China's state-run Global Times newspaper urged the world on Monday, shortly before the start of the Iowa primary, to “prepare for the possibility of Donald Trump being re-elected as president.”
Trump, who served as president from 2016 to 2020 and maintained an aggressive anti-communist foreign policy, decisively won the Iowa caucuses hours later by the largest margin in the history of the Republican contest. As a candidate running against left-leaning incumbent President Joe Biden, Trump has prioritized challenging the Chinese Communist Party's spying efforts on America and seeking reparations for the Party's role in causing the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic.
Trump has also condemned Biden, whose family has for years been involved in business with Chinese businessmen linked to the regime, for not being serious enough to address the threat China poses to the United States and the world.
The Global Times routinely shames the United States for holding presidential elections, calling it a “low-quality democracy” compared to the totalitarian and repressive government in China under genocidal dictator Xi Jinping. The newspaper on Monday asked its stable of US political “experts” to weigh in on the Iowa caucuses before it happened, which it lamented that Trump would likely emerge as the Republican presidential nominee and do well in Iowa.
