Well, we can rest a bit easier now. Ivanka's shoes will now be manufactured in Ethiopia.


Make Ethiopia great again!

But can we tolerate them insulting our leaders this way?

Trump is childish and impulsive, but that still doesn't determine what kind of president he'll be.

There is really no denying that.
Regardless of what they think, personally insulting the new president is not the best way to start off in our relations. Why provoke an impulsive person in such a position of power? Do they WANT to start something?

Who insulted who? The journalist in China? Just because a journalist in a state-run newspaper reacts to Trump's petulance doesnt mean the Chinese secretary of state did it.

State run = government censored. Did anyone denounce? No way something like that gets released without approval. Someone's head would roll.

We should breathe a sigh of relief that they don't like him. They'd love Hillary to death which would be a very bad sign.

China is right, but they left out that Trump is also an idiot. He is going to screw up every relationship and non relationship we have in the world, and he isn't even in there yet.


He is not simply bumbling, he is dangerous.

So they're supposed to handle the leader of the free world with kid gloves even though he shoots his mouth off at the smallest provocation? He gets to lie, insult and belittle people all day long but everyone else is supposed to be respectful?

He started this mess with his call to Taiwan and made it worse with his follow-up tweets. He's ignorant of U.S. foreign policy and so arrogant that he doesn't even understand how ignorant he is.

If we make it through the next 4 years without being attacked by a foreign government it will be a miracle.

Lol...this guy ^^^ I feel so sorry for how uneducated you are. A shill for China, the country that cares about no one except itself and how much money it can squeeze out of everyone else. China is just worried that the trade deficit might be erased a little bit.

Right now..China benefits more from trading with the US than the US benefits from trading with China.

Can any of you China shills dispute this fact?
