We\u2019re going to get along good with China,\u201d Trump told reporters Monday during a meeting with the president of South Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI hear so many stories about, \u2018We\u2019re not going to allow their students,\u2019\u201d he continued. \u201cWe\u2019re going to allow their students to come in. We\u2019re going to allow it. It\u2019s very important \u2014 600,000 students. It\u2019s very important.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s comments marked a shift from earlier in the year, when Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he planned to \u201caggressively\u201d revoke visas from Chinese students, particularly those \u201cwith connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The president\u2019s openness to welcoming hundreds of thousands of Chinese students did not sit well with some members of his base, who questioned how it aligned with Trump\u2019s \u201cAmerica First\u201d mantra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe should not let in 600,000 CHINESE students to attend American colleges and universities that may be loyal to the CCP,\u201d Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) posted on the social platform X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhy are we allowing 600,000 students from China to replace our American student\u2019s opportunities?\u201d Greene added. \u201cWe should never allow that. And we need more trade school graduates.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laura Loomer, a far-right activist and staunch Trump ally who has influenced policy and personnel decisions in the administration, also expressed her displeasure with the move in a series of posts on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNobody, I repeat nobody, wants 600,000 more Chinese \u2018students\u2019 aka Communist spies in the United States,\u201d Loomer posted on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cChina murdered 1.2 million Americans,\u201d she added, a reference to the COVID-19 virus that originated in China. \u201cNow they get to replace us? This cannot happen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Michael Flynn Jr., the son of former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn, posted online that Trump\u2019s comments were \u201cNot what I voted for.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fox News host Laura Ingraham raised the issue with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick during her show Monday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMr. Secretary, with all due respect, how is allowing 600,000 students from the communist country of China putting America first?\u201d the Fox host asked on \u201cThe Ingraham Angle,\u201d noting it\u2019s been a long-running issue for conservatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lutnick argued without the 600,000 Chinese students, U.S. students would go to better schools with openings created by the lack of foreign students, and \u201cthe bottom 15 percent of universities and colleges would go out of business in America.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s comments came as he has touted the relationship he has with Chinese President Xi Jinping during trade negotiations between the U.S. and Beijing. The two sides levied huge tariffs on goods earlier this year, but brought the rates down significantly amid ongoing talks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump told reporters Monday that he hoped to visit China later this year or \u201cshortly thereafter.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump is facing outcry from some of his supporters after saying he plans to allow 600,000 students from China into the U.S. \u201cIt\u2019s a very important relationship.
