Endless jokes to show how stupid and unserious he is. He's too dumb to get them, but 1.4 Billion people were laughing their asses off at his expense all week. They did everything but make him wear a dunce hat and clown makeup all week. Everyone from the US delegation had to be cringing and then biting their lips when he asked them for feedback.

China made sure to highlight how confused, stupid and, infirm Trump is. It was a giant mockery of him.

And Xi was in contrast strong, capable, and in control. Everything about the visit was set up to show the world who is in charge now and who can be relied on. It was very clearly the passing of the torch from the US to China as being the most consequential country on earth from this point forward. Sad.
