For starters, I think that’s false. More Americans do not believe China


Than the president. A sizable chunk of the country - maybe as high as 30%? - treats Trump’s twitter feed as their only news source. I don’t believe 30% of the US considers China more reliable. I bet at most 10% - the anti-Trumpiest of the anti-Trumpies - would fit your category. I think lots of Americans consider both nothing more than propaganda machines.

And that tweet that got the Redstate crowd so excited has nothing to do with any of this. They’re searching for a reason to feel like victims. The tweet is about hopeful signs of progress - in China, and here at home.
