President Donald Trump slammed The Wall Street Journal on Thursday, insisting that it wants to see China “WIN, BABY, WIN.”

“The reason that The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board is always negative on ‘TRUMP,’ and the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars we’re bringing into our Country through Tariffs, numbers that the U.S.A. has never seen before, is because they are China centric or, at a minimum, Globalists, and they would rather see China and the World, for reasons unknown, ‘WIN, BABY, WIN,'” wrote Trump on Truth Social. “If the United States were not able to charge Tariffs to other Countries, it would be Economically defenseless and, of no further force or effect. The only thing that can destroy our Country are Crooked, Radical Left Judges, of which there are many!”

The Journal has been exceedingly critical of Trump’s trade policy from the outset of his second term in office, and recently drew the president’s ire by publishing a report on a “bawdy” birthday card he addressed to Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump has denied the authenticity of the card and is currently suing the center-right newspaper.

“The Wall Street Journal, and Rupert Murdoch, personally, were warned directly by President Donald J. Trump that the supposed letter they printed by President Trump to Epstein was a FAKE and, if they print it, they will be sued,” declared Trump after the story was published. “President Trump will be suing The Wall Street Journal, NewsCorp, and Mr. Murdoch, shortly. The Press has to learn to be truthful, and not rely on sources that probably don’t even exist. President Trump has already beaten George Stephanopoulos/ABC, 60 Minutes/CBS, and others, and looks forward to suing and holding accountable the once great Wall Street Journal. It has truly turned out to be a ‘Disgusting and Filthy Rag’ and, writing defamatory lies like this, shows their desperation to remain relevant.”
