How’s the Chinese election looking? Who are the major candidates and who is in the lead?
Oh, they stopped when they got to their best leader. Why keep trying when the best is clear?

Only one bowl of poison per china.
They’re saving them for the next time China becomes many smaller Chinas as is tradition.

Who were the candidates again? Was it a close election? I wasn’t following so I’m not sure which candidates won the primaries for their parties.

You know the joke is that they’re not a democracy, right?

The joke isn’t the primaries, dude. The joke is that they’re complaining about the US candidates being two bad choices, when they have no choices.

Hmm, I just can’t tell the difference between this normal US President and this psychotic shrieking banshee. I guess they’re just bowls of poison. Oh well.
China would rather have Trump because I doubt he would defend Taiwan. He just wants to end trade with China, while simultaneously praising Xi as brilliant. Biden also wouldn’t pose for a dumbass photo-op with Kim Jong-un. China very clearly has a favorite because they know Trump would maximize domestic turmoil
The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it beside my seat. “Can I interest you in the chicken?” she asks. "Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it? To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked.
David Sedaris
But in this scenario does China want America to eat the shit platter and broken glass?
It’s not like China gets to vote on the matter.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they had tried.
They have hackers, money, and propaganda operatives.
Thanks for saying the obvious China
???
The orange wiggler actively started a trade war against China, encourages asian hate among his deplorables, and wants to do everything to hurt China.
Biden is willing to work with China, and Obama was pro-China.
They can’t figure it out? Really?
Me too, China. Me too.
Bro, there is clearly a less-bad choice.
I hate that that’s what we’re reduced to, but we have one deeply uninspiring and frustratingly out-of-touch candidate, and one completely psychotic narcissistic authoritarian candidate. There is a very obvious “correct” choice here, both as an American voter and as a human.
Bro, there is clearly a less-bad choice.
maybe, but it’s still bad nonetheless
…yes…? It’s also less bad than the alternative. And you’re not going to be able to persuade me that voting 3rd party in the general is a good idea, because it is most definitely not a good idea if you want to prevent Trump from getting into office.
I hate the two-party system too. But pretending it doesn’t exist is a great way to get steamrolled by it.
This wasn’t the point though. It is that both options are bad. Yes, one is objectively less bad, but I’d guess a majority of Americans will not vote for Biden but instead against Trump.
I will absolutely cast a vote for Biden, but not because I like Biden.
I think most of the goddamn country is of the same mind
… depends on one’s goal: a better or a worse America.
China and Russia, as the other superpowers, most definitely want a worse USA.
Iran wouldn’t mind destabilizing the infidels.
What’s boggling is that there are American voters who apparently want a worse USA. Though that seems to apply to quite a few western democracies.
That’s not good enough.
So you want to just hand the presidency to fascists because Biden is, while not an outright fascist, an extremely milquetoast candidate?
Pull your head out of your ass and at least try to be realistic.

For decades many voters in Western nations have collectively held their noses and voted for the person who they believed would do the least amount of damage.
This isn’t democracy in action. It’s simply having nobody to vote for.
This is very much a millennial perspective. Looking at a demographic table, it’s overwhelmingly obvious that most Americans are boomers. And older people vote more often than younger people.
We may see Trump and Biden as weak candidates, but this is literally what they want. It is democracy in action. We just don’t outnumber the older Americans lol. It’s obviously changing. Otherwise Sanders wouldn’t have made it as far as he did in 2016 and 2020.
I was born in the early 60’s so nowhere close to a millenial.
Then you’re bucking the trend of your generation!
Punk rock!
So wise 🙏😩
