This week, the U.S. added to the list of reasons why foreign leaders laugh at the leadership our nation faces under Democratic rule.
China's propaganda-fueled newspaper, the Global Times, mocked San Francisco's "miraculous" cleanup of the city's ongoing homeless problem ahead of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit.
Before Chinese dictator Xi Jinping's arrival in the Democrat-run city, San Francisco sidewalks were plagued with homeless encampments, human feces, and needles— making it one of the most dangerous places to visit in California.
More from the Global Times:
The so-called San Francisco's "problem of the century" of the homeless miraculously disappeared overnight as the city prepares for the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. Chinese netizens joked online that the "about-face change" of San Francisco's clean street and the disappearance of homeless people demonstrate the city has the ability to address the malaise but only seems willing to do so when an international summit is approaching rather than for the sake of its own people. Drug addicts, dealers, and the homeless who have plagued San Francisco's downtown have miraculously disappeared. When San Francisco finally had rare fresh air, people began to question why the city's cleanliness and renewal had to wait until a summit. According to media reports, the real concern for San Francisco residents is why the government can solve century-old problems that have plagued the city for the president but cannot solve these problems for ordinary people. Some Chinese netizens also joked that the U.S. media tend to hype China's efforts to improve a city's environment before a big event. "In China, we already have clean and safe cities. So what we do is a little bit of cleanup. But the U.S. has pulled out all of its strength; not only did it remove the homeless, but it also covered graffiti and cleaned the rubbish-covered road. I thought they did not care," said a Sina Weibo netizen.
The Chinese publication pointed out many people find it "scary to know the government has the capability to clean up crime and drugs in 24 hours." However, it chooses not to.
Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA.) admitted that Jinping's visit was the only reason the city saw a massive cleanup of homeless.
After San Francisco was magically cleaned up ahead of Xi Jinping's visit, Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom says:

We stole a page from their playbook (remember the Olympics clean-up?) and their mocking stole a page from ours.
“I know folks say, ‘Oh, they’re just cleaning up this place because all these fancy leaders are coming into town.’ That’s true because it’s true.”-Gavin Newsome
You know what’s funny? The stupid San Francisco residents complaining will still vote for that dumb ass.
They made their bed 🛏, now they have to sleep 💤 in it.
"I know folks say, 'Oh, they're just cleaning up this place because all these fancy leaders are coming into town.'.... That's true because it's true."...........("And I want to be the next President of the Free World!")
I guess if one wanted to visit SF, this was the week to do so. It will soon return to its normal crappy condition.

And if he gets to run for president because Biden is thrown out on his ear, they will vote for him to be the country’s president.
In China they never let you anywhere near any of the poverty.
Remember when a young lady tourist was murdered for kicks on the Embarcadero by an illegal alien using a stolen handgun, and San Fran prosecutors, judges, and citizens collectively went “the bad gun is to blame”, “nothing to see here” and “these things happen”? I was wondering, would they feel the same way if the unlucky visitor were Xi?
Clean streets for Xi, but not for thee
Newsom’s Marxist roots go clear back to Stalin’s Potemkin Villages built like false-front Hollywood sets to make visitors think the Communists were prospering. The more things change the more they stay the same.
True. They’ll be back to dropping deuces on the sidewalks in no time.
China has no room to talk. They paint their pigs black. They have fake cities.
?
I would have thought that Newsom would have been proud to show off the near total destruction of an American city. It certainly didn’t happen by accident.
When China does “a little bit of clean up” whole city blocks are taken down or large numbers of people are permanently “disappeared”.
RE: large numbers of people are permanently “disappeared”
I’m curious, where are these “disappeared” people relocated?
