US President Donald Trump has said China desperately wants Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden to win the election in November, so Beijing could "continue to rip-off the United States, as they have done for decades."
"China is on a massive disinformation campaign because they are desperate to have Sleepy Joe Biden win the presidential race so they can continue to rip-off the United States, as they have done for decades, until I came along!" Trump tweeted on Wednesday night, but did not provide any evidence to substantiate his claim.
Trump in earlier posts said Chinas "disinformation and propaganda attack on the United States and Europe is a disgrace."
