Summary

Donald Trump has reportedly invited Chinese President Xi Jinping to his January 20 presidential inauguration, though Xi’s response is unclear.

Trump’s transition team has also considered inviting other world leaders, including Hungary’s Viktor Orbán.

Known for his tough stance on China, Trump has named prominent China hawks like Marco Rubio and Mike Waltz to key positions.

Trump plans to reintroduce tariffs on Chinese imports and restrict Chinese ownership of U.S. assets.

    Trump doing the opposite of what he said he would do is just his average Wednesday so I doubt they’ll even notice.

    Even if they did, it’s a 4D chess move to trick the Democrats. It’s complicated. You wouldn’t understand. /s

      I’m sure it’ll be like “it’s a power move you see” as if giving someone you dislike attention and a chance to reject your invitation is a best play with that goal in mind. Especially when he also asks Orban, who he famously likes, to come as well. Just waiting for the Kim Jong Un invite.

        It’s the weave.

        As in, he’s weaving his saliva right into Putin’s knob as America cheers him on.
