Liz Uihlein sent staff email with cartoon of Trump saying ‘I hold the cards’ to which Xi says ‘the cards are made in China’
A top donor to Donald Trump and other Maga Republicans has privately mocked the US president’s longtime position that he has an upper hand in trade negotiations with China, in a sign that even some loyal supporters have been uneasy with the White House strategy.
Liz Uihlein, the billionaire businesswoman who co-founded office supply company Uline with her husband Richard, sent an email to her staff earlier this year that contained a cartoon in which Trump can be seen playing cards with Chinese president Xi Jinping. In the cartoon, Trump claims: “I hold the cards”, to which Xi responds: “The cards are made in China.”
