'Flaccid performance': Trump slammed in op-ed for failing to handle Chinese leader

Raw Story  

On the heels of President Joe Biden’s comprehensive exchange with Chinese President Xi Jinping, the Daily Beast issued a stark reminder to any Americans thinking about hopping back into bed with Donald Trump. “That’s a far cry from Trump’s flaccid performance.” Rothkopf’s opinion piece published Friday heaped praise on Biden’s handling of diplomatic relations with China both as a Vice President and the nation’s commander-in-chief. The Daily Beast writer celebrated Biden’s successful bid to improve communications with the powerful nation, his mastery of complex international politics, and actionable gains on key issues that include resumed military-to-military communications and joint efforts to curtail the spread of fentanyl. He was presidential.” The author argues that things would have gone very differently had the nation been represented by Trump: A golf course would likely have been involved, as would strange praise for North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and tensions over the former president's racist moniker for the coronavirus.
