Consider, then, that the $200+ million Trump owes the Chinese government is due "soon," per POLITICO, meaning Trump knows he has China's support for his re-electionas it has leverage over him it wants to keep*and* that now is his time to cut a deal.
Trump owes tens of millions to the Bank of China and the loan is due soon
(The president's financial dealings with the state-owned bank complicate his attacks on Biden.
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/24/trump-biden-china-debt-205475)
It is in this context(1) Trump owing the Chinese $200+ million;
(2) having them as a major renter bringing him tens of millions;
(3) he and his family knowing they want to cut a clandestine deal;
(4) him having coupled personal and U.S. policy and tried to hide it... {cont.}
(5) Pillsbury getting Biden dirt from the Chinese during the same 7-day period Trump demands it; and
(6) Trump warning the Chinese that he has "leverage" to get what he wants because of the trade war *he* startedat the moment coronavirus appears in China in November 2019.

He's been laundering our Nat'l Treasure & our State secrets right into the hands of our worst adversaries.
Because he & his spawn are all in debt to every one of them.

(32,626 posts)the article says the loan is due in 2022...that's a lifetime. And it was written about before the 2016 election.
The article is about the GOP stirring up anti-China sentiment, and trying to paint Hunter Biden as a grifter like Trump, using his father's name to get on the inside track. Isn't this the same stuff that was aired pre-primary?

(15,325 posts)Thank you Sen Duckworth & all who take Trump's distracting & outrageous news pressers as a certain reason to dig deeper & pull back the curtain of his side-show.
