It’s hyperbole.
China owns a bunch of US treasury bonds, but it can only dump those bonds to a US-approved buyer. So basically China owns low interest IOUs that they can’t do much with.

And if they did dump those at below market value, they'd be screwing themselves a lot harder than they'd be screwing us.
