    Biden: “Let’s not.”

    Sort of neuters them when they attacked the leading opposition candidate for being a xenophobe against China. Biden can't come out on Day 1 and start issuing a lot of restrictions on China, for obvious reasons. Why not admit Trump was right and we should have jumped on this a lot sooner? The China thing got really bad during Obama/Biden. That is when most of the intellectual property theft occurred.

    (A) Trump didn’t do anything about intellectual property theft, nada!
    (B) Chinese intellectual property theft has been going on for decades.
    (C) Prior presidents from both parties have failed to address it, yet now Biden gets criticized for not doing it sooner.

    We've known for some time the threat that China is. We've known that Chinese companies are subservient to the CCP. We have known the sectors that China has made technological advancements in that threaten our national security. The knowledge to make this decision existed years ago.

    Both sides WAY overplay the Evil China card. Trump thinks "fair trade" means equal trade, but wait it gets better. The metric he uses is the trade deficit. what a joke. Now both parties are stuck & must keep pursuing stupid BIG GOV policies based mostly on ginned up fear. the sheep love it.

    Trump’s biggest contribution to China relations is pronouncing it Chyna. That’s about it. Trump was about marketing. It apparently worked on you.

    "China will continue to present an aggressive and relentless threat to U.S. economic and national security interests," he said. "But the Justice Department can prioritize countering that threat without the need for an inflammatory moniker."

    But only one side tried to overthrow our democracy and is still supported by a majority of its party.
