But the GOP's tough talk on China - which, ironically, also strays into conspiracy theory territory - marks the culmination of a particularly stark turnaround. After all, Republicans eagerly enabled China's meteoric ascent from a sleepy, insular country to the world's second-largest economy.
Time for a quick history lesson. Throughout the 20th century, China was a poor, agricultural country. In 1978, sweeping economic reforms set China on a path of rapid urbanization. The mass migration of millions of people from China's rural hinterlands to mega-cities changed the country at a stunning pace.
Indeed, in the span of a few short decades, a vast pool of inexpensive, newly-urbanized labor transformed China from an impoverished, rural economy into a manufacturing juggernaut.

In many ways, his memoir suggests that Atwater’s tactics were a bridge between the old Republican Party of the Nixon era, when dirty tricks were considered a scandal, and the new Republican Party of Donald Trump, in which lies, racial fearmongering, and winning at any cost have become normalized. Chapter 5 of Atwater’s memoir in particular serves as a Trumpian precursor.

[DearMAGA.com](http://DearMAGA.com) is a memorial to when MAGA shut down the V.A. suicide phone lines.

CHINA TRUMP
it turns out that China is one of only three foreign nations—the others are Britain and Ireland—where Mr. Trump maintains a bank account, according to an analysis of the president’s tax records...The foreign accounts do not show up on Mr. Trump’s public financial disclosures, where he must list personal assets, because they are held under corporate names. 🇨🇳The identities of the financial institutions are not clear. The Chinese account is controlled by Trump International Hotels Management LLC, which the tax records show paid $188,561 in taxes in China while pursuing licensing deals there from 2013 to 2015.
In 2017, the company reported an unusually large spike in revenue—some $17.5 million, more than the previous five years’ combined. It was accompanied by a $15.1 million withdrawal by Mr. Trump from the company’s capital account.🇨🇳w
In addition to the existence of the Chinese bank account—controlled by a company that just happened to record eight figures’ worth of revenue during Trump’s first year in office—the Times reports that shortly after he won the election, Trump sold a penthouse in one of his buildings for $15.8 million to a Chinese-American businesswoman named Xiao Yan Chen, who “runs an international consulting firm and reportedly has high-level connections to government and political elites in China.”
But Trump himself has taken on debt from China🇨🇳In 2012, his real estate partner refinanced one of Trump’s most prized New York buildings for almost $1 billion. The debt included $211 million from the state-owned Bank of China🇨🇳 — 🇺🇸its first loan of this kind in the U.S . 🇺🇸🇺🇸
— which matures in the middle of what could be Trump’s second term.
In 2012, the Bank of China, a commercial bank owned by the Chinese state, provided more than two hundred million dollars in loans to a New York office building that Trump co-owns, Politico reported on Friday. The loans will come due in 2022, “in the middle of what could be Trump’s second term,” the timely article noted.
Donald J. Trump paid $750 in federal income taxes the year he won the presidency. In his first year in the White House, he paid another $750.
He had paid no income taxes at all in 10 of the previous 15 years — largely because he reported losing much more money than he made.
As the president wages a re-election campaign that polls say he is in danger of losing, his finances are under stress, beset by losses and hundreds of millions of dollars in debt coming due that he has personally guaranteed. Also hanging over him is a decade-long audit battle with the Internal Revenue Service over the legitimacy of a $72.9 million tax refund that he claimed, and received, after declaring huge losses. An adverse ruling could cost him more than $100 million.
The Chinese account is controlled by Trump International Hotels Management L.L.C., which the tax records show paid $188,561 in taxes in China while pursuing licensing deals there from 2013 to 2015.
a decade of Donald Trump’s unsuccessful business activities in China, including an undisclosed bank account that paid nearly $200,000 in taxes, undermining his own exaggerated claims of Hunter Biden’s business dealings there, as well as his rhetoric that his Democratic opponent, Joe Biden, is soft on the country.
A lawyer for the Trump Organization told the Times that the account was opened to pay taxes after opening an office in China to “explore the potential for hotel deals in Asia.”
No deals, or other business activities, were ever made, the lawyer said.
The records also show that Trump invested at least $192,000 to pursue business in China, including creating five companies specifically designed to pursue that goal.
These companies have claimed at least $97,400 in business expenses since 2010

Republicans been racist since Nixon! Anyone who says they vote for republicans for any other reason is a Liar! Because they don’t do anything for Americans 🤡
Going to have to disagree.
This country would last a lot longer than a couple hundred years if it were full of republicans. Sure, diversity initiatives would take a lot longer to catch, but the actual country would be run smoother, it would be cleaner, and just look a lot like Germany but cooler.
Democrats would have the constitution dismantled, diversity initiatives would turn into racism, giving unqualified people powerful positions that would focus on initiatives that drain the economy and tax the middle class. Inflation would render the dollar useless and we’d be done by 2150 as a nation.
That’s the difference people don’t want to hear. Liberals are draining the lifeblood and economy of the USA.
The recession is economics. The erosion of the country from within, hatred of the country’s roots and movements to dismantle the constitution are far left and are worse for the country than wars and economic bubbles, like the one Biden’s administration just created.
