Beijing’s Global Times mouthpiece quoted an anonymous American voter saying, “There must be something wrong with the system,” and another claiming that the U.S. democracy was failing.

So the Global Times does a better job of reporting the state of mind of the American voter than the NYT.

They have tried to plant the idea among their own people and their sympathizers in the West and developing nations that the United States is not a democracy at all but a dysfunctional oligarchy in terminal decline.

So if Trump wins, will they accuse anyone saying he’s destroying democracy and turning America into a fascist oligarchy of being a Putin stooge?

What matters is to demonstrate that the American elections in November will be a farce, in which voters are being duped into choosing between two equally unpalatable options.

So reflecting reality, got it.
