For a meeting ostensibly about the Iran war, tariffs, security, etc, do you think its appropriate that Trump brought a host of CEOs with him to China? Do you think this makes it look more like a business-venture trip than a political one?

"Here are the executives Mr. Trump said are "journeying to the Great Country of China" with him.

Cristiano Amon, CEO of Qualcomm
Tim Cook, CEO of Apple
Lawrence Culp Jr., CEO of GE Aerospace
Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock
Jane Fraser, CEO of Citigroup
Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia
Ryan McInerney, CEO of Visa
Sanjay Mehrotra, CEO of Micron Technology
Michael Miebach, CEO of MasterCard
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX
Kelly Ortberg, CEO of Boeing
Stephen Schwarzman, CEO of Blackstone
Brian Sikes, CEO of Cargill
David Solomon, CEO of Goldman Sachs
Jacob Thaysen, CEO of Illumina

Mr. Trump said in the same post that he plans to ask Chinese President Xi Jinping "to 'open up' China so that these brilliant people can work their magic, and help bring the People's Republic to an even higher level!"

Edited, hopefully mods will allow now -

I'm curious about how long you stick it out for character development. I've seen *so* many posts here that either a) lambast an FMC for being a shit-heel early on with the potential for growth or b) bemoan the "too perfect" FMC who is either immediately too powerful or just oh so smol and humble and kind that they're insufferable.

I'm not one of those women who immediately cry "internalized misogyny" when female readers immediately disregard female characters that are in desperate need of growth, but sometimes I can't help but wonder if a lot of us have a knee-jerk reaction to shit-head FMCs who need to grow, but we don't let them because we don't have the patience and want our FMCs appealing from the first chapter. So I'm curious: how long do you stick out character growth? Are there certain traits/abilities/tropes you need to see to decide to stick it out? How do you balance character growth and inherent character "perfection"?

Oh, the ER told you to report her? Yet you talked about getting tested after that in multiple videos/posts? Girl, you can't lie when the internet is forever.

New Porgan grift just dropped: they're training Morgan for competitive couple play (deets in comments)

Do you think its appropriate that Trump brought a suite of our largest CEOs to China?

Morgan: posts with Paul in the evening to prove they're not living apart. Also Morgan: posts proving that she's living with her parents

How long do you give a book for main character growth?
