I see what you mean, I agree to regular observers it seems like the democrats bent the knee, but six months ago it was the republicans who bent the knee in a similar fashion.

I still don't like your analogy though, China did bent the knee imo during Pelosi trip, but China and American politicians aren't secretly allied together, unlike democrats and republicans.

An extreme example but it was the only thing that I could think of at the moment that might get my point across. Republicans did bend the knee 6 months ago but they also secured compromises from the Democrats to remove provisions in the funding bill. The Democrats didn’t get anything.

The republicans had control of the house at that time though. It's only natural they were able to secure compromises. The Democrats aren't in control of anything, they are in a much weaker negotiation position.

Baltic chihuahuas love to talk big.
Their foreign policy actually make sense for them. The Baltics are very small countries that need the Americans to balance both the Brussels and Russia. Western European politicians are unforgivable for letting them hijack the European diplomacy though. It happened because West Euro politicians cannot say no to the atlanticists.
