    We're at the stage where the US president is asking China to directly interfere in American elections and China's government is saying that they don't think they should do that.https://twitter.com/globaltimesnews/status/1179934878579617793 …

        Your politics are very similar to ours in the UK at the moment, we are going to have possible collusion with Hungary for the benefit of the Conservative party

        China doesn't have elections and know there's a very real chance Trump is gone in 2020 and they're dealing with a politician with a mandate to punish the crap out of then China is despotic and terrible, but also pragmatic and rational.
