Which makes her pretty gullible or very dishonest (either is believable to me). The much vaunted China-US trade war didn’t do what Trump claimed it would and hurt Americans far more than the Chinese as many nonpartisan studies have shown (https://www.brookings.edu/blog/order-from-chaos/2020/08/07/more-pain-than-gain-how-the-us-china-trade-war-hurt-america/ - The Brookings Institute is considered centrist to left of center but this links to multiple studies from multiple institutions) but Trump claims to be ‘tough’ on China. Uh, yeah, just like he’s tough on Russia.
Anyone who’s watched Trump for the last 5 years should know he won’t hesitate to put his personal interests over the US’ interests. He does it in China, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Ukraine, etc.
“But Mr. Trump’s plans in China have been largely driven by a different company, Trump International Hotels Management — the one with a Chinese bank account.
The company has direct ownership of THC China Development, but is also involved in management of other Trump-branded properties around the world, and it is not possible to discern from its tax records how much of its financial activity is China-related. It normally reports a few million dollars in annual income and deductible expenses.
In 2017, the company reported an unusually large spike in revenue — some $17.5 million, more than the previous five years’ combined. It was accompanied by a $15.1 million withdrawal by Mr. Trump from the company’s capital account.”

This post is so misinformed on so many levels.
1. Trade negotiations take time and can be painful in the short term.
2. Worse idea would be to give the Chinese what they want - ie, manufacturing jobs and control of supply chain which would leave the U.S. dependent as we saw during the initial part of the pandemic.
3. Trump and every other business that does business in China is required to have a local bank account. As far as rest of financials are concerned, Trump's businesses have had a loss of 1 BILLION since his presidency started.
4. Democrats, including Chuck Schumer, supported Trump's anti China moves.
5. Joe Biden and his son are financially mired in Chinese schemes. So were the Clintons. Not so Schumer and some of the other Democrats. I believe Schumer will keep Biden's feet to fire on this.
6. Obama withdrew military support of former Communist bloc countries whereas Trump reinstated it. Yes, tough on Russia. He encouraged that alliance in the Middle East to isolate the murderous Iranians. Yes, tough on them.
There is a lot to dislike about Trump, as there is about Biden. I believe Trump needed to go because style also matters. Maybe not as much as substance, but presidents ARE expected to be an example, not merely a behind-the-scenes CEO.
Also, much like Kangana, he was using racial divide to win.
I would love to have someone with Obama's dignity and temperament and Trump's policies, TBH.
Kangana is a bigot, but she was perfectly correct in her statement about Trump/Biden and China. A China supporter in the White House is NOT a good thing for India.
