I think it’s more likely that the Chinese exposed him...a few days prior to this meeting in Palm Springs this weekend. The main topic with the President and the Premier? Cyber warfare.
At this point, the Premier can respond that he’s only engaging in legal warfare because America is trapping vast amounts of data on Chinese citizens. Fair is fair.
The President will sit there, and have no argument. And this meeting will end with no further discussion.
Good point.
