Companies like Apple and Disney came under particular criticism from Barr for their alleged willingness to bend for Beijing.
at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum in Michigan on Thursday, Barr said that while American companies were focused on the next quarterly earnings report, “the Chinese Communist Party thinks in terms of decades and centuries.”
On the issue of Hollywood studios like Disney allegedly censoring its movie to access the Chinese market Barr said, “I suspect Walt Disney would be disheartened to see how the company he founded deals with the foreign dictatorships of our day.”
