(TargetLiberty.org) – The State Department has sent a Twitter warning about the dangers posed by the Chinese Communist Party. With the election still in dispute, it’s a worrying reminder of why we can’t afford a president who’s soft on the brutal dictatorship in Beijing.
In a series of four tweets on December 17, the State Department reminded the American people that China is not our friend. The messages said:
- America is a sovereign nation dedicated to protecting its citizens.
- It’s taken a while to recognize the real nature of China, but now we know – it wants to dominate the free world.
- China is a real threat; the US wants it to start acting the way other nations do.
- The communist threat extends to our financial markets. Money from US investors is funding China’s military buildup and human rights abuses.
President @realDonaldTrump: America is a sovereign nation and our first priority is always the safety and security of our citizens. https://t.co/955k8a9miC pic.twitter.com/16MhoqK0QV

President Trump has always taken a firm stand with the Chinese communists – on trade, on their role in the coronavirus pandemic and on their military adventurism. This is not the time to ease the pressure on Beijing.
