China has fast become a top election issue as President Donald Trump and Democrat Joe Biden engage in a verbal brawl over who’s better at playing the tough guy against Beijing.
and Democrat Joe Biden engage in a verbal brawl over who's better at playing the tough guy against Beijing.
“Which person looks more subservient to the Chinese leaders is the person who’s in more jeopardy,” Luntz said. Trump's advisers see China as an opportunity to portray Biden as deferential to Beijing when he was President Barack Obama's vice president and point person on Asia, according to three campaign officials and Republicans close to the White House. The campaign made a push in May to link Biden with China, complete with an advertising blitz, but the effort did little to raise Trump’s poll numbers.
That message could strike a chord with the increasing number of Americans who have an unfavorable view of the Asian power. There also is rising concern about U.S. dependence on China for supplies — something that drew attention during the scramble for protective gear for U.S. health workers. “Trump said he’d get tough on China,” one of Biden campaign ads says. “He didn’t get tough. He got played.”
