So basically what it says is Xi is a non-traditional leader who hands all the positions to his friends and would rather let the leadership grow old and senile than promote a competent person, because old friends are not a threat.
Sounds a tad familiar? The US just elected the oldest President ever, who has spent decades in government.
Honestly confused by Americans pretending they have anything that different to what the Chinese do. Bushes, Clintons, it's like you've all harked back to royal lines while pretending it's something else.
It's truly terrifying that democracies are electing older and older people across the board, they simply aren't capable of doing the job, everyone I know over 60 has highly diminished mental capacities and if not retired they should be relegated to menial tasks.
I know it's a harsh thing to say and I'm truly sorry to people of said demographic reading this stuff but it's a cold hard fact easily backed up by decades of science.
Elderly people are the most dangerous politicians on the planet.
And despite billing himself as the alternate to the dynastical system, Trump quickly used the presidency as a vehicle for advancing his family's careers. Biden did the exact same thing as vice president - you can tell me what Hunter Biden did was "legal" till the cows come home, he obviously profited immensely from foreign business opportunities that existed solely because his dad was VP.
It's a problem that so-called liberal people love claiming that a scandal has been "debunked" because it was, in fact, legal to engage in extreme corruption. Do we really accept that this system is legitimate, much less superior to those horrible Russians and Chinese? As if they don't call their corruption legal, too?

Search on DDG for other statements from Tony Bobulinksi. He was one of Hunter Biden's business partners, and a former Navy officer (unlike Hunter, he didn't get kicked out of the Navy for drug abuse). Bottom line: Hunter's income stems almost entirely from foreign powers buying access to his father. Most dangerously, the Chinese.

Where is this?
Strange that the Cathay Bank wire transfer document has the amount redacted, of all things.

Even if being, as the GP suggests, over 60 was "at their worst", we don't. Sure, Trump and Biden are unusually old for Presidents. The remainder of the most recent five elected Presidents, Clinton, Bush the Younger, and Obama, were all unusually young for Presidents -- Clinton (3rd youngest at inauguration) and Obama (5th youngest at inauguration) were both under 50 when they took office, W was under 55.
Why? Despite short-term trends mostly connected to the opioid crisis, over the long term people are living longer and being mentally and physically functional longer, especially at the high tail of the distribution (and when you are talking about elected leaders, its a small group, not the bulk of the population.)
> they simply aren't capable of doing the job, everyone I know over 60 has highly diminished mental capacities
There is a very slight on-average decline of executive function with age past, IIRC, the early 30s. Healthy 60 year olds don't have "highly diminished mental capacities" as a rule, so if everyone you know over that age does, that tells more about who you know than it does about over 60 year olds.
