Biden gives green light to US-China thaw — M. K. Bhadrakumar

Let's hope. 

Hopefully, the neocons and liberal interventionists are out of favor, and the US is recognizing limitations in dealing with the combined power of China and Russia that US policy has created unnecessarily and against the warnings of foreign policy realists. 

Seasoned diplomat M. K. Bhadrakumar sees signs of hope anyway.

Hope is for those who lack power or courage.

From Martyanov's blog:
The United States has just elected and sworn to the highest office the guy who barely remembers his name and who has to be pumped with a cocktail of drugs to keep him focused for a few minutes. What do you expect from all that?

Hope.

“ The United States has just elected”

Nobody believes that…

As crazy as Matt sounds sometimes (that is when he's not talking econmics/finance), he's what you'd classify as in the lower end of the MAGA spectrum (you knoww, like the "autism spectrum").

Thinking of China... you know, the Sacklers would have been executed in China. Instead in America they got to keep their billions, stay out of prison, and avoid any future civil litigation. Now thinking how great America is... for the rich and powerful.

Expanded excerpt from Martyanov's blog:
But then again, what "democracy"? Who buys this shit anymore? The United States has just elected and sworn to the highest office the guy who barely remembers his name and who has to be pumped with a cocktail of drugs to keep him focused for a few minutes. What do you expect from all that?
