In the case of both Uncle Xi and President Trump, we should remember the words of George Orwell in his 1944 classic, Animal Farm: A fairy story: “Twelve voices were shouting in anger, and they were all alike. No question now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”
