Anyway, let's go through the Wall Street Journal's report and what the editorial board had to say about the stakes of this summit, what's actually at stake.
So the United States wants stability, but Chinese communist leader has larger ambitions, says the Wall Street Journal.
Journal's editorial board.
President Trump visits Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing on Thursday, and the pre-meeting U.S.
spin is a search for stability, in quotes.
It's a nice idea, as long as Mr. Trump doesn't think personal rapport can overcome Mr. Xi Jinping's anti-American purposes, says the Wall Street Journal.
The agenda ranges from trade to technology to Iran.
On trade, the best outcome may be ratifying the status quo, a truce on tariffs with a promise from Beijing not to hold the world's rare earth supply hostage again.
The markets, business leaders, no one wants chaos.
Everyone can sort of work around a tariff plan if it's going to stay in use for a long time.
Didn't he famously call himself a stable genius?
Stability has been part of his brand for a long time, at least the one that he projects.
Mr. Xi Jinping, on the other hand, China's weak economy is an incentive for him to cooperate, and he'll hope to placate Mr. Trump with promises of buying more farm goods,
we talked about this previously, more aircraft and other things.
So that's maybe why Boeing is there, although there is not, it doesn't look like there's representation from an agricultural leader, though I can't name one off the top of my head, but maybe they should be in, maybe they should be represented.
But Mr. Xi Jinping has made that promise before, and US farmers have never regained their lost market share in China.
The rare earths ransom offer may be more US advanced chip exports to China.
Xi Jinping views artificial intelligence as a decisive theater in Beijing's competition with the United States, and he is trailing, though not by much, maybe six months by most people's estimates,
The administration wants to talk with Beijing about AI guardrails and by all means, keep the phone lines open.
But don't expect much from AI arms control.
