Wharfie,
Yeah, China too.
If there is one thing that has been consistent in the midst of Trump's ever-changing political positions, it has been his belief in America first.

That has been reflected many times in his trade wars with China, which the media has often criticized. I too have criticized his trade wars and his reliance on tariffs, but he stubbornly believed in his goal of moving manufacturing back into America.

With the pandemic and China acting in bad faith, many countries all around the world are re-evaluating whether to continue depending on China for cheap labor and manufacturing. Japan is doing this already, and so is Korea. Italy will no doubt follow suit, as will the rest of Europe.

Bottom line is that, when it comes to China, Trump was already ahead of the curve.

Compare that with Joe Biden, who has consistently been on the side of globalism. He even once said that Brussels should be the "capital of the free world." That guy has been soft on China for the get-go, and that reflects the general foreign policy of the Democrats, starting with the Clinton administration and continuing through Obama's. Even Bush was pro-China.

So no, not "China too." You are free to remain in denial, but when you Democrats once again lose the swing states, you'll asking yourself again why you keep losing to such a dumbass like Trump.
