Donald Trump keeps talking about his presidential platform—if he actually does run in 2012—and last night, while appearing on CNN, he weaved his current distaste of China and the Chinese at length. Trump proposed a 25% tax on all Chinese products (sorry Wal-Mart shoppers!) and said he wouldn't give the Chinese leader a five-star meal at the White House, "If we don’t work out a deal [at my office], we send him to McDonald’s and send him home." Guess the Chinese are only helpful as investors when Trump has financial problems.
