This is a red herring.
Chinese gov't statements on Twitter are different. I'll explain.

They do not argue Presidents have an obligation to be truthful with the American people.
They don't ask Trump to stop making false statements.

Shouldn't an American President be deeply embarrassed that @twitter had to flag their statements as false?
