Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer D-N.Y. called Trump’s marathon trip to Asia a “flop” on Sunday.
Schumer, a fervent supporter of labeling China a currency manipulator, urged the administration earlier this year to name China a manipulator.
On the campaign trail, Trump vowed repeatedly to combat currency manipulation and slap China with a label.
“Trump Asia trip a flop: POTUS acts like a lap dog to Xi and China, but talks tough to our friends in Southeast Asia. Presidency by misadventure,” Schumer tweeted.

Trump reversed his stance on labeling China a manipulator earlier this year, and after meeting with Xi Jinping this week, Trump heaped praise on China.
Trump also took a complete 180 on his view of China’s trade practices, which he’s called unfair.
The president blamed the U.S. for the trade gap between the two countries.
