About this episode

The episode discusses Donald Trump's visit to China and the diplomatic tensions surrounding it.

Donald John is initially led around China by Miriam Adelson after China's President Xi refused to meet the American delegation at the airport, prompting Trump's own niece (Mary Trump) to post "Xi couldn't be bothered to meet Donald at the airport because he understands as well as Donald does that humiliating your underlings is a great way to keep them in check."
