Donald Trump claims China is 'the boss' of the United States

Former US President Donald Trump has claimed that China "the boss" of the United States and accused America of being a "subsidiary" of China.

Speaking to CNBC, Trump said: "China is right now our boss. They are the boss of the United States, almost like we're a subsidiary of China. The Biden administration has been so weak.

"Let American companies come back to America. If you want to sell a car in China, you can't, you pay a massive tax or a massive tariff. If we make our cars, we can't sell in China, they charge tremendous tariffs. They're very smart."
