He needed the State Department to find that in their report that justified the pause. Either he’s allowing Blinken to provide an inconclusive report or he simply trusts him too much. Either way, that’s what he’s missing to take a firm stand.
Normal presidents don’t determine what they say or their policy based off mainstream news, let alone sources liable to call it a genocide like TikTok.
They get it from State Department and other executive branch briefings, and if those departments don’t classify it as one, then the president won’t either.

Omfg, a D&D campaign where everyone played caricatures of politicians could be super fun.
Meanwhile the same people are critical of Biden being tough on China, who has been committing genocide according to the UN since 1951.
Wow why are they so bad at genocide?
They are committing cultural genocide of the Tibetans and the Uyghurs. They’re unfortunately very good at it.
