On Friday, 600 American companies publicly opposed President Trump’s tariffs on Chinese imports. While this “China Lobby” professes opposition to Beijing’s unfair trade practices, they don’t want him to use that countermeasure to address them.

The day before, Senator Marco Rubio raised an alarm about Beijing’s exploitation of our stock markets to underwrite its companies – including some engaged in “unrestricted warfare” against us. The Senator challenged index fund MSCI about its practice of helping PRC businesses raise billions of dollars here without the sort of transparency and risk disclosure required of American corporations.

The effect of this practice is to expand enormously the China Lobby by recruiting millions of Americans whose pension funds can then be manipulated by the Chinese Communist Party. President Trump needs our support for standing firm against this foreign adversary and their allies here.
