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.

    I never said Trump was working for Putin. You’re putting words in my mouth again. Why can’t you have an honest discussion?

      That’s what the first impeachment was about, working with Putin to influence the election.
