chinagate

Chinagate is the name of a scandal in the United States associated with improper campaign donations to the Democratic Party. Allegedly the ultimate source of this money was the government of the People's Republic of China. John Huang and Charlie Trie, both members of the China lobby and friends of Bill Clinton, have been indicted on charges of campaign finance abuse in connection with such donations. The nickname comes from a trend of naming political scandals by appending "gate" to the end of a word that summarizes the nature of the scandal. This calls to mind the most damaging political scandal of modern politics, the Watergate scandal of the Nixon administration which resulted in the resignation of the President of the United States under threat of impeachment.
