Well what you're saying is inherently a fallacy. First of all, China is an authoritarian state where the 3000 central representatives are selected and appointed based of vigorous examination. China was much less structured and more dictatorial back in Mao's era, however, you're completely wrong when you try to categorize China as a 'communist dictatorship' because it is a socio-capitalist economy which is run by a progressive meritocracy. This is not to say the country doesn't have its fair share of human rights issues, however, might I point out western media portrayal is not accurate at all as they are backed with corporate interest and independent agendas, i.e Fox discrepancy with CNN and so on..
I also dont' see your point when you say Trump should or shouldn't be on the side of democracy. It sounds like a redundant point to me because he is the leader of a country with a supposed 'democratic' system that is actually controlled by corporate interest groups. America has a massive reliance on China, to the point where there is literally a trade deficit with the country. Trump's trade war policies aren't panning out well for his own citizens either. A simple survey across manufacturing and agriculturally dominant regions of the country will show you not everyone is happy with the ever-ugly labor statistics and dropping income sustainability.
China will develop itself in its own way, but your categorization is fallacious and appeals more to emotional rhetoric rather than facts. Yes, Tianamen square incident is real, yes Mao made extremely bad mistakes, however, like all parties and governments, development and variation is evident in every sector, much more in a country like China where the demands of nearly 1.5 billion citizens must be met. Xi's administration has been met with harsh backlash from the western world unsurprisingly, but critics of the West will simply point out that it's expected because ideologies are concurrently in contrast. China seems to have become the new USSR, a status to which I view with extreme discontent.
In the modern world, it seems like people don't give nearly enough credit to what China has become in the short span of 40 years. Social momentum brings about its vast set of problems that should be tackled slowly. Blind criticism and hatred will only perpetuate fear, to which no progress of collaboration can be made. Do not forget, China's uplifting of 600 million people out of poverty is a pretty obvious indication that it does live to serve its people. It may be viewed with doubt from the eurocentric sphere, but statistics do not lie. Communist dictatorships don't become the number 2 biggest nominal GDP in the world. Need examples? Look at Venezuela, Cuba, North Vietnam, USSR and NK. Too many examples to show how TRUE dictatorships and regressive societies do not drive progress but rather pure suffering.
Open your mind.
