Report: Tax records show Trump tried to land China projects

President Donald Trump waves after a campaign rally at Erie International Airport, Tom Ridge Field, on Oct 20, 2020, in Erie, Pennsylvania. WASHINGTON: 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, The New York Times reported on Tuesday .

“No deals, transactions or other business activities ever materialised and, since 2015, the office has remained inactive,” Garten said. “Though the bank account remains open, it has never been used for any other purpose.”China continues to be an issue in the 2020 presidential campaign, from the president’s trade war to his barbs over the origin of the coronavirus pandemic.His campaign has tried to portray former Vice President Joe Biden as misreading the dangers posed by China’s growing power.

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.

From the article: 'The Times said Trump's tax records show that he has invested at least US$192,000 in five small companies created specifically to pursue projects in China over the years.' SO WHAT?

The most corrupted guy on the planet!😂
