Overview
- The @teamtrump TikTok labeled China's leader as "President Zi" in a clip of him walking with President Trump, and the campaign later removed the video.
- Screenshots kept circulating after the X account Headquarters highlighted the typo, though it wrongly said the White House had posted it.
- Social media users mocked the mistake, and neither the Trump campaign nor TikTok offered public comment on the deletion.
- The post went up during Trump's state visit to China, where he and Xi discussed Taiwan, Iran, and broader U.S.-China relations.
- After the trip, Trump told reporters he had not decided whether to proceed with a U.S. weapons sale to Taiwan, a key issue still unresolved.
