Joe Biden has finally agreed to quit his re-election pursuit. I, for one, am not celebrating. Biden could have become a great American president, but instead he chose a foreign policy trajectory that effectively made him the most inept American president in modern history.

By November 2020, Donald Trump had proved himself largely to be a charlatan especially in the way he handled the COVID19 pandemic and the way he had initiated and conducted the trade war with China. Naturally, Biden looked better and went on to win the election.

Trump’s repeated attempts to manipulate some key states’ election results and the January 6 US Capital Attack made him a laughingstock both in and outside America.

With the seemingly warm friendship both Xi and Biden had struck when they were both vice presidents of their respective countries, China was hoping that Biden would unwind the damage that Trump had caused to the relationship. Alas, the first act of Biden proved to the harbinger of what would follow.

Antony Blinken and Jake Sullivan met China’s Yang Jiechi and Wang Yi in Anchorage, Alaska in March, two months after Biden’s inauguration. Blinken’s message was delivered in the most condescending way, which prompted Yang to sternly rebut him with “We Chinese do not eat the kind of stuff you are offering”. The sentiments and tones paved the way of China-US relationship under the Biden administration.

Besides Blinken and Sullivan, Biden unleased several other attack dogs: Secretary of Treasury Janet Yellen, Defense Secretary Llyod Austin, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, Trade Representative Katherine Tai and US Ambassador to Beijing Nicholas Burns. They attacked China relentlessly on all fronts. And any undertaking made by Biden after he had spoken with Xi will be blatantly disregarded the next day.

Instead of improving the livelihood of its people and coopting China to rebuild its country’s aging infrastructure and advance science and technology, Biden was totally consumed in creating an unholy alliance to retard China. And they have a convenient and willing stooge: the DPP of Taiwan.

Over the past four years, Biden and his attack dogs have proved themselves to be no better than a bunch of nincompoops in world politics. Saudi Arabia, hitherto the anchor of US Dollar’s supremacy, even saw fit to rebuff Biden. So are many other parts of the Global South, despite America’s attempt to equate China’s helping hand as debt traps. Two straws broke the camel’s back for good: (a) the Ukraine war, and (b) Israel’s out-of-proportion punishment of the Palestinians in Gaza. The facts are open for all to see; only shallower scholars will argue that the former was all Putin’s doing, and the latter, Netanyahu should be allowed to wipe out Hamas – two causes which the Americans were generally led to advocate.

All the writing was already on the wall that Biden would lose the November re-election. Notwithstanding, his hoodlums would continue to have the world believe that things would remain as usual. Until his June 27 debate with Trump in Atlanta. All hell broke loose after that. (Biden was obviously debating without his usual dose of neurological Viagra. His true form was revealed for all to see – a pathetic old man struggling to speak coherently. Trump was not that great, but an outright winner, nonetheless.)

Just days after the debate – in early July – Biden was made to host the NATO Summit in Washington. His hoodlums were still in a state of denial, threatening Russia and China with all sorts of military hard talks. You can understand the stances of NATO’s European members. They needed to suck up to Biden as long as he was still the President. But you cannot understand the silliness of Japan’s Kishida and South Korea’s Yoon, who still clung on to Biden’s tights as if he was their only saviour. And Ukraine’s entertainer extraordinaire Zelensky was still asking for Biden for permission to hit Russian bases during the summit. Wasn’t it obvious that Biden’s puppet troupe was already crumbling?

The puppeteers behind him were also working overtime to exhibit him on stage. They had to stall Trump, lest they will soon be out of job.

For months, Biden’s condition was there for all to see. But somehow people were also conditioned to believe that he could run. I put the blame squarely on the press corps covering the White House. They were helping to cover up as much as they could!

We all know that Kamala Harris is his anointed replacement in the November election. Harris says she is going to expose Trump – something that she knows best since she has been a public prosecutor before. But let’s be real. Trump triumphs even though his body is full of dirt; will any extra ounce make any difference?

Many are aghast with the decision. Biden had to drop out because he was considered by the backers to be no longer winnable. Logically, they needed to bring out someone who hopefully could turn the tide. But Harris’s record is so dismally poor. How can she help the Democrats in November?

This is the tyranny of status quo in American politics.

One needs to have a lot of money if you want to go big in politics in America. You must have backers who have deep pockets. (There are exceptions, of course, Barack Obama is a case in point.) There were in fact many good candidates, but they had no choice but to settle for Harris, lest the war chest would go missing.

Pseudo intellectuals in CNN, New York Times and Washing Post knew that too, so they must give everyone the impression that the race is a tight one and Harris does stand a chance. It was all self-deceiving and ostrich-like.

I don’t like Trump, for we all know he was all fake. But in America, it is “monkeys see and monkeys do”. When some of his brainless supporters saw he was wearing an ear bandage after the shooting incident, they also put on one to show empathy with him! Nuts really!
But Harris is so colourless. She had been Biden’s vice president, but nobody really knows what she has been doing. If she gets elected, Harris is likely to continue what Biden has been doing for the three years. The Deep State will be very happy!

But she is for certain not going to be elected. Trump will triumph in November.

And this has finally awakened the world.

Everyone is now asking: What should I do?

Zelensky knows Trump is not going to give him even a dime. Without money, he knows his forces will collapse overnight. NATO knows Trump does not care two hoots about them. Pay if you want us to protect you. Kishida and Yoon are totally clueless now, so is Marcos Jr. You can safely bet that the US is not going to give any help to the Filipinos if they do anything silly against China in the South China Sea. And Yoon can scream until he breaks his vocal cord. Trump admires Kim Jong Un, but it is a one-way love affair. Kim says he will give Trump his middle finger. What can Trump do?

Ditto on Taiwan, Trump does not care a damn about William Lai and DPP. If a war were to break out, so be it. It is China and Taiwan’s problem!

What next?

NATO will struggle to remain relevant, let alone its ambition to “pivot” to Asia to contain China. Jens Stoltenberg, its secretary-general, is outright delusional. Besides Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand, who in Pacific Asia is going to allow that? (Exception being the Philippines, maybe.)

France’s Macron and Germany’s Scholz keep insisting on shooting their own feet when it comes to trade and tariff issues with China. So is the EU’s Ursula von der Leyen whom Trump would certainly not hug when he assumes office.

Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni is cleverer. She read the writing on the wall early. And I believe UK’s prime minister is also smarter. Even Canada’s juvenile prime minister Trudeau has dispatched his foreign minister to see Wang Yi.

Zelensky had also sent his foreign minister to see Wang Yi. I suppose he wants President Xi to whisper into Putin’s ear to go easy on him. And remember, just a couple of months ago, he was still barking at Beijing for refusing to attend his Peace Summit and accusing China of enabling Russia economically and maybe also militarily to fight him.

And Blinken is now seeing Wang Yi in Vientiane. (ASEAN countries are meeting there.) He doesn’t want to end up as another Mike Pompeo. Spare me from your sanctions list after January next year, please. I need a job! He is going to quietly ask Wang Yi for a favour.

The Arabs are a very enlightened lot now. After the Iran-Saudi Arabia thaw, all the Palestinians factions have suddenly appeared in Beijing to make amends and moving forward together. Remember Saudia Arabia and Iran also went to Beijing to shake hands? (For centuries, the Shias and Sunnis have been sworn enemies. Who else could pull such a feat? Yet, the western world is accusing China of genocide against Muslims in China! The West only loves Chinese Muslims, not other Muslims, I suppose.)

The scholars and thinkers in Taiwan are lamenting this phenomenon: China has done Chinese all over the world proud of the good work it has done to the world – in so many parts of Africa, Latin and South America, South and Southeast Asia, Pacific islands, etc, yet you have a DPP in Taiwan that is so hostile to China even though they are ethnically Chinese!

The Chinese economy will suffer under Trump’s heavy hands, but their 吃苦chīkǔ (literally “eat bitter” – preparedness to endure extreme hardships or sufferings) spirit will propel them ahead. As for the Americans, they will have to live with these facts of life: emptier supermarket shelves and heavier cost of living.)

The world is changing fast!

I wrote some time ago about a book written by someone who studied the lifespans of empires. The average is said to be 250 years. The US is 248 years old now. It is about time for it to self-implode!

Thanks to Biden.
