Not long before he became president, Donald Trump reportedly paid $188,561 to the Chinese government in taxes, despite paying little to no U.S. income tax in most of the previous decade.

Until last year, a Chinese government-controlled bank was paying an expensive lease for three floors in New York City's Trump Tower. After Trump was elected in 2016, he sold a penthouse at one of his other properties in the city for $15.8 million to a Chinese businesswoman said to have ties with political elites in China and the Chinese government.

Trump reportedly attempted to pursue a licensing deal in China for most of the decade leading up to his presidency. His efforts included partnering with the Chinese government-controlled State Grid Corporation, a partnership that ended after Chinese authorities launched a corruption investigation against the company.

Trump International Hotels Management, the company holding the bank account that Trump paid Chinese taxes through, is said to hold direct ownership of THC China Development, a company that deals in the management of properties bearing the Trump name in multiple countries.reports that in 2017, the year after Trump was elected, THC China Development experienced an"unusually large spike" of $17.
