(131,190 posts)because "being out of central casting" implies the person embodies a certain stereotype - that Chinese people, according to Trump, are short. Therefore a tall Chinese man can't be out of central casting. What a diplomatic disaster he is, though; he might as well have walked up to Xi and said, "You sure are tall for a Chinese guy. And by the way, we spy on you all the time."

(26,551 posts)Trump fired all the cyber-security top experts in government, so the Chinese can take down the entire US infrastructure (less some hardened military stuff) any day of the week. They were inside U.S. Telco's for a year before anyone noticed.
Xi is a playing genius poker and Trump, well, he's the joker.
