What? Biden, Kissinger, what year is it?

I don't know a single person in the US who has unilateral control over anything. Hell, none of the US people mentioned can consistently get anything done.

And the CIA had to repeatedly send memos to Cold War presidents telling them Stalin wasn't an absolute dictator that could do anything he wanted on word alone.

But I'm sure Xi has more direct control. Definitely no bureaucratic manuevering involved in 2025 China.
