Taking to Twitter, Hu Xijin shared a video made by 'Chinese netizens' where they have 'lip-synced' Trump and Pompeo to a Chinese patriotic song "I Love You, China".

The Global Times Editor had earlier taken a dig at Donald Trump after the Republican National Convention formally re-nominated him as the party's presidential candidate for the November 3 election. China's state-owned media stooge said that the US democracy is going "awry" as it is letting "two old men" compete for the most important position in the US.
'US democracy is going awry'
The stooge said that the average age of Trump (74) and Biden (78) is 76 and four years later, their average age will be 80 which will be higher than average life expectancy in the US, which is 78.6. In July, he had said that these two "old men" cannot be the best candidate for the US Presidency, but the US system cannot select the "most suitable people."

The China issue has become a leading election year topic as Trump and Biden each attempt to paint the other as weak in the face of aggressive moves from Beijing. Meanwhile, several netizens slammed the Chinese stooge for resorting to "cheap and unethical" means to show his frustration.

The secret internet police will hunt them down, torturing them big time, and throwning them into jail!
So editor and chief of global times has resorted to making and publishing crummy videos of presidents singing Chinese songs. Wow.

If these same Chinese joked about Mao or Xi they will be tortured in detention and will remain in prison for a long time. Chinese American comedians in the US are scared to make any comedy Chinese leaders but they ridicule the US president regularly.

Poor Chinese media. Your opinion do not make any difference on the strength of US or world. No one bother on your false propaganda.
