President Donald Trump is rolling out red carpets for Chinese President Xi Jinping even as he portrays China as a global menace and decries Democrats as “communists,” according to reports from NBC News and The Associated Press. The Hill reported that Democrats in competitive races are fighting back against GOP’s communist labels.

The reception for Xi has drawn attention to the contrast between Trump’s domestic rhetoric and his engagement with China’s communist leader. Bloomberg compared Trump and Xi’s high-stakes summits, while New York Magazine also highlighted Trump’s ties to communists.
