Blinken, who recently met with Xi and other Chinese leaders in Beijing to discuss the country’s contentious relations with the United States, told CBS’s “Face the Nation” show, “The president always speaks candidly; he speaks directly.

Xi: Yeah, I hate term-limits
Biden is a mess, Pelosi is a mess. Democrats are a mess.
Paul Pelosi bought more than $1 million in Nvidia just before massive subsidies were voted on.
That's just great. Let's double down on stupidity of a Dementia patient.
Make the situation in Asia worse by harding bad relations. Therefore guarantee more years of interstate friction and possibly war.
This administration is a mess.
