'China doesn't want to see me elected': US President Trump makes spectacular allegation

US President Donald Trump on Thursday alleged that China does t want to see him elected in polls due later this year, mainly because of billions of dollars he has been taking from m as import tariffs. Instead, he claimed, China wants to have former vice president Joe Biden elected as next US president in vember elections. Biden is presumptive minee of opposition Democratic party.

"China doesn't want to see me elected and reason is that we are getting billions and billions of dollars, many billions of dollars a month from China," Trump said, referring to massive tariffs he has imposed on import of Chinese products into US.

"China never gave our country anything...wher it was Biden in charge of China which was a joke because y ripped off our country for eight years and in all fairness to Biden and (former US President Barack) Obama, this went on long before y got into office," he said.

"I mean, you can go through many administrations until I came along and n we find a trade deal where y are supposed to buy and y have been buying a lot actually. But that w becomes secondary to what took place with virus. virus situation is just t acceptable," Trump said.

"I don't want to cast any aspersions; I just will tell you that China would like to see Sleepy Joe Biden. y would take this country for a ride like you've never seen before," Trump said in response to a question.

However, opposition Democratic party slammed him on his China policy.

"Trump put his political fortunes first and our public health last. He refused to call out China on its coronavirus response and delayed taking action to mitigate crisis out of fear of upsetting his trade deal that has gone largely unfulfilled. w Americans are suffering consequences," Democratic National Committee deputy War Room director Daniel Wessel said in a statement.

"We'd say Trump is weak on China, but that's an understatement. Trump rolled over in a way that has been catastrophic for our country. He did thing for months because he put himself and his political fortunes first.

"He refused to push China on its coronavirus response and delayed taking action to mitigate crisis in an effort to t upset Beijing and secure a limited trade deal that has largely gone unfulfilled," Wessel said.
