    He bought a suit strictly because it looked like Chairman Mao’s and sweeps for him regularly.

    Okay. Let me pretend that’s the reason… Who actually gives a shit?

        I’m sorry but the type of suit he’s wearing doesn’t make him anti-American. China has made a lot of advancements in the last 100 years. There’s nothing wrong with respecting that.

        They have plenty of issues with totalitarianism the same way America does that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate aspects of America’s history and vice versa for China.

        Fdr put Japanese people in concentration camps, but if somebody wore a suit that was styled after a suit that FDR wore and talked about all of the amazing things FDR did. I wouldn’t say they’re anti-American.

        This isn’t the goal post moving. This is people thinking that bringing up the type of suit the guy wears is stupid.

          You seem to forget that I said he also sweeps for Mao, but I get that reading is really hard.
