US President Donald Trump reportedly spent a decade unsuccessfully pursuing projects in China, operating an office there during his first run for president and forging a partnership with a major government-controlled company

US President Donald Trump spent a decade unsuccessfully pursuing projects in China, operating an office there during his first run for president and forging a partnership with a major government-controlled company, aChina is one of only three foreign nations — the others are Britain and Ireland — where Trump maintains a bank account, according to aanalysis of the President’s tax records.

President Donald Trump has threatened to separate the US economy from China's, engaging in a trade war with his counterpart Xi Jinping.The Chinese account is controlled by Trump International Hotels Management LLC, which the tax records show paid $US188,561 in taxes in China while pursuing licensing deals there from 2013 to 2015.

As for Biden, his public financial disclosures, along with the income tax returns he voluntarily released, show no income or business dealings of his own in China. However, there is ample evidence of Trump’s efforts to do business there. As with Russia, where he explored hotel and tower projects in Moscow without success, Trump has long sought a licensing deal in China. His efforts go at least as far back as 2006, when he filed trademark applications in Hong Kong and the mainland. Many Chinese government approvals came after he became president.

In 2008, Trump pursued an office tower project in Guangzhou that never got off the ground. But his efforts accelerated in 2012 with the opening of a Shanghai office, and tax records show that one of Trump’s China-related companies, THC China Development, claimed $US84,000 in deductions that year for travel costs, legal fees and office expenses.

OMG

At least Trump is for America first, not like Australia were everything you wear is made in China, probably made by the Muslims they incarcerated.

Yea. Is it ‘reportedly’ or reported. Who is the reporter here ?

You watch the SMH go to ground in the next 48 hours when this Biden debacle continues. Disgraceful tabloid.

POTUS JoeBiden

While our politicians are thrown under the Murdoch media bus for taking a photo with a Chinese national

All companies are government controlled in China.

I'm looking for your story on Hunter Biden. Might be looking a while.

How the CIA spy list was sent to XI

So before he became a President he did what many businessmen did. So what ? How about you report on actual China collusion by Hunter Biden and 'the big guy' meaning Joe Biden ?

Meanwhile Biden's were paid millions by China and a Ukrainian oil company in return for access to the VP

More TDS bullshit from SMH. Why not report Biden’s activities with China for his personal benefit.

So he knows them well, Chinese cannot be trusted. Fake news

No report on emails from the Biden camp? Interesting, social media is blowing up!! Ironically no mention from Australia’s MSM!!

And ? What's your point SMH ?

Orange Man Bad is better than pay for play Sleepy Joe...

Re Trump, it's always about his business dealings & money, never about the people. That's why he ran for the Presidency to make more money. The stupidity of the people in believing him is the proof of humanity's weaknesses.

SMH keep trump out of the paper, he’s just old fart news... not worth the ink written on the paper

Oh look, it was all legal.....yawn

Seriously run the stories on hunterbiden & JoeBiden

Trump has a bank account in China and it's headlines in MSM, Twitter and Facebook. Biden's getting dirty Ukraine money payed to him to organise shonky meetings with dad and MSM, Twitter and Facebook remove it from all platforms to cover for Biden. It's sickening stuff.

Trump had goods manufactured in China, as did Ivanka & countless others in the USA. Almost all manufacturing was done in China and USA lost millions of manufacturing jobs. Presently USA is ramping up manufacturing in USA to have 'made in USA' goods, most countries are doing same.

Trump in China = BAD BIDEN in China = SHHHH

Deep state

Not new news

Meanwhile folk like Gladys and Tudge are somehow still pretending they have a right to be in Parliament when all evidence points otherwise, but SMH crickets

The Sydney Morning China Post.

Pursing business in a growing economy like China is what everyone was and is still doing. What a pointless article.

Zoolander does my hair!

Joe/ Hunter Biden Laptop emails a real story unfolding morons do your fucking job.

So what? Last time I looked business people were allowed to business there. This is a sad attempt to take the focus off Biden and co who were doing underhanded business in China etc. WHILST in office!

That explains of him being “tough” (his trade tariffs) on China. 😉

So when Donald Trump wasnt in office, he tried to do business in China when most of the world was doing the same. Mark Cuban still does business there. Not sure how this is this newsworthy.

China's riddled with corruption, Pres Xi received a mandate from people's congress to clean it up. It seems he & his party were not on commission's radar only opposition parties, thus dealings with Biden & his son (who gave 50% to Biden & engaged in child abuse) weren't covered.

Who runs this paper ? So what ? Everyone is trying to source product from China. Most every big Chinese company is government controlled. We have an office in China. This is just more SMH half truth inuendo bs. More & more like Picture Magazine every week.

Even the bots are desperate and know it's over.

Sounds like Trump wasn't paying bribes, didn't enter into corrupt dealings. Biden on the other hand did engage in corruption & child abuse crimes. Countries where freedoms are curtailed & media's controlled are often riddled with corruption. Bribes are solicited by govt officials

So Trump in China was as successful as Murdoch.

You'd have to be a bot not to have known this.
