Had Donald Trump been the U.S. president hosting this week’s APEC meetings, I have no doubt that the headline from the event would have been unchanged. It would have been: “He’s a dictator.”

The only difference is it would be Xi Jinping who was saying it to describe Trump.

Other than that, though, a Trump-hosted APEC meeting would likely have been unrecognizably different from the successful and productive forum hosted by President Joe Biden.

    He was elected in free and fair elections and had opposition each time. Unfortunately people remembered the Republicans from the decade prior that allowed the economy to be fleeced and caused tremendous hardship on everyone, so they had no chance. Then a war happened.

    I guess you were determined to be a troll at birth. Too bad you won’t use that energy to do some good for someone besides yourself.
