" China is just ripping this country (the US) like nobody has ever ripped us before and we don’t have our talented people... we don't use our great business people to negotiate. We use some diplomat," Trump told Fox News. "I do a lot of business with China and I'm not knocking them... if you can get away with something you do it. The Chinese come over and tell me that they can't believe what they're getting away with," he added. Trump, 64, was speaking after the American media reported that residents of New Hampshire received calls in September asking them if Trump should run for president as a Republican candidate in 2012 but he says he didn't commission the poll. The Apprentice host said one the reason he is now considering running for president is to change present policies, which could cost the US its position on the world stage. "You try doing business in China its impossible ... and yet they come over here and they make everything... the problem is that we don't make things anymore... we make it in China and other countries and we really have problem," he said. The business tycoon also blasted the US government for putting up with China's "unfair trade" policies. "I love the concept of free trade but not unfair trade and that's unfair trade... what they do with us is unfair trade... you can't do business in China... you can't go there and even open up a store in China and yet they come here and they take over the place," Trump said. "We're no longer respected the way we used to be respected and if we keep going like this then China is going to overtake us in 10-12 years easily," he added. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithar Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) Finally someone in America who isn't afraid of speaking the truth about China, although trump is the kind of guy I wouldn't want to see in power since he is all about corporate America, he wouldn't give a $hyt about the common working man.
