From New York Times bestselling author Lee Smith comes a groundbreaking account of the US-China relationship, documenting how the US ruling class partnered with a communist regime to destroy America.
 
This is a story of power and ambition, greed and betrayal. It’s the story of how the ideas of one man – Henry Kissinger — influenced and in some cases directed the actions of US presidents for half a century and thus formed the world we live in today. Call it the the Kissinger Continuum. It’s the story of how US elites sold out their own country to a foreign power and impoverished their fellow citizens to enrich themselves. But it’s a story about courage and resilience, and the struggle for renewal and even redemption. For it’s also the story of how another man, Donald J. Trump, led the fight to challenge the gravest threat to US peace and prosperity since the Soviet Union and return America to greatness.

Genre:

  • "Lee Smith is a great American patriot…"
    President Donald J. Trump
  • “In The China Matrix, Lee Smith delivers a searing exposé of the most dangerous alliance of our time: America’s ruling class and the Chinese Communist Party. Smith shows how President Trump shattered the fantasy of a harmless China — and forced the establishment to reckon with the cost of their own corruption. This is a vital, urgent read."
    Tom Cotton, U.S. senator and author of the New York Times bestselling book Seven Things You Can't Say About China
  • “In his own inimitable style, Lee Smith documents how wrongheaded U.S. policies toward China helped create one of America's greatest geopolitical foes. As U.S. political and business leaders played footsie with the Chinese Communist Party in order to enrich themselves and their interests, traditional American industries were decimated with devastating consequences for American citizens and communities. Smith makes a very complicated, and consequential, history between the two countries easily readable and explains how Donald Trump is changing the dynamic for the better.”
    Julie Kelly, investigative reporter and author
  • “Lee Smith has written a definitive account of how the Chinese Communist Party promoted and then utilized factionalism in the United States in order to undermine American sovereignty, national security, and economic prosperity. The China Matrix provides an account of how this crisis developed, a framework for understanding it, and a proposal for restoring American strength and leadership.”
    Ted Cruz, U.S. senator and New York Times bestselling author
