Trump just copied the idea from Hu and Xi.

...and Reagan.

Haha, I wonder if the Chinese premier in Veep is based off of him.

Obama made Xi look like Winnie the Pooh. Xi must be much happier with Trump, as unhinged he is.

Alright, I have to ask. How did he make him look like Pooh? When I think of Pooh, I think calm to the point of naive, not very smart but sometimes philosophical, friends with all, and very fond of honey.

I'm well and truly confused. This is not entirely unusual.

It’s mostly appearance based, Xi Jinping looks like Winnie the Pooh and lanky Obama looks like Tigger, and it’s popularity as a meme soared after China censored them on Weibo.

I found that greatly amusing, though I'm not sure that the comment was just concerning physical traits. After all, who doesn't like honey?
