The Spin

Pro-Trump narrative

This call shows Trump's dealmaking prowess in action. The president successfully addressed the rare earth minerals crisis that threatened American manufacturing and defense industries. His direct approach with Xi broke through bureaucratic gridlock and got both sides back to productive negotiations.

Pro-China narrative

China maintains the moral high ground here, consistently implementing the Geneva Agreement while facing American provocations. Beijing's patient diplomacy and Xi's emphasis on mutual respect contrast sharply with Washington's erratic policy reversals and threats.
