Uhum... wait, what?

He will construct “freedom cities” filled with flying cars

Trump laid out a plan early last year to build 10 “freedom cities” on federal land as part of what he described as a “new American future.” The cities would feature flying cars so as to ensure that “America, not China, leads the revolution in air mobility.”

Let's skip the flying cars (🤦) part for a moment... isn't "building cities on federal land" like, what communist China does?

Yes, and he doesn't want to lose to them! He'll show China that he can do State Capitalism even better than they can!
