The beans and Boeing summit that changed nothing

The Trump-Xi Beijing summit produced a 200-jet deal and soybean pledges. But the trade war's root cause is an accounting problem nobody at the table wants to fix.

The summit that couldn't fix an accounting problem pretending to be a trade war

The Trump-Xi Beijing summit produced soybeans, Boeing jets, and a new committee. None of it will fix the imbalance that made the summit necessary.

The Dragon, the Eagle, and the Burning Crescent: Trump’s visit to China in an Age of Fragmentation and Geoeconomic Disorder - World Geostrategic Insights

By Mirza Abdul Aleem Baig The visit of President Donald Trump to China from May 13 to 15, 2026, is not merely another diplomatic engagement between Washington and Beijing. It is a strategic encounter taking place at a historical inflection point where the global order itself is under reconstruction. Beneath the ceremonial handshakes, red carpets,

In 2017, Trump visited Beijing and China bought 300 Boeing jets. This time: 200 jets, a tacit deal on Iranian oil, and a phrase about "strategic stability." The Global South, still rationing fuel, was not consulted.

The G2 Settlement: Trump, Xi and the War Nobody Else Got to Vote

Trump flew to Beijing and left weighing whether to lift sanctions on Chinese companies buying Iranian oil. The country being bombed will fund the relationship being repaired. The Global South paid the price of the war. It will pay the price of the peace.

...Or that #DementiaDon is way too young in that AI image and walking like a healthy adult, instead of shambling and tottering, as he actually does?

With his advanced Dementia, Donald walks slowly and unsteadily, with his legs further apart, and one leg often circles a bit (which is a very unique symptom of Frontaltemporal Dementia).

The Beijing summit was not a diplomatic event. It was a property settlement. Two powers agreed to manage their rivalry. Everyone else got the energy bill.

Trump bombed Iran. Then flew to Beijing and offered China a pass to keep buying Iranian oil. Bangladesh ran dry. Sri Lanka rationed fuel. The Global South was not collateral damage in this war. It was the currency.
