This is China sending a very clear message to Biden’s team. Play nice or don’t expect any future board positions, lobbying positions or consultancies with any company doing business with China.
Replying to @marwilliamson @NPR
Yep. I'm not sure if they are worried about Biden. It's just that they are taking a parting shot at trump.

Unless you’re a fascist communist. Embracing China is not a good look.
Replying to @marwilliamson @NPR
You should be concerned for reasons you are wholly unaware of. 🙄
Replying to @marwilliamson @NPR
Think about what you’re celebrating. Please.
Replying to @marwilliamson @NPR
As if we'll be going after them...
