Trump advisor: China wants Biden to win US 2020 race

White House trade advisor Peter Navarro says China wants former Vice President Joe Biden to win the 2020 presidential election, rather than Donald.

"This whole election is setting up, both in China and with the DNC, as a battle between a nice guy and a tough guy. And we like that matchup, because I think the people of America will always choose a tough guy in the White House over a nice guy, because they know the world's a dangerous place," he said in an interview with the Fox Business Network.

Navarro further attacked the Democratic nominee for his past record, particularly those allegedly in favor of China.

"[L]et me ask you a couple of questions here... Does a nice guy vote for NAFTA and ship millions of jobs off to Mexico and spawn millions more illegal immigrants coming north? No. But Joe Biden did," said the White House trade advisor. "Does a nice guy let China into the World Trade Organization and have tens of thousands of factories across the Midwest go to China?"

The Trump 2020 reelection campaign has for months sought to tie Biden to China.

A CBS News poll of registered voters nationwide found that 75 percent of Republican-identified voters said under Trump, the country is better off now than it was four years ago.
