Some people are accusing Donald Trump of inconsistency. Today in China he praised his hosts and attacked his own country:
“I don’t blame China – after all, who can blame a country for taking advantage of another country for the benefit of its citizens… I give China great credit,” said Mr Trump while addressing a room of business leaders.
They contrast it with the tone he struck during the campaign last year:
“We can’t continue to allow China to rape our country, and that’s what we’re doing,” he told the campaign rally on Sunday.
But why would anyone assume Donald Trump thinks badly of rapists?
