Commentary: Trump Supporters Must Avoid Overconfidence
The assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump has led his supporters and some, though not all, of his opponents to acquire a greater perspective on the most important things in life. It has also led his supporters to a broader recognition what is not necessarily important in the present campaign.

Americans firmly reject the Chinese agenda of acquiring U.S. assets, especially vital strategic ones like American farmland.
