The results of this survey show that a significant number of Americans, including Democrats, have concerns about President Biden’s potential conflicts of interest with China.
The Biden family’s business deals in China have raised questions about national security and the administration’s response to China’s aggressive actions.
Republicans and independents’ overwhelming belief that Biden has a conflict of interest with China may also affect bipartisan cooperation in addressing China’s threat to the United States.
