Daily Caller: President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump are being treated like royalty on their first official visit to China.

Trump and his wife were granted a rare dinner at the Forbidden City, an honor that has not been bestowed on a foreign leader since the founding of the People’s Republic of China 68 years ago.

The president and first lady arrived in China, the third leg of Trump’s two-week Asia tour, Wednesday afternoon. After landing in Beijing, Trump and Melania toured the Forbidden City with Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan.

The Forbidden City, a massive palace complex, was the residence of the imperial family for centuries. At this world-famous site, which was shut down for this special visit, the leaders of two of the world’s most powerful countries enjoyed a Peking Opera performance and a dinner together. Such treatment is notably different from what former President Barack Obama received on his farewell tour.  read more

  1. Stroking his ego is part of it but they fear him. They realize they’re not dealing with the usual pushovers they’ve manipulated since Bush the 1st. Trump controls the strings to their economy and they are keenly aware of it.

  2. All well and good for diplomatic purposes, but the Chinese are playing Trump like a Stadavarius made in China. Meanwhile, stupid Kneeling BLM “ballers” are being held by Chinese police for shoplifting. The Chinese always have a bargaining chip.
    https://youtu.be/G3R6z6aTZn0 Sure, the Chinese are intimidated by Mr. Trump but they like to have some control. If President Trump can get these basketball player out of a Chinese custody, he may have to make a consession to do so.

  3. This is winning bigly.
    The Chinese are not sure what to do at this point, they thought they had him pegged , but they don’t. he can turn on a dime.
    Watch for more winning in the next few days.
    Remember this man , our President knows how to make a deal ; and he will.
    They know that he can stop their growth and he will play that card. We might pay a little more but it will be worth it.
    Little Kim will not sleep well tonight.

  4. Peking duck with chinese hot mustard sounds good right now. I’m jealous.

    Methinks Xi knows he’s being tasked with the norks and ain’t fucking around with politrics as usual.

  5. The amazing thing about President Trump (I just love typing that), he has been there and done that.
    Unlike O’Baja, he is not moved by celebrity or pomp.
    No Greek columns, no huge ass Bouncy, no kowtow.
    He has had the red carpet before, he will still fire somebody.
