Chinese wisecrackers have coined the moniker “Chuan Jianguo” for President Trump, a Communist-sounding name that means “Building-the-Nation Trump.” The punchline is that if there is one country Trump is making great, it’s China.
Gao Wenbo, a public policy researcher at South China University of Technology, wrote in a recent essay that a Biden win would open up economic opportunities for China, but he warned it could also bring risks.
“With the background of the U.S.-China great-power competition, Biden’s efforts to rebuild U.S. alliances and strengthen America’s global leadership position also suggest some risks and challenges for China,” he wrote.
