In Turkish the word for China is “Çin”. Apparently when aliens described to ancient people living in Levant as human like hidden creatures from far places. It was kinda too hard to distinguish from China. Think about how you were thinking about the world when you were a child. “J” sound is closest to Turkish “Ç”. C/Ç/J are kinda modern variants anyway. The word for Jinns and Turkish word for China are actually just the same. And beside few potentially later distorted excripts Jinns are just referred like humans in Quran. Frequently as Humans and Jinns. And without any metaphor Chinese people are literally aliens for Arabs for that era. (Also it can be speculated that China was a mystical place for someone from Middle East. It is not like America where they don't know anything about but rather a place connected with long Silk road. Likely a slightly interesting thing seen in the one end was turning to a pretty exaggerated story at the other end.)
Additionally there are some interesting things. Like the word for paradise and Jinns are the same. From this page you can see the classification of words under the same root. But this is not really about two word being classified under same root though. There is a very specific word that can mean both depending on the context. I think this reflects underlying clear positive view on Aliens. This word is very frequent and fundamental. This situation may reflect expectation that aliens will make the world paradise.
Additionally in Turkish language the same word used to refer a crazy episode. Again this is not related to root classification we are talking about the same word not the root prefixed with something meaning crazy according to literature. "Cinnet geçirmek" used for having a crazy episode in Turkish. The idea of a crazy person being influenced by Jinns reflected on Quran. This is the case for if you think based on the root classification. Even if it is originating from Quran it not necessarily stands for mentally ill person occpied by mystical creatures. It may be just referring to humans trolled and manipulated by aliens to think and act crazily. This is not a foreign idea in context of Quran. For some reason it is frequently mentioned some actors will drive some people crazy because of their crookedness or some other reasons though. This is not from contexts of Demon or anything like that. It is about them sequezing the potential. Humans are like cows they milk. Although you know milk is often hard to digest. I guess they are making Cheese. And cheese is the delicacy. If they are created as creatures who likes cheese, it is like God's desicion. So something like royal we is pronoun in context of Quran. If you were to be an alien with ultra advanced technology discovered earth what would you do. The ideas like aliens would ignore humans are beyond joke. After no need, everything is fantasy. And this would be the final fantasy can be imagined in this universe. (I mean in universal scale. Not my individual fantasy. I would want to sabotage it but obviously I have to try to stick with believing in destiny instead of pursuing such impossible goal for my minds sake. It is like going to a fire with oil truck. The more people realize it the more they go crazy. Not talking about average Joe. Hoping aliens get bored soon after thousands of years what unique things can happen. Maybe Jesus comes like a divine intervention and they follow him. Cheese+sız. Like no cheese anymore. “sız” is suffix like -less. Or maybe Mohammed converted them and they are following some sort of plan according to Quran. Quran is full of this kind of stuff. Especially last sections. Americans not just being trolled they are also actively aiding and abetting to aliens by demonazing drugs that makes people sane and promoting drugs like SSRIs that actually works by making people delusional. Which causes more issues in long term. For their inferior purposes though. Although it is dose dependent and it can be speculated everything is based on delusions. Maybe it is aliens giving humans a scapegoat for what is coming. Somewhat like alcohol. How everybody exploits alcohol. I could believe it if haven't tried it. But still it may hold some truth. Although it is just releases you acting more freely. Blaiming alcohol for something is kinda exposing yourself. And it seems like it is mostly about ignorance in world. But still it is hard to not imagine various sects having crazy beliefs induced by aliens and also implementing these restrictions and false promotions and publications on drugs. It is impossible to distinguish ignorance and different intents.)

China (If Trump was thinking Chinese were aliens until 15. That is kinda irreversible peg at some level. It is possible that he frequently mentions China uncounciously because he thinks about aliens very frequently. He is 79 and this is more than possible for his generation.)
