People in China are closely watching the U.S. presidential election to see whether democracy holds.
It's one of the rare points of agreement between the U.S. presidential candidates: China is a major threat to the United States. Both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have campaigned with a hard stance against Chinese competition. And little wonder: Surveys show that U.S. opinions of China have sunk to an all-time low. But how do people in China see the U.S. election? The Times spoke with Yawei Liu, founding editor of the U.S.-China Perception Monitor.
How have Chinese perceptions of Trump changed since he was last elected in 2016? The majority of the well-informed Chinese elite probably didn't believe he could be elected. It was a bigger surprise that he was the first candidate who turned his campaign rhetoric into policies. You look at Clinton, back in 1992 said he was going to bring down dictators from Baghdad to Beijing. You look at George W. Bush say the U.S. and China are rivals, we're going to compete.
