Chief Executives to Accompany Trump to China
The delegation includes business leaders across a wide range of industries, including Tim Cook of Apple and Elon Musk of Tesla.
The White House distributed a list on Monday of business leaders who are scheduled to be in Beijing with the president. Mr. Trump is slated to depart Washington on Tuesday and hold meetings with Xi Jinping, China’s leader, later in the week.
After the White House sent out its list, Cisco said its chief executive, Chuck Robbins, was unable to attend.
U.S. officials have said Mr. Trump wants to discuss the creation of a board of investment and a board of trade with China, and the delegation includes business leaders across a wide range of industries.

Why fool around with political office holders, when the real leadership of the United States of America comes from our billionaires? Why even call America a "nation"? We are a mass of consumers.
I object. Helpless and hapless before the unequaled power of billionaires, I nevertheless object.
Anybody in America feel discomfort at having Musk represent you in global affairs?

Isn't this an obvious
admission that we are a fascist country?
"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." ---- William Casey, CIA Director, 1981
Not an admission but a boast
from the King of Brags. From Trump and his cabinet on down to the Online Empire of Wingnuttery, they do not bother to hide from their fetishization of their own power. Hegeth shouting down members of Congress for their disrespectful questions; the balls out sophistry from GOP State Supreme Courts; virtually every word that comes out of Blowhard's mouth. The will that aims to be triumphant.
The F word can come out of the closet. I don't care to go there at this moment, but I never thought it could get as bad as it is already. Trend line down.
I cried when I wrote this song. Sue me if I play too long.
Negotiations involving business titans
.
does not rhyme with political agreements unless you
consider there is no political force in the US worthy of
discussion. Another insult to the opposing party. This
is the present state of diplomacy in the US. A joke.

This article seems (to me) to say the U.S. may be losing the military war but winning the economic war, implementing planning since the Cheney/Bush era to control the world’s energy supply. Using our Navy pirates to divert oil routes to the Western Hemisphere. Seems like Chevron should be on the list going to China.

Musk? Not particularly
Fink, Boeing, and Goldman-Sachs, OTOH, make me livid.
Watch the fuck out, China.
