An Instagram video of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s 5-year-old granddaughter, Arabella Kushner, has exploded on Chinese social media.
The video, posted by her mother, Ivanka Trump, features Arabella reciting lines from classical Tang dynasty poems in Mandarin to celebrate the lunar new year. She even wears a traditional Chinese blouse while speaking the language extremely well.
Her grandfather has repeatedly said he will renegotiate trade deals with China once he takes the Oval Office, but perhaps his granddaughter can help get negotiations underway.
President Xi Jinping recently told Trump that “cooperation is the only correct choice” for China and the U.S.
Meanwhile, Trump has asked for security clearance for both of Arabella’s parents, Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner.
The real estate mogul and former reality TV show star shocked the world last week when he upset Hillary Clinton to win the U.S. presidential election after months of being written off by pollsters and the majority of mainstream media.
Kushner, who is a real estate and media mogul himself, emerged as an instrumental advisor to Trump who played a key part in the presidential campaign. He appears to be one of Trump’s most trusted allies and is even on the White House transition team.

Michelle Obama
The First Lady is a terrific public speaker and one of the most likable members of the Democratic Party. She has said the job doesn’t interest her. However, if Trump isn’t unifying the nation as his term winds down, expect Democratic leadership to beg her to run.
Booker is a talented campaigner who is one of America’s most prominent African-Americans. The New Jersey senator is extremely popular among his peers, and his speech at the 2016 Democratic National Convention was widely praised.
The Vermont senator is arguably the most popular left-leaning politician in America and came close to upsetting Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination. WikiLeaks emails exposed how the DNC favored Clinton, which may embolden supporters who argue it's his turn. But Sanders is now 75 and may be considered too old in four years.
The Massachusetts senator could pick up supporters of the Bernie Sanders movement, and she’s not afraid to fight back against Donald Trump. "We are going to be smart, we are going to be organized, we're going to use our time and talents in a strategic and careful way, but we are going to fight back," she recently told MSNBC. "We are not going to turn this country over to what Donald Trump has sold."
The outgoing vice president considered running against Hillary Clinton in 2016 but decided not to after the 2015 death of his son Beau. Biden is popular, particularly with working-class voters whom Trump lured from the Democrats. But he's 73, and like Biden may seem to old in four years.

Mark Cuban
Well, we can't laugh anymore at billionaire reality TV stars with no political experience. Cuban has shown a passion for politics and was a special guest of Hillary Clinton during a presidential debate. He is openly anti-Trump and might have the personality and attitude to beat the president-elect at his own game.
The governor of New York is a staunch supporter of same-sex marriage and gun control. Cuomo is popular in the Empire State and a close ally of Hillary Clinton.
