In January of 2017 Donald Trump was elected the President of the United States of America after a politically polarized electoral campaign, especially in the century of information and network Society. It is in this context that this work aims to explain how Donald Trump was a builder of the media agenda on the trade war with China issue during his term (2017 – 2021). The hypothesis is that the media debate construction on the trade war was made by the use of Twitter by the ex-president. It is understood that the concern with China was incorporated as a political communication strategy by the Trump government and, consequently, influenced the U.S. public opinion on the subject.
