Donald Trump Laughs Off China Reducing U.S. Movies Amid Tariff Drama: ‘I Think I’ve Heard Worse Things’


Donald Trump got asked about China's decision to reduce the amount of Hollywood movies it plays in the country. The president laughed.

“I think I’ve heard of worse things,” Trump answered while laughing and cracking a smile as the room of reporters also chuckled. Hollywood is currently sitting at the top of China’s box office charts thanks to the blockbuster success of “A Minecraft Movie,” which debuted with a massive $313 million during its global opening weekend. “Minecraft” was the first U.S. film that managed to dethrone China’s animated movie “Ne Zha 2,” which has been a runaway success in the country with $2.11 billion in 10 weeks.
