White House trade adviser Peter Navarro accused the Democratic Party and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) of being in cahoots in the 2020 presidential election to defeat President Trump.
Navarro leveled the charge Wednesday in the White House driveway. When asked by a reporter for evidence of the accusation, he replied, “It is obvious.”

“What I think is happening here is that the Democratic Party and the Chinese Communist Party have agreed on a common case to defeat Donald J. Trump and their whole strategy is based on blaming this administration for a global pandemic created by the Chinese Communist Party. Party, “said Navarro, director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy.

The Trump administration has recently taken an aggressive stance with China, from the closure of the Chinese consulate in Houston to the threat of banning the popular Chinese app TikTok. Navarro said that if Democrat Joe Biden won the presidency in November, he would transfer “the US” to the Chinese Communist Party and the American people “should be afraid.”
“If the Biden people can win in November, they will in principle transfer this country to the Chinese Communist Party,” Navarro said. “That’s the takeaway.”
During an interview earlier this month with NPRs First up, Biden said he would re-evaluate the Trump administration’s tariffs on Chinese imports and he criticized Trump’s unilateral approach to countering China’s growing influence.
“We are going after China in the wrong way,” Biden said. “China steals intellectual property. China stipulates that they can do business in China based on whether you have 51% Chinese ownership or not. That should end. “
‘The way China will react is when we gather the rest of the world … That’s when things start to change. That is when China’s behavior will change, “he added.
Throughout the convention, Democrats accused Trump of threatening the COVID-19 threat, misrepresenting misinformation about the American people and failing to quickly implement national policies that would keep Americans healthy.

One of the more blatant attacks came from Kristin Urquiza, who said her father died of COVID-19 after Trump believed the virus was under control and would disappear.
“My father was a healthy 65-year-old,” Urquiza said on the first night of the DNC. “His only existing condition was to trust Donald Trump, and for that he paid with his life.”
