Donald Trump revealed on Monday that he has been in contact with one of the United States' biggest adversaries ahead of taking the oath of office.

The president-elect told radio host Hugh Hewitt that he and his team have been speaking with representatives of Chinese President Xi Jinping.

'We've already been talking,' he said. 'We've been talking through their representatives.'

Trump, who takes office on January 20, said he believes he and Xi will get along well. He had invited the Chinese leader to his inauguration but Xi declined.

'We will probably get along very well, I predict,' the president-elect said.

However, he also had a word of warning.

'You know, it's got to be a two way street,' he said, repeating his accusation that China has been 'ripping off' the U.S.

Trump has said he will impose an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods unless Beijing does more to stop trafficking of fentanyl.

Biden hasn’t quit trying to hurt the American people. He just banned drilling for oil in a huge area. He did it to derail Trump’s plan to cut energy bills in half by 2026. Biden is a corrupt scumbag who works for billionaires who want America to suffer. He should be locked up under the prison. I don’t care how much they bitch and moan about it.

I’ll bet he either goes to NK again or has KJU at Mar-a-lago within a year.
