Well, THIS is ironic

I read today that the man who recently signed the two bills making it so much harder for ASPs to work just got permission from the Chinese government to open 38 new Trump-branded businesses. Among them are - wait for it - massage parlors and escort services. As Lily Tomlin once said "No matter how cynical you are, it's impossible to keep up".

Prostitution being illegal has nothing to do with morality.  It's all about control and profit.  How many family values politicians get caught screwing their intern.  Hell how many of them that are anti-abortion and get their mistress an abortion.  American politics is corrupt to the core.

Source? Link? Only thing i have heard was Ivanka (who has signed no bills) getting 38 trademarks approved to market her lines of whatever ( cosmetics clothes ?) in china. Far cry from dad running massage and escort biz. Not saying you are wrong - but what is your source?

As it turns out the Trump cartel DID trademark massage and escort service names in China! BUT, and often there is a but, the consensus of most sources not on the far left is that doing so was a defensive move to prevent anyone else from trade marking T###p Escorts Inc.  Apparently Chinese laws are pretty lose about same. That is the story and they are sticking to it. Not sure i believe it. - or anything else that bunch claims. Pretty good articles in Slate and elsewhere about. But not so smart phone not link friendly!

The Chinese will trademark anything and everything. 

They will also issue Chinese web sites with U.S. companies names on them to confuse people doing a search for a particular U.S. company.
