Chinese social media users have mocked Donald Trump with an AI-generated video showing overweight Americans working in factories.
A viral 30-second clip shows a series of miserable-looking rotund Americans slowly sewing garments and building smartphones on crowded shop floors.
The video, which is set to Chinese music, is called “make America great again” and has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times.

China has everything to gain from a weakened America. These tariffs will hurt China short term. Long term it’s America that will be hurt the most.
Won’t hurt china short term too, Americans are stock piling products from china. Even SKorea, Samsung report records sales due to stock piling. The people hurt will be Americans who buy dirt cheap china product to rebrand and sell in US at astronomical prices. The tariff tax on Americans by Trump will eat into their profit. They may probably just raise prices.
We just bought a car because of this shit (South Korean, naturally)
Yes.
But slapping an insane tarrif on MAGA hats doesn’t change that.
It just hurts MAGA even more.
I really don’t understand, do you people think if the price of a MAGA hat 10x, they’ll stop buying it?
Do you think trump will start making it in America?
He’d jack the price up 10x more, keep that, and say China is attacking MAGA
they are probably already marked up more than 10x.
This only works if someone else can’t make the hats for less than 10x the price China can. These aren’t something special. Any har company in the world with red fabric and yellow thread can do it.
