President Trump’s shift to a friendlier stance on China mirrors a startling change in public opinion. Across the political spectrum, more Americans are seeing China in a positive light. Surveys from leading pollsters, including two released this week, show that China’s image in the United States has improved markedly in recent years. People are still skeptical about China, but as Mr. Trump prepares to give the country’s leader, Xi Jinping, a warm welcome in Washington this week, his accommodation echoes what some experts see as a desire among Americans for a more stable relationship with Beijing. “There really is this warming toward China, even if on balance views still remain fairly negative,” said Laura Silver, an associate director at the Pew Research Center, which published survey data on Wednesday showing that 54 percent of Americans now have a “cold” view of China, compared with 68 percent in 2021. The surveys do not pinpoint the reasons for the shift, which appears to be more pronounced among younger Americans. But experts point to fading memories of the coronavirus pandemic, awareness of China’s tech innovations and disaffection with Mr. Trump’s trade wars as contributing to a changing mood that could affect how U.S. politicians approach China. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/us/politics/polls-us-china-trump-xi.html So ... yeah. All of you who thought that "China is eating our lunch", "China is stealing American jobs"..... y'all can just suck it. Trump has moved on. You should too.

More FAKE NEWS. President Trump hasn't changed his position on China in decades. He might be putting them at ease so they relax a bit before he rams it in.  |

Why wouldn't this be true if Trump is turning positive on China? His base will start to warm up to China. Xi couldn't have possibly gotten more of a red carpet reception. Trump greeted him off the plane, which for the welcome of a dignitary is equivalent to kissing his ... ring. |

He should have shot Xi's plane down as soon as it entered US airspace. Woops! Attached File |

TikTok alone is proof of this. It is the first major non-American social media company to become a hit world wide as well as in the US. Naturally people growing up addicted to various Chinese services will have a more positive view of the place. |

Your reasoning to support the main post is that people watch TikTok videos of random shit and think to themselves "I like China"? |
