Much much too early in the rumor cycle to know if this story has any legs

I don’t repost EVERY internet rumor I encounter.
but since Newsweek et al are reporting how widespread the rumors are,
I felt it would be okay.

Pursuing zero covid while their real estate bubble is popping, they(CCP) are in a world of hurt, doubt they can coup their way out of it.

The Chinese leadership was pretty serious that a leader for life, in the model Mao, was bad for country and party. Xi thinks he is emperor of China for life, and has been implementing making himself just that. There are elements in the party who are not happy with a return to a ruler for life model.

Would be hilarious if China finally spilled the Beans on Hunter son.

China coup, Vlad the inbred Slav is losing Generals and friends, there’s turmoil in Iran.
Could get interesting.
Wouldn’t hold my breath. Kim Jung Un goes MIA for a few days every now and then, rumors start flying, and then he shows up fine and dandy. Probably the same thing here.

No legs. Someone smoking too much herb. The media took a vacation from facts, again.

Don’t look for fair and balanced reporting. Russia and china are doing just fine.

Hunter and daddy could be blackmailed
The Times no longer “fair and balanced”?

I’m not sure I hope it’s true.
Xi Is outright moderate compared to some of the folks in China that might take over after such a coup.

I didn’t realize how old the opening post was. I’ve not been keeping up with much of the news lately. So I missed everything about rumors of a China coup, Which now have apparently been quite debunked.
