Should voters be concerned that a President Joe Biden would let China influence his policy decisions?

In the final stretch of the 2020 election, President Donald Trump and fellow conservatives have been attempting to paint former Vice President Joe Biden as financially beholden to China.

Biden continues to hold a substantial lead in the polls and early voting, and the accusations are murky at best. While polls can be deceptive and there could be a late surge of Republican voters to balance out the early voting, what few undecided voters still remain are expected to vote for Trump regardless of the China story.

Yet, even if it is merely a calculated political hit, Biden’s ties with China are of genuine concern, particularly if he wins. As president, Biden would play a major part in guiding the diplomatic and economic alliance between China and the United States, one of the most important geopolitical relationships in the world.

Over the last couple of weeks, Trump has repeated, “If Biden wins, China wins.” He has used this line in interviews on Fox and during campaign events, while also alleging China “will own the United States” in the event of Biden’s victory.
