Everyone gets mad at me for critiquing the leader that they like, but listen…I’m out here roasting everybody. Whether it’s Obama, Trump, Xi Jinping, or Grandma, nobody is safe. Okay fine, we’ll leave Gram Gram out of it for today.

Each of these three leaders has damaged long-term functionality of their respective governments. Obama was incredibly intelligent, but lacked the managerial skills to achieve bipartisan cooperation. Xi Jinping is paranoid and obsessed with preserving his power, which led him to purging the Chinese system and creating an overly centralized system that is disconnected from reality. Trump has adopted the worst qualities of both of these other leaders and brought them to his second term in office, results are obvious in daily news…

At least the US only has to deal with Trump for four years. The Chinese have no end in sight for their leadership crisis and are rapidly approaching demographic collapse. Hopefully the US can learn something from the chaos that will ensure in China, and avoid a similar fate.
