President Donald Trump is taking Chinese President Xi Jinping to the National Archives to cap off a three-day state visit criticized for being heavy on pomp and light on substance. Trump says he wants to show Xi the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights on Friday. Xi is head of the world’s most powerful communist country. The Republican U.S. president has been seeking to demonize Democrats as communists before the November midterm elections, a message muddied by the red-carpet treatment he has given Xi. The two leaders have made a show of working to preserve harmony, though there were no major breakthroughs on issues like trade or artificial intelligence safety.
