Friendly reminder: while conservative leaders around the world (including George H. W. Bush, Margaret Thatcher, and Brian Mulroney) were condemning the Chinese government for the Tiananmen Square massacre, Donald Trump was quoted in an interview with Playboy magazine

"When the students poured into Tiananmen Square, the Chinese government almost blew it. Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength," Trump replied. "That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak...as being spit on by the rest of the world."
