webfact Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Trump tweets are 'messages from some alternative universe' - China Daily FILE PHOTO: Visitors looks at tweets at The Donald J. Trump Presidential Twitter Library presented by The Daily Show in West Hollywood, California, U.S., June 8, 2018. REUTERS/Mario Anzuoni SHANGHAI (Reuters) - Twitter comments by U.S. President Donald Trump accusing China of hacking former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's email server are an attempt to cast China as a "scapegoat", the official China Daily said in an editorial Friday. The strongly worded editorial also took aim at Trump directly, commenting: "To the thinking person, there are few things more disconcerting than a tweet by the U.S. president as they initially seem to accord to reality but then quickly turn into messages from some alternative universe." Trump said on Twitter on Wednesday that China hacked the emails of 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton but did not offer any evidence or further information. China's foreign ministry has denied Trump's allegation and the editorial accused him of "smearing China's image as he desperately needs a scapegoat in the run-up to the midterm elections, so he can divert public attention from the troubles the White House has become mired in". Trump faces potentially difficult mid-term elections in November as his Republican party fights to retain control of both houses of Congress. State media in China have in recent weeks adopted an increasingly aggressive stance against Trump as the world's two biggest economies have become engaged in an increasingly bitter trade war. That marks a shift from their previous approach of tempering any direct criticism against the U.S. president.

My Thai Life Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Neutral? I don't get it, probably your autospellchecker playing up. Your point about ladyboys is connected to Trump? Really? Of course not, it's connected to your attitudes. Your nutty comment about ladyboys puts you smack dab in the centre of Trumptown. Enjoy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliantly written paragraph. I’m no fan of the Chinese government or it’s mouthpieces like the China daily, but damn...that is a spot on assessment of trump. 12 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neeray Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 We all know g d well who did the hacking. And we all know g d well that tRump has to blame some country other than Russia. It was probably Vlad who ordered him to crap on China. What was it tRump said a few months ago about Predsident Xi Jinping? Oh yes, "Xi is a good friend of mine, we have a great relationship" (not verbatim). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize that they have used tRUmp's own tweets, in essence, his own words - and he tells us he knows "the best words. So you're saying tRUmp is anti-American? That seems a bit over the top? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Criticising Trump by calling him a ladyboy seems to indicate that in the poster's mind ladyboys are somehow undesirable or to be criticised. I'm sure that's a sentiment that the vast majority of the Trump base would agree with. After all, they're not known as supporters of gender rights are they? Let me now if you're still having difficulty and I'll try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the Russian government makes comments supportive of Trump and gets criticized for it, his supporters accuse Russian critics of playing the outdated communism card. But when China goes after Trump, it's all about communism. Edited August 31, 2018 by bristolboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
