The narrative was Trump promised the Chinese something so Ivanka can get her trademarks granted. Of course with time we see that Trump didn't sell out to the Chinese, instead he started a trade war.
But more immediately the whole thing was nonsense. If you give me $500 I'll get you a Chinese trademark. I won't have to promise sweetheart deals from the US- they get granted routinely. If Ivanka ever got the Chinese government to enforce a trademark and seize counterfeit stuff, well that would be a smoking gun, but granting a Trademark? Please.
