A social media account that translates U.S. President Donald Trump’s tweets into Chinese recently appeared on Twitter. The account profile says: “Follow U.S. President Trump’s Twitter and get timely updates so that Chinese all around the world can understand Trump’s concepts of governance!” The account, which opened in September, attracted more than 13,000 followers within 3 days. At the time of writing, there are over 18,000 followers.
Although this account is not official, the translations are styled very similarly to Trump’s choice of words. Many Chinese netizens mistakenly thought that Trump had launched a Chinese Twitter account. Others guessed that this account was perhaps opened by Chinese people who support Trump.
