What a scoundrel! How dare he interfere with enemy activity in his State?
Because all the wonderful patriotic Americans in Congress want to make America great. Only a neocon globalitht deep thtate free traitor would ban enemy foreign ownership of American real property.
I’ve always been told “real property” is land an everything unmovable on it.

Translation:
The Chinese pay very well
This is a great start now: 1) End all student visas from mainland China 2) End all work and residential visas from mainland China, I don’t care how wealthy or hard working they are. Mainland Chinese = Fifth column.
while trump sits in his basement thinking of mean nicknames for his enemies list ...
Chinese visa-holders ..... they hand out visas and green cards to the chinese like those guys handing out vouchers to get into a peep show. This bill, does a little, but doesn’t go far enough.
You forgot to add the .... /sarc .... at the end of your question.
They already own a lot of farmland ...
