Then, on Sunday, President Trump suddenly tweeted: “President Xi of China, and I, are working together to give massive Chinese phone company, ZTE, a way to get back into business, fast. Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done!”

Here's the background on Trump being worried about China's jobs. Telling that Iran and North Korea were involved too.
Here’s a quick recap of the situation. ZTE, a major Chinese manufacturer of phones and telecom network equipment, was busting U.S. sanctions against Iran and North Korea by selling equipment there, despite the fact that the kit used American components. Last year the Justice Department fined ZTE almost $900 million over the Iran stuff, and also got ZTE to agree to a seven-year suspended denial of export privileges.
In April, the Commerce Department said ZTE had broken its agreement with the U.S. government by giving full bonuses to the employees involved in the illegal Iran sales, failing to reprimand them, and also lying about this to the Commerce Department.
So the seven-year ban on U.S. components kicked in, and last week ZTE informed its investors that it had ceased its “major operating activities”—it simply couldn’t make its products without parts from the likes of Qualcomm and Intel, and its inventory ran out. YAHOO

“It was funny seeing that presidential debate,” Anthony said. “I wrote that song about those people.”
A clip of Anthony performing was played by Fox News moderators at the start of the Republican presidential debate on Wednesday night in Milwaukee, after a series of videos of Americans lamenting conditions under President Biden, including inflation and homelessness.
The clip showed Anthony — with guitar in hand and two dogs at his feet — singing: “These rich men north of Richmond / Lord knows they all just wanna have total control.” NYT
"people like me and people like you" LINK CLIP (song)
My QUESTION for you Chief: just what do you have in common with Trump? He has spent his whole life being a silver spooned fraud, He has spent his life involved in 4,000 legal actions. Multiple Grand Juries from four states have returned indictments against him. He's a rapist. Hes from NY Manhattan and just like the men from North of Richmond, Trump want's total control!
So Chief, just what is it about Trump that is like you?
