Bullshit.... prove it....

China has been busy buying
Trump properties since the election and has granted
Trump a long-sought series of trademarks in the country
The
Chinese government and its state-controlled entities spent over $5.5 million at properties owned by Donald
Trump while he was in office
In 2016, the Republican became the first presidential candidate in decades to refuse to disclose his tax returns, a position he maintained throughout his four years in the Oval Office.
House Committee on Ways and Means published nearly 6,000 pages of Trump's tax records, covering 2015 to 2020 and spanning his time as president.
The most contentious revelation may be that of a
Chinese bank account, the existence of which Trump had dismissed during his 2020 presidential campaign, in a period when he labeled Biden "China Joe."
Alan Garten, a lawyer for the Trump Organization, told
The Times that the account remained open, but had been inactive since 2015. During a presidential debate two months later, Trump declared: "I closed it before I even ran for president, let alone became president."
The IRS records showed Trump declared foreign earnings from 22 countries or territories. In 2020, his last full year in office, he and Melania paid no federal income tax on negative income of nearly $4.8 million. That year, Trump paid more taxes to foreign countries—nearly $85,000—than he did in the United States.
That included 2017, the year of his state visit to China, when he declared $6.5 million in income from business activities in the country
Biden's
voluntary disclosures, meanwhile, have shown no income or business in China over the years. He also paid more taxes than Trump did.
