Key quotes
We’re going to be talking to President Xi about a lot of things. I would say, more than anything, trade.
We have a lot of things to discuss. I wouldn’t say Iran is one of them, to be honest with you, because we have Iran very much under control.
We’re either going to make a deal or they’re going to be decimated one way or the other.
My relationship with President Xi is a fantastic one. We’ve always gotten along and we’re doing very well with China, and working with China has been very good, so we look forward to it.
