Did you hear about the scene in China today? Now picture it with Trump instead of Obama.

1. his security people would have punched someone

if it was trump.
It kind of sounds like there were a couple people on the Chinese group who have anger issues. Would not want to be them after that mess.

2. Trump has said the press is scum, low life, etc

3. NoDrama Obama was fine a few hours later when addressing the G20 at 3:30 am my time....

I got hooked on the Downton Abbey marathon on PBS that started at 9pm Friday night and will run all weekend (or as the Dowager Duchess would say: "What is a Week End?&quot . I only wanted to see the first few episodes, which I missed when it was all new. So that's how I ended up staying awake until 4am. Pledge breaks eat up a lot of time.

So I turned on CNN for just a moment and there was President Obama live addressing the G20 on climate change and talking about how co-operative the Chinese are. No mention that some of their officials are fucking paranoid control freaks -- the man never breaks a sweat.

I am going to miss that man so much.

4. I'll miss him too, Hekate.

5. Literally, the very last sentence of the report was this:

Despite the turbulence, Obama and his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, managed to announce that both nations will formally commit to the declarations of last year's Paris climate agreement to reduce greenhouse gases.

God damn our media sucks.

And, are you listening, China? Don't fuck with Obama.
