jodi: that is the perception.us administrations, president obama and vice president biden had a large role in the foreign policy. expectation,of an but maybe not. a lot of people think things have changed. a lot of these tea couplings and issues that have the u.s. standing up more and standing against china on a number of issues including technology. they are now here to stay and even with a joe biden presidency there would likely be a tougher line on china certainly then there was during president obama administration. we had jp morgan saying that the market needs to look at president trump having a second term, what are people saying in your region? i don't know if people are talking about, given that biden becomes the next president or whether they think it could be president trump for four more years. jodi: people are watching this closely, and asia a lot of this revolves around china and what is going to happen with whatever administration this is, are these tensions going to continue? there is a lot of think

jodi: that is right. like this and the atlantic article about the comments he made disparaging the military, he calls it fake news, that he did not say it and hits back at the author. in this case, he is doubling down. he is saying, yeah, what can i do? i like this country. i did not want people to be in a panic rather than talking about the fact of what he knew when he knew it. he cannot deny this because it is on the tape. he is going with embracing the defense of, i did not want to panic people. we will see how this plays out. there is a lot of criticism already. we heard this from joe biden that the president not passing along the information he had about how they are lint the virus was going to be really endangered lives and he could have done something. that is the criticism. bidente: that is what joe is saying about this. is this likely to benefit joe biden -- benefit trump's reelection chances? joena: joe biden -- jodi: biden is leading in the polls. in the short run, this likely will help them. t

jodi: it really does mean very little. hence china a victory on paper, which china is happy to have, but the u.s. has hobbled the wto by dismantling the pound that oversees the appeals process. basically going to ignore this. we heard that from robert lighthizer, who is the u.s. trade representative. he said that this shows that the wto provides no remedy in intellectual property disputes. show, this report does china's response that they hope that the american side will fully respect the rulings. there is little chance of that happening. is there any chance of this impacting the phase one trade deal? will it shift things between the u.s. and china? interestingly, the u.s. seems to want to continue with that phase one trade deal that had been negotiated late last year, and announced in january before these tensions really had started. the u.s. is saying they still want to go ahead with that. robert lighthizer said it would have no effect on the trade deal. and that in that deal the u.s. and china struck greater protection
