encourages asian hate among his deplorables

They don't care about Asian hate in the US; they may even support it so their most valuable people aren't tempted to immigrate to the US.

wants to do everything to hurt China.

China is one of the many, many issues on which Trump talks a big game but didn't actually do much about.

With Trump, the CCP knows they can bribe him with personal things (like trademarks) that don't cost them anything to get what they want in foreign policy; as they, the Saudis, Russians, and everyone quickly figured out Trump is more than willing to undermine America's interests for his own gain.
