re: #9 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))
I saw a video not long ago - on YouTube - and it was a Chinese economist explaining (quite well, to be honest) Xi Jinping’s economic vision for China going forward.
He had a line that made me chuckle: from memory, it was “Xi Jinping is looking ahead, economically speaking, to 2050. Whereas President Trump is looking backwards, to 1950.”
I chuckled at that because it was a pretty spot-on observation. Trump’s policies do nothing but advertise his obsolescence and his hopelessly fossilized thinking.
