The US does not specifically borrow from China. What happens is that after approval by Congress, the Treasury Department offers bonds for sale and foreigners are allowed to buy them if they wish. They are sold at auction. The president has nothing to do with who buys the bonds. Bonds can also be resold and transferred to new owners. Therefore, it is hard to know who owns them or when the first Chinese national bought a US bond. However, it is known that until 1972 or so, foreigners owned less that 5% of US treasury bonds, so Nixon would be a reasonable guess as the first president who started "borrowing" from China.

Government bonds, known in the United States as "Treasury bonds," are monetary or security debts issued by a specific country with the intent to repay the buyer, with interest, over a predetermined period of time.
The yield of a bond is the interest that it pays (annualized) divided by the purchase price of the bond (taking into account any discount or premium on the price). Treasury yield refers to the actual interest rate on bonds issued by the U.S. Treasury. Treasury yield is not a single number, because they issue bonds with many different maturities (from 1 month to 30 years); the yields on the 2-year and 10-year bonds are the most commonly-quoted benchmarks.
