President Xi Expected to Declare Himself President for Life
|It looks like President Xi is going to make it official and become the emperor for life he has always wanted:
Only two men in the Communist Party’s history have ever written a so-called historical resolution. China is waiting to see whether President Xi Jinping becomes the third.
The first official declaration on Chinese history in 40 years is set to top the agenda when the ruling party huddles this week in the last major meeting before a twice-a-decade congress next year, where Xi’s expected to break precedent and secure a third term to extend his indefinite rule.
Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping’s historical resolutions came at critical junctures in the nation’s trajectory and enabled their authors to dominate party politics until their dying breaths. Issuing his own magnum opus would not only put Xi on par with those party titans, but could signal big changes afoot in the world’s second-largest economy.
The meeting from Nov. 8-11, called the sixth plenum, kicks off the closest thing China has to a campaign season. Getting the party to back his take on China’s history — and its future — would be the biggest sign yet that Xi has the power base to potentially rule for life after almost a decade of purging enemies and pushing to foster national pride.

You can read more at the link, but that is the thing about purges, these authoritarians make so many enemies that it is dangerous for them to step down because they then risked being jailed or worse.
Til death does he part.
Winnie XI, the first Chinese dictator to have his own guy elected President of the United States.
BTW:
Meanwhile, in Florida, Drump is stewing and ranting, and telling Melania “I was so close!”
Ha! Trump burrowed really deep in their minds, didn’t he?
For the rest of their lives, they have to look at everything through the Lens of Trump… which is stronger than the Lens of Racism!
Old and Busted: “Xi is just doing this to fight the toxically masculine Christian conservative white patriarchy!”
New and Fresh: “But Trump!”
Every time they bring up Trump, I smile.
CH, they need to talk about Trump to avoid talking about Joey crapping himself multiple times and his loud, long, and nauseating flatulence in front of Prince Charles’ wife.
And the container ships stacking up in LA, the p3do trials all around the country, the missing Afghans and other criminal border-jumpers, unlikeable cackler Kamala, inflation, the plandemic, Virginia, Fauci’s ongoing lies, and so much more…
Still, I would have expected Paintchip to have brought up Kenosha, WI, where “White on White” violence (whether one supports Rittenhouse or those he shot) is said to be ready to trigger more “BLM” rioting. I would not have thought big city Blacks were that stupid or easily manipulated. Or is it just more soytifa nonsense?

“I would not have thought big city Blacks were that stupid or easily manipulated.”
Do you live in the US or are you an expat? Going by your comment, I’m thinking you’ve lived outside the country for at least 50 years.
Naw brah. Maybe the people of color in your neck of the woods are different; but they’re pretty intelligent in Texas.
