It's more funny and sad than it is interesting. Bessent's got some twisted rapist logic in him. "This woman cannot dictate to us whom we have sexual intercourse with!" Sounds reasonable until you find out he and his gang are dead set on intercourse with her.
Seems Bessent can't handle Li Chenggang. They say he appeared uninvited to an economic negotiation with the US where he has a major role representing China? Do they think they can pick our vice commerce minister? LOL Where's Ron Vara? Didn't they send him to Japan for the Plaza Accords and the Japanese had to take it when he threw paper planes at them to mock their helplessness? Now they talk about disrespect?
I truly wonder if Bessent is stupid enough to believe the things he says or if he knows what he's saying is retarded but he's gotta say something and that's just the best he can come up with in light of the irony of America being proven a trade war glass cannon.Bessent is not a good liar. He is not a politician.
Seems like they are reeling, as they got nothing to come back with.
All this song and dance, only Kabuki Theater, but it is awful!
Trump was in show business. Get Trump handle the production!

That is incorrect. The name Han was from 天汉, the Mikey Way Galaxy.no, Khan is the title of ruler in Mongolic and Turkic languages which are not related to Mandarian language (a branch of Sino-Tibetan).
Han is a name of river in Southwest China. It is a tributary water of Yantze River in Southern China. The founder of Han dynasty Liu Bang received his fiefdom in the Han river vally in Southwest China (today's Sichuan province). After he defeated everyone he named his dynasty Han, a tradition of naming by ariscratical title. The population would not be named Han as there is no reason to call your own name. People would self introduce as Zhongyuan Ren (people from central plain), or Lingnan Ren (people from morden day Guangdong) and so on. Only in Yuan dynasty, the mongol emperor need a catagorization for official assignment based on the time of joining Chengis Khan's struggle, they made four catagories under their rule, and Han was used officially for the first time to refer to a population.
In short, Han is name of a river to name of a dynasty to name of people.
Interestingly in most European languages, the word like Chin, Sinea, China, Kina are the name of first dynasy before Han. But inside China the dynasty lasted for very short time, so the name did not stick around as Han would.
Once the rare earth control card was played, it became clear there was no turning back. Trust between the two sides had vanished. China knew the US would inevitably do whatever it took to break the rare earth blockade. The temporary truce was merely the US seeking the opportunity for its next attack.
Bessent prefers boys actually, he’s homosexual as are a lot of the Anglo elite who dabble in pederasty.Ashley Tellis, huh? OK and here I was wondering what the lady who sold secrets to China looks like. I Googled. I am dissappointed. Everyone be warned, if you are in DC and someone tells you Ashley and Ladybugs Lindsay are joining you for dinner, you are NOT in for a treat. I would sit it out.

That name sounds so familiar to me. Anyone read "My Senior Brother is too steady"? The hero is a mastermind and works as an advisor and agent to the emperor and has that name there.Seems America can't handle Li Chenggang.
Agree on most points-and respect to all of you guys who debate on both sides , who know alot more then I about Sun Yat sen's life/work.Respected and revered by both ML /TW ,the father of modern China could not even DREAM about the military power,the prosperous global economic engine,the high status on the global high table (P5UN)as a true superpower that China is now.The China he inherited was a broken,impoverished /dying Qing empire/state being carved up by the west and an ever increasingly hostile Japan with even the Chinese not agreeing what to do/how to implement his Three principles of the People.Any form of respect and cooperation was greeted by hostility,derision and crude racism by the west/japan and I believe ANY constructive reforms would have been sabotaged by them as a way to snuff out even the tiniest embers of national revival using any means(any of you think Nie Er "accidentally" drowned in Japan-I don't).This was the reality since 1841 Opium Wars1899 Boxer Rebellion etc,etc.The fact of JJS/CKS being a graduate of the Tokyo Military Academy also gives me pause as he was product of elite capture perhaps to a degree by Tokyo and therefore hesitant to fight his old alma mater?Throughout China hopelessness,brutal mind-boggling poverty,medieval traditions ,opium,foreign hate/hostility,national schisms etc all shackled China/Chinese.Even the CPC was mere salon-type political movement that needed the LongMarch to forge,purify and harden the mettle of its member imbueing it with strength /will to create men/women that basically wasn't afraid of ANYTHING and could lead China through its most difficult years from WW2,Civil war to Korea to the reforms after GCR etc.Perhaps China could be as strong if Sun Yat Sen had lived 10 years longer but I don't believe so-There had to be a Crucible.Easy to be Chinese now,then not at all.Prosperity and strength,to China/Chinese.Sun Yat sen's legacy was hotly debated by the KMT throughout the period after his death. The entire left wing of the KMT including his wife Song Qingling and Wang Jingwei (before losing hope in an independent China) argued his political work was principally influenced by progressivism and socialism, and the interpretation of his political work as Confucian values was primarily advanced by the right wing of the KMT like Dai Jitao backed by people like Chiang Kai Shek and Hu Hanmin. Whatever his great-grandson who never knew him says can be taken with a huge grain of salt, especially because nobody advanced this Christian interpretation during his time. In fact throughout the 1920s, KMT leaders including the Christian members advanced anti-Christian rhetoric of missionaries as imperialists, which indirectly encouraged protests and riots to loot and burn many Christian missions. The party also banned foreign missionaries from manging schools etc. Michael G. Murdock (2010). Disarming the Allies of Imperialism: The State, Agitation, and Manipulation during China's Nationalist Revolution, 1922–1929. Cornell University Press. pp. 11–12; Martin Wilbur (1984). The Nationalist Revolution in China, 1923-1928. Cambridge University Press. pp. 70–72; Kaiyi Li (2021). Transnational Education between The League of Nations and China: The Interwar Period. Springer Nature. pp. 17–18
As for Chiang himself, his personal diaries described his understanding of Christianity as simply being a reinforcement of Confucianism, which is why he was able to convert so easily just to marry Song Meiling Taylor, Jay (2009). The Generalissimo: Chiang Kai-shek and the struggle for modern China. Harvard University Press. p. 91. If he had believed the Atlanticist propaganda about Confucianism being an archaic ideology that is inferior to Western culture, he would not be Christian in the first place.
Also the CPC doesn't agree with your assessment of Sun Yat sen:

This guy talked tough when he was at his post in China. Now that he's stepped down, he really loosened the belt on his inner thoughts, and showed us he's quite sensible and not just some idiot Captain America type. I wonder what Bessent will say when he's done. Reveals that these Americans will absolutely do a job on an empty shell mindset with as much belief and conviction as a man told he's supposed chop down a tree by staring at it really hard.Bessent prefers boys actually, he’s homosexual as are a lot of the Anglo elite who dabble in pederasty.
