"After counting the attitudes of 50 governors towards China, we found that the governors' attitude towards China as a whole is MORE FRIENDLY. Of these, 17 have shown obvious friendliness toward China, 14 have a vague attitude toward China, 6 have a tough attitude toward China"...
"The list of 17 GOVERNORS who have shown a clearly friendly attitude toward China is as follows, with statements focusing on opposing Trump's trade war with China and his repeated involvement in Chinese community activities or visits to China"...
"The list of six governors who have apparently taken a hard line against China is as follows: FOUR of whom have close personal relationships with Mr. Trump and three of whom have criticized China on human rights issues. For the party, there are FIVE Republicans and ONE Democrat."
The 6 "HARD LINE" anti-China governors are listed below (Five Republicans, One Democrat... NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo?)
