The Spin

Anti-Trump narrative

The self-styled anti-Communist crusader Guo, who has been found guilty of defrauding investors in a colossal, billion-dollar scheme, is just another MAGA fraudster. After all, how could we expect anything good of a Bannon-comrade who happens to have close relationships with the likes of George Santos, Donald Trump Jr., and Peter Navarro?

The Daily Beast

Pro-Trump narrative

The fact that Guo has been found guilty has nothing to do with politics, as the billionaire is connected to various politicians — including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair of the left-wing Labour Party. It's outrageous that some people are trying to use this case to slander Trump and his MAGA movement.
