2024 US Presidential Election

Trump is a living testament to the right’s repudiation of freedom. Fortunately, Harris is showing what it looks like when progressives embrace and advance this core American value.

Griffin believes Trump to be in favour for a win, but at 'almost a coin toss'.

The senior minister, who spoke at the FutureChina Global Forum on Oct 18, also touched on the Chinese economy, China’s fundamental change and more.

Harris said the question was among the “issues that we will deal with if and when it arrives at that point”.

China has invariably been an important topic of discussion in past campaigns, starting with the October 1960 debate between Richard Nixon and John F Kennedy.

Whether it is the coming presidential election, how America’s economy performs, what its central bank will do, how the USD will move or how much oil it could produce — all these matters greatly to us.

“She’s done one debate. I’ve done two,” Trump said. “The voting is cast. The voters are out there.”

In the immediate aftermath, Trump emailed supporters to declare he was “safe and well”.

A Trump presidency with more tarrifs could be self defeating, but Harris may struggle to overcome party protectionist pressures.
