Nobody really repairs anything anymore.

It’s all about diagnosing and changing parts.

Lots of things can be repaired, if you do it yourself.

It doesn’t pay for a pro to resolder a connection or clean a throttle body and stuff. It takes longer and pros make money on the parts they change.

It’s a throwaway world.

How old are you? Your acne will go away, soon. Try pro-active or a Sulphur mask.

Xi traditionally meets at the great hall. He didnt meet Obama coming off of AF1. There was no red carpet.

Obama departed from the back of the plane
Xi never greets at AF1. Second in Command greeted Trump...

Details on Obama's 2014 China Visit (the main relevant trip):Obama arrived in Beijing on November 10, 2014, for the APEC summit. Air Force One landed at Beijing Capital International Airport.

gettyimages.com

There are photos and reports of Obama stepping off the plane, but no record of Xi Jinping greeting him there (or any high-level Chinese leader meeting him directly at the aircraft). Standard protocol for such visits often involves lower-level officials or diplomats at the airport, with formal leader-to-leader greetings later.

nytimes.com

The main official welcome and bilateral meetings with Xi took place at the Great Hall of the People (a formal state arrival ceremony with troops, etc., on November 12). Xi hosted Obama there, and they held talks, a joint press conference, and other events.

obamawhitehouse.archives.gov

A separate 2016 incident in Hangzhou (G20 summit, not Beijing) involved a reported protocol snub where Obama had to exit Air Force One from a non-standard door due to missing stairs/red carpet, but Xi was not involved in greeting him at the plane.

theguardian.com

This aligns with typical diplomatic practices: heads of state rarely meet visiting leaders directly at the plane unless it's a highly choreographed state visit with special arrangements. Xi and Obama met multiple times overall (including in the US), but not at AF1 in China.

He should have brought the Chinese Trump impersonator to act as his translator. He could say everything in Chinese, but using Trumps affect.

If ANY president would ever decide to have a reciprocal peace and mutually beneficial relationship with Russia and China, every major conflict in the world would end at the behest of the three.

Most likely true, but Trump and his minions do not believe in mutual benefits.

In their antagonistic world, there are only winners and losers.

The President has the power to end the wars in Iran, Israel/Gaza, & Ukraine/Russia in short order. A minute part of me thinks/hopes that he will…a man can wish. A true minion should want this also.
