage the US has over China, would kill all the cheap Trump products, all the cheap Trump brands in China that Hair Twitler's grifting off of.

"Time is short we can't sit about watching videos "

It is a way of lampooning without getting called out for name calling.
(Also I picked it up from some one here.)

Lefty Anon felt the sting

I heard in May & June especially that this was the end. It was not.

So now the hope is pinned on 2020. We'll see. But a 2020 election contest would belie all the histrionics so far.

Maybe Kelley will get tired of it all and put all the tin hat people to shame.

Maybe the Pakistani trio talk and the donkeys get their goose cooked.
