DonOld in China

Robert Pape, professor at the University of Chicago: Xi Jinping is humiliating Trump, and trying to pretend otherwise will only make things worse.- First, Iranian negotiators refused to meet with Trump's envoys.- Then, Friedrich Merz, the German Chancellor, publicly stated that Trump was being humiliated.- After that, Saudi Arabia began to distance itself from Trump.- Trump is now facing a major crisis similar to Lyndon Johnson's crisis (the US president in the 1960s who faced domestic and foreign political pressures, especially the Vietnam War).
