President Donald Trump told reporters that China is spying on the U.S. and has launched cyberattacks against it, but that it’s okay. The President also said that it’s good to have 500,000 Chinese students in America. Trump’s statement came one year after The Stanford Review published a report chronicling CCP espionage at Stanford University.
“Did you talk to him [Chinese leader Xi Jinping] about the cyberattacks that he’s done in the United States or the MSS [Ministry of State Security – Chinese intelligence agency],” a reporter asked the President Friday.
“I did, and uhh, he talked about attacks that we did in China, you know,” Trump replied. “What they do we do too.”
“It’s like the spying, they’re talking about ohh the spying, I said well we do it too,” the President continued, going on to explain that it’s just “one of those things.”
The reporter asked about kill-switch code that China has embedded into U.S. infrastructure systems in order to be able to cripple the U.S. at the push of a button.
“Well you don’t know that,” Trump replied. “I’d like to see it, but it’s very possible that they do.”
Trump also said that it’s good Chinese nationals are buying up land near U.S. military bases to keep the farm prices up, something he himself admitted Americans cannot do in China.
“It’s not that I love it, you want to see farm prices drop?” Trump told Sean Hannity Thursday evening, justifying the national security risk.
Trump backtracked on a campaign promise, Newsweek reported Friday that:
On the campaign trail, Trump was already warning against Chinese acquisitions in the U.S.
At a Smithton farm event in Pennsylvania in September 2024, he said that the U.S. should block Chinese purchases of farmland, adding: “we don’t want you buying our land.”
Regarding Chinese college students, the President said that he likes military-aged communist country foreigners being housed within the U.S. – despite that country actively spying and hacking the U.S.
“I frankly think that it’s good that people come from other countries and they learn our culture,” Trump told Hannity Thursday evening.
In May 2025 The Stanford Review published a report chronicling Chinese espionage at Stanford University.
The investigation was kicked off after a CCP agent impersonated a Stanford student over summer 2024.
“Under the alias Charles Chen, he approached several students through social media. Anna*, a Stanford student conducting sensitive research on China, began receiving unexpected messages from Charles Chen. At first, Charles’s outreach seemed benign: he asked about networking opportunities. But soon, his messages took a strange turn,” the Stanford Review said. “Charles inquired whether Anna spoke Mandarin, then grew increasingly persistent and personal. He sent videos of Americans who had gained fame in China, encouraged Anna to visit Beijing, and offered to cover her travel expenses. He would send screenshots of a bank account balance to prove he could buy the plane tickets. Alarmingly, he referenced details about her that Anna had ever disclosed to him.”
The Chinese intel operation against STEM programs at U.S. colleges has been suspected for years. It aims to steal American research and technology to progress the Made in China 2025 (MIC 2025) agenda of the CCP.
“MIC 2025 is an initiative which strives to secure China’s position a global powerhouse in high-tech industries,” an Institute for Security & Development Policy report said in 2018.
Numerous Chinese-focused podcasts and news organization discussed the espionage report and elaborated on the findings with more evidence of the covert warfare.

Wouldn’t it have been better to set up a bond servant situation with the farmers from South Africa. Plenty of farms in America could use the help and after a period of years the bond servants (South African Farmers) receive a portion of the land for their trouble. Usually that’s 20 years. I had an uncle who was a bond servants in Idaho growing potatoes for a wealthy farmer. At the end of 20 years he received 40 acres of his own to till and he retired a millionaire and managed to send a son to West Point.
That’s conservative thought and it keeps white people on the ledger. What is to become of America with the Chinese moving in large numbers. Monterey Park is almost entirely Chinese. Why give them our farm land too??? Trump and his DEAL MAKING always manages to give away the family farm in his under the table deals. Sure make a few bucks with Boeing. Build them planes to make them an even more formidable threat. I can’t wait until Trump is a oddity in our political history. He is bond and determined to ruin this country with his damned deal making. Did he give them Alaska too? Not so long ago he was dealing with China on Alaskan gold & oil.
Lol you’re replying to your own thread in a literal echo chamber
If he did everything you retards wanted, you’d then blame him for prices dropping. Literally lose-lose scenarios with all of you midwits.
Trump is a POS. Total traitor, liar and Israeli pawn.
So are you on here to bash Trump or give useful critizsum. Trump isn’t perfect but he is better then a stupid Democrat who hates America and F Alex Jones fat pig stop derailing my post! Get a better site if you want my money!
Well said
Brown hands typed this
He’s a deal maker alright. This is how the Republicans rob Americans. Cut a deal with the Communists and sell them 500 airplanes that they will need to ship all of the profits back to China.
Hi retard. As if no other party has done this. Or are you a brown leftist.
He is proof in a two party system that two wrongs do not equal a right. I can pass for a leftist if I need to, mindless servant is the easiest behavior to emulate.
Traitor.
Oh yea he is a Traitor what about the Democrats they are just Saints wait until they get back in ass whole.!
He was supposed to take care of the democrats for us. The only campaign promise he has supposedly kept is securing the border. Now it sounds like he’s ready to trade Taiwan for Iran. Open trade with slave communist China but not Europe. The Dems are going to get back in because your false savior Trump isn’t doing a damn thing to stop them. They’re all Free Masons and they’re all crooked.
Hi retard
Is that your standard comment?
What a turncoat. Even JD Vance was adamant about stopping foreign investors from buying US properties and real-estate, but Trump has completely reversed his position. He’s swinging left. When are people gonna learn? Almost ALL Politicians are snakes and weasels.
It’s like Trump told the American people what (he was told) they wanted to hear – JUST TO GET ELECTED – and then, he promptly became a full-on GLOBALIST.
