Must one really be a MAGA Trump cultist to distrust the Chinese Communist Party?

Compared to what? A trillion-dollar US corporation? The US government?

What I'm really alluding to is nationalism, which at this point in the US is mostly synonymous with MAGA.

Although, I've found the US people in general are pretty nationalist by Western standards, even liberals, progressives, and many other (not all) members of the left. It's basically this webcomic: https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:720/format:webp/0*W8YT...

So sure, if you distrust the CCP more than your own government or largest corporations, you don't have to be MAGA, just an indoctrinated nationalist.
