Former President Donald Trump said that the world has been laughing at the United States since President Joe Biden took office at Thursday night’s debate. Following the 90-minute showdown, Chinese commentators took to state and local media to mock the candidates.

News outlets were quick to point out the numerous falsehoods claimed by both Biden and Trump, but Biden’s gaffes had Democratic operatives concerned about his mental acuity and questioning whether he should be replaced on the 2024 ticket. This was ‘very entertaining’ for Chinese commentators.
