A Chinese company is producing flags for President Trump's re-election campaign despite a looming trade warLink to tweet
Washington (CNN) Flags for President Donald Trump's re-election campaign are being produced in China, one of the flag manufacturers said in an interview on NPR, despite a looming trade war.
Li Jiang owns a factory that began to make flags after China became part of the World Trade Organization, according to an interview with Li on NPR's "The Indicator." The factory made products for both the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Trump campaign in 2016.
"We also make flags for Trump for 2020. It seems like he has another campaign going on in 2020. Isn't that right?" Li said in the interview, which had been translated through an interpreter, according to a transcript from the show.
Li went on to say that making flags for Trump's 2020 bid "is completely normal."

(That said, I remember making a sarcastic comment after 9/11 that the little American flags my large company at the time gave out to all its employees were made in China)

(30,765 posts)She wants all flags used by the government to be made with materials manufactured here. She wants the flags made in the USA.
I don't understand why this did not pass the first time around.

Who knew there were so many Americans operating flag-manufacturing companies in China?
I always wonder if the people sporting MAGA hats and tee-shirts ever read the Made in China labels and put two and two together. But of course they don't.

That came to mind.
