People’s Republic of China Grants Trump An Honor No Foreign Leader Has Had Since Its Founding
The Daily Caller ^ | Nov 8, 2017 | Ryan Pickrell

President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump are being treated like royalty on their first official visit to China.

Trump and his wife were granted a rare dinner at the Forbidden City, an honor that has not been bestowed on a foreign leader since the founding of the People’s Republic of China 68 years ago.

The Chinese humiliated Obama and forced him to exit Air Force One through the back.

In contrast, they bestow on Trump a high honor.

While Trump is reviled at home, the Chinese know the measure of the man.

Unlike Obama, Trump isn’t going around apologizing for America.

Obama is someone you wanted to step on; Trump earns your respect.

Guess now the media is going to go from “Russia, Russia, Russia” to “China, China, China”

“While Trump is reviled at home, the Chinese know the measure of the man.”

Very well said.

Considering that during every single year of the entire last generation, America’s trade deficit with China has continued to increase.

I would ask why they have taken so darned long.

We can’t have a President the world looks up to.

According to Democrats and Never Trumpers, he’s too dangerous to be allowed to remain in office.

The Chinese don’t share their poor opinion of Trump.

You may be interested to know that our fiscal deficit is a major cause of the trade deficit, due to the artificial demand from all those borrowed dollars.

All roads lead to the despicable Congress, of which the Republicans now control.

The finger should be pointing at them and not the Chinese.

China, and most countries, understand strength... and respect it. obama sent us into danger with his apologies and weak positions. Weakness invites trouble. Trump understands strength through the many deals he has worked through .. he makes me proud!

The two men respect each other...When Xi was here Trump went out of his way to make Xi and his wife comfortable and welcomed.

The Chinese are intelligent and hard working BUT they’re newbies to the ‘ins and outs’ of capitalism. To be a top world power they need that understanding... Trump needs to understand that region of the world. Both men comes to the table with gifts and needs...

Not to mention screaming at Obama’s staff, “This is our country!”
