And not a peep from the Trump cult when trump and his family are enriched by foreign money. Well, save for "whataboutism", as you are demonstrating quite neatly.It happened in 2013, not a peep from liberals.That's actually troubling and will be a major issue, should Biden run in 2020.Were you also suspicous when Biden went to China and a few days later his son got a billion dollar deal with them.The Chinese government has granted Ivanka Trump's company preliminary approval for another five trademarks this month, as her father's administration pushes ahead on trade negotiations with China.
Four trademarks, including child care centers, sunglasses and wedding dresses, were approved on Sunday. A fifth, covering brokerage, charitable fundraising and art valuation services, was approved on Jan.6, according to online trademark office records. The applications were filed in 2016 and 2017. If no one objects, they will be finalized after 90 days.
Ivanka Trump's expanding intellectual property holdings have long raised ethical concerns, particularly in China, where the courts and bureaucracy tend to reflect the will of the ruling Communist Party.
Critics argue that by asking a foreign government for valuable intellectual property rights, White House officials could open themselves to pressure in government negotiations. There is also concern that the family's global trademark portfolio would open the way for lucrative business opportunities once Donald Trump leaves office.
Ivanka Trump's lawyers in China did not respond immediately to a request for comment.
China grants Ivanka Trump 5 trademarks amid trade talks
****************************************
Trade talks ratchet up with China. Tensions calm down then Ivanka receives lucrative trademarks from the Chinese government.
Coincidence?
