You realize that continually making excuses to try to reduce facts that are presented as counter to your claims weakens your argument?
It does. So does trying to discredit the one making the argument.
Trump is just as far into China as anyone.
And vice-versa.

That's almost as bad as sniffing hair, I see your concerns thanks for clearing that up.

Genuine question.
Imagine I am British and don't come around here much anymore. That I've been busy and don't really keep up to date.
I've seen dozens of references to this and I know his son is apparently a bit shifty and has ties with China but why the panic?
What exactly do people think he's going to do?
A simple and real explanation would be preferable over some clever nicknames and hearsay with some vauge talk about sniffing kids heads.

No, I am telling you why Trump apparel would be made in China. Maybe you've never dealt with a manufacturing supply chain. Don't understand how licensing works. To those uneducated in supply chains, yeah, the optics don't look great. However, it is what it is...
Again, most apparel is made overseas. One does not have to like it but if you want something made, it may be your only choice. Trump was selling clothing branded with his name. Again, the manufacturing is SUBCONTRACTED out. I'd be surprised if he even knew where the stuff was made.
The actual "business" was selling his likeness on goods whether it was steaks, Trump U, water bottles, neck ties, etc... other companies oversea the making of the goods, selling, and distribution.

Sellout the US in what way? What damage could have been done? Was biden himself definatley involved or hearsay?
Is it real or just everyday political smearing and shenanigans?
please tell me you are kidding. Trump let the Dems impeach him?

Most don't understand that President Trump (MAGA) is the one that put the Democrats in power. He chose Joe Biden last year in the Ukrainian deal, he let the Dems impeach him to seal the deal, and then he made sure that the two Senate Seats in GA flipped for the first time in modern history.
Trump (the once and future President, MAGA) is in complete control. He doesn't need to be in office to lead.
President Trump has already defanged the Dragon. He's totally obliterated their economy, crippled their military, and formed a Secret Pact with the Kim Dynasty to invade China if needed. (They really do love each other, Trump and Jong-un, Trump has a very nice letter.)
No other President in history has done half of what Mr. Trump has done. Literally no other President comes close.

Why do lobbyists donate millions to campaigns? To get what they want when that candidate takes office.
What do you think China wants?

So, the man who claimed that he was equalizing the trade balances between China and the US, and bringing manufacturing back home, can't find any other solution than to use cheap Chinese labor to be profitable?
I'd say lead by example, but it's Trump.

How does Biden's son have anything to do with what Biden does?

For one thing, his son got to fly with VP Biden on Air Force 2 (my tax dollars at work) for private business activities (the infamous "Burisma" company, among others).
Further, under the Obama administration and with the influence of VP Joe Biden, Hunter & Biden's brother James secured all sorts of deals with companies in eastern Europe & China which amounted to millions of dollars in income.

It’s just a scare tactic to make the election of a family of rodents, for a second time, seem like a good idea.
Both sides do this, especially when their own side has nothing to offer. They go negative on the opponent.
