China wants to unseat President Donald Trump. It is engaged in massive public diplomacy campaigns as well as surreptitious and malicious use of social media for this purpose.
At the moment, it appears Beijing’s ongoing anti-Trump effort will exceed Russian meddling both this year and in 2016.
Today, Fox News reported that Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said China, engaged in “election influence and interference” and other activities, is the greatest national security threat to America.
Ratcliffe is correct. As an initial matter, Beijing this year has issued, in both Chinese state and Communist Party media, propaganda intending to tar the Trump administration. The volume of newspaper stories, social media postings and pronouncements looks unprecedented.
Moreover, the Communist Party’s Global Times, a tabloid, and the Chinese Foreign Ministry have been engaged in apparently coordinated public disinformation campaigns targeting Trump. Two of these campaigns were especially vicious, one over the coronavirus epidemic and the other in connection with the George Floyd protests. In the later campaign, the Chinese looked like they were trying to stoke racial tension.
Finally, Beijing has unleased its trolls and bots against Trump. This offensive has been multi-faceted. For instance, the New York Times reported that Beijing this March tried to cause chaos in America by spreading, through text messages and social media feeds, rumors that the president would invoke the Stafford Act to lock down the entire country. Beijing obviously knew the coronavirus rumors were false.
In addition, as Fox News reported last week a Chinese operation, dubbed “Spamoflage Dragon,” had been relentlessly attacking the president. YouTube, Facebook and Twitter have taken down its accounts.
Twitter and other sites have periodically purged fake Chinese users. In June, Twitter removed 174,000 of them.
And then there is TikTok, the mobile video-sharing app.

SLAM SANCTIONS ON THE COMMIES.
China and Iran both want Joe.
That should be the election right there folks....
“. . . it appears Beijing’s ongoing anti-Trump effort will exceed Russian meddling both this year and in 2016.”
What was the Russian meddling in 2016? A few Facebook ads no one saw?
Both China and Iran want the old times back when they got great trade deals and cash by the buckets full. Joe will be like Christmas for them. They will spend anything, do anything, to keep Trump out of office. I would not put assassination past them. Cover it up—get a Democrat fall guy to take the rap (and have him shot—like Oswald). I fear the worst will come between November 3 and January 5th—Maybe a real Coup with Obama Generals capturing the White House and arresting Trump/Pence for treason. This could be the start of CW II. They hope Americans will bow as they do to BLM—Take a knee to President Nancy. They will go too far.

You keep forgetting India. If Biden wins, it’s a huge win for the Indian-dominated tech and outsourcing industry. Biden and Harris has promised to Make America into India.
Indian H1Bs and overseas Indians have promised on Twitter, Reddit and other social media to give shit-tons of money to Biden and use tech to support Biden. That includes using the mainly Indian-based moderators to shut down conservatives.
I’m pleased that Fox is still up to reporting things like this.
it’s blatant. If you look at the twitter feeds for any hashtag (city)protest, there are numerous chicom trolls pushing for more action, more violence. They’re not real good at English sentence structure or spelling. You won’t see the nationals at the beginning marches but sooner or later you’ll see their faces up front in the action for a quick moment as they record their tictoks for social credit points back home and then melt back into the crowd.
