"Trump's Mixed Messages on China: Praise for Xi and Tariff Threats"
TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump's comments expressing a desire for China to "do great" and praising President Xi Jinping have sparked reactions online, with many pointing out the apparent contradiction with his previous anti-China rhetoric. Trump also suggested he would not start another trade war with China if reelected, but would impose tariffs on Chinese-made goods. These remarks come amid criticism for his refusal to explicitly state whether the U.S. would support Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion, and concerns about his business dealings with China while in office.
