Trump arrives in China to make a deal...

He needs them to help resolve his war with Iran.

He will give them anything they want up to a trillion dollars.

Traveling with him are Marco Rubio, Elon Musk, and a couple of family members, including Eric and his wife.

China is probably Iran's largest customer for Iranian oil. They are also equipped to offer Iran military assistance.

Trump wants someone to stop him before he kills again.

interested in making business deals for his corrupt family and friends.
Iran is secondary and beyond his abilities.

...but the blunder in Iran has put a temporary damper on his quest to rule the world and all its gold.

So he comes out of the plane with Eric and Lara, and Elon Musk. Not Marco Rubio or any other senior government official. This is going to be the grift to end all grifts, ‘like nobody’s ever seen before.’

Well, the Donald went down to China
He was lookin´ for some oil to steal
He was in a bind, 'cause he was dealin' blind
Didn't know his toe from his heel

He came face to face with Xi Jin Ping
All flush with oil and new-mined gold
And the Donald jumped out of Air Force One
And said, "put Iran on hold!

"You probably didn't even know it, but I'm a business genius too
"And if you dare to take a scare, I've a rotten deal for you
"Now, you make your products cheaply, but give the Donald his due
"I'm a big time cheater and a big chest beater, and I know how to turn a screw!"

Xi grinned and said "my name is Jin Ping, and I look like an easy mark
"But I see through your scam, and I'll make VietNam
"Seem like a walk in the park!"

Give the Trump family some bullshit deal, and then ask for the removal of tariffs/trade restrictions on chips etc...

Trump will talk about getting a great deal!

Will Iran be settled. I feel this is unlikely.
