Donald Trump arrived in Beijing atop Air Force One accompanied by a heavyweight delegation of U.S. business leaders and billionaires whose combined net worth exceeds a trillion dollars, including Elon Musk, Tim Cook (referred to as “Tim Apple”), Jensen Huang of NVIDIA, leaders from Apple, Boeing, Meta, Mastercard, Visa, Goldman Sachs, Micron and others, as well as filmmaker Brett Ratner. Trump announced that his first request of President Xi will be to “open up” China for these companies to make deals, hoping to revive U.S.‑China trade after recent tariffs that have slashed Chinese purchases of American goods. The entourage also sparked controversy, with Musk facing potential legal trouble for traveling abroad despite a court order, and Trump defending the inclusion of Huang after a media report claimed he had been snubbed. The trip underscores Trump’s pattern of surrounding himself with corporate titans to pursue economic and diplomatic goals in China.
