Trump fetes Chinese president, while feigning to fight communism
What happened
According to the article, President Xi Jinping of communist China visited President Trump, who did not allow American journalists into the White House but welcomed Chinese state-owned press. Trump spent three days with Xi, releasing a self-promoting TV ad claiming that the US will defeat communism, socialism, and Marxism. Trump honored Xi with a 21-gun salute, a state dinner, and a military fly-over.
Why it matters
The event highlights a perceived inconsistency between Trump's words and actions regarding communism, as he has previously met with other communist leaders, including Putin and Kim Jong Un. This has led to accusations of hypocrisy and criticism of Trump's handling of US-China relations. The article suggests that Trump's actions may undermine his claims of opposition to communism.
