on U.S.-China relations, reducing it as a mere "disturbance." But this week, that all changed.
With Trump securing major victories
on the road to the White House, China issued a scathing criticism of
the U.S. election process and the candidate who has "opened a Pandora's
box in U.S. society."
In an editorial published this week, China's state-owned Global Times newspaper condemns the billionaire candidate as "big-mouthed" and "abusively forthright."
The
Global Times claims Trump was initially supposed to "act as a clown to
attract more voters for GOP." Instead, it goes on to imply that the
Republican party lost control of Trump -- who has now become the party's
worst nightmare.
The editorial also uses Trump's political
rise to highlight America's decline and the failings of democracy,
saying: "Mussolini and Hitler came to power through elections, a heavy
lesson for Western democracy."
In its
final paragraph, the Global Times warns that the United States should
watch itself from becoming a global destructive force before pointing
fingers at China for its "so-called nationalism and tyranny."
