Not long into Trump's second term I read that senior Chinese officials were calling him Orange Santa. I hope it's true.
But there has been a meme in China for ages that Trump is secretly a Chinese guy named “Chuan Jianguo” (Jianguo means “building the nation”) who was sent by China to destroy America from within.
Although answer is probably simplest - for himself and his ego.
I cant imagine the mental gymnastic any half decent republican must be going through daily to keep avoiding utter debiliating shame for voting him when doing the proverbial look in the mirror.
Why?
