Trump calls them as he sees them. Yeah, he's a bit unorthodox with his Twitter communications, but so what. He's a non politician and I'll take his way over the politically correct BS that we've come to expect from everyone else.
As for your name calling of Trump..... he's president and a multi millionaire if not a billionaire, and here you are, an anonymous message board poster. LOL
Turn that around.
Trump is president of the Untied States but still feels the need to engage in juvenile name calling. That is a bit unorthodox for a 71 year old man, let alone president of the Untied States. And not calling people juvenile name or derogatory names is not politically correct BS. It's called being mature.
And he's right, considering that "Loudmouth" Lavar Ball won't give him any credit and doesn't seem to understand that shoplifting is a serious offense.
He should not have intervened. The pompous twits should have done 6 months in jail. What kind of spoiled idiot thinks its ok to steal like that especially in a foreign country?
After 8 years of watching our society implode from political correctness, Mr. Trump is a breath of fresh air. The swamp creatures continue to belch out their noxious fumes as evidenced from this thread, but you and I understand they are nothing but impotent screechings.
If the neverTrumpers were so right, then why has the stock market continued to defy gravity and rise to all time records, why is unemployment now approaching 2000 lows, labor participation is up, and the biggest problem for factories is lack of drug-free applicants.
Years of liberal coddling led to the sorry spectacle of three rising college basketball stars getting busted for shoplifting at a Chinese luxury mall. President Trump surprised many of us by intervening to get these idiots out, and at least one of the fathers, backed up by jeering liberals, now is dissing the President.
I agree with the President. He acted generously, was rewarded with ingratitude, and should have therefore left them to rot until his next trip to China in a year or two.
The Chinese authority did NOT crush the students "with tanks". That famous video actually showed the tank tried to avoid that young worker in white shirt, and he was not hurt at all. Yes some students died, maybe many, but not brutally crushed by tanks.
The student leaders were not "executed" at all. Many fled to US embassy and eventually came to the US, such as Wang Dan and Chai Ling. Some stayed in China and got prison time. Not a single person was sentenced to death.
BTW, the protesters killed quite a few soldiers and policemen too. One PLA soldier was burned alive by the "protesters" in Tiananmen Square.
At least a thousand unarmed people were mowed down by PLA thugs using tanks and automatic weapons. Some estimates range into multiple thousands dead. This odious regime has never even acknowledged the obvious facts, made even more poignant by reports of mothers being arrested merely for inquiring about their missing children.
China is a horrible regime that totally disregards human rights. They totally censor all media and have effectively banned Google search. They imprison critics of the regime, even people who merely point out the rampant corruption. They always paint the U.S. in the most negative light.
This poster consistently defends China and actively tries to rewrite history. Elsewhere, he/they defends China's occupation of Tibet. The free Western internet is full of these paid shills trying to promote a positive image of what essentially is an evil government.

So I looked it up. Thousands were injured. Hundreds were killed.
China may be our real adversary here. Keeping the U.S. squabbling with Russia while they take over things seems like a good plan to me.
While the U.S. is busy backing out of trade agreements, China is busy making them.

Oh I only corrected your false claims with facts, which does not suit your agenda, and then you started to make ridiculous assumptions and lie. Obviously you know too little about China and thus lost every debate. Consequently, you turned your frustration and anger to baseless accusations.
Western media are 99% negative on China about literally everything. As a person who grew up in China and received American education as well, I consider it my responsibility to introduce facts to both sides (yes I post on Chinese forums too). Average Americans are extremely ignorant about China. How many can even name more than three Chinese cities? So when I state some facts and do not feed to the "China-is-evil" cliché, don't be angry and try your best to listen.
I never tried to argue against your ideology, but list historical facts.

Every nation has its historical context. China is light years better than decades ago in all the aspects you listed.
Yes China has problems. Tell me which developing country does not? Saudi Arabia? Turkey? Russia? Iran? South Africa?
Seriously you want a big nation with thousands of years of history to suddenly think and act like westerners with Christian tradition? Is it even possible even if it is legitimate? You want 500 million farmers who care nothing about politics to play the election game right now and decide policies? Over 100 languages are spoken in China, two Muslim provinces are in China, many regimes want China to fail, and you think the government should not be strong and powerful?
