  1. Before Trump, we saw the United States’ insane growth rate and its black hole-like absorption of global genius. So we assumed American hegemony would last forever, and anyone who didn’t invest in American stocks was considered a fool. But… 

  2. trump might still get his award. Won’t be the peace prize though, more like “China’s MVP”.

    It helps that China dialed back the Wolf Warrior diplomacy shit they were doing in Trump 1.0 this time and adopted the ‘Do not interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake’ strategy.

    If their backs were still as arched as they were last time and every time a Western country blinked it was a severe insult to China, there would be less of a pivot.

    Trump is doing what he was paid to do. Destroy Americas global reputation. Remove the US as a global moral and financial leader. Pit Americans against each other. Destroy NATO. None of these things will be undone by successive administrations. China, and eventually Russia, will benefit the most from Americas puzzling suicide.

    China is far from perfect, but safe to say they aren’t run by escaped insane asylum inmates and actually embrace the future instead of clinging onto some idealized past.

  6. Trump basically hand delivering loads of honey pots to Winnie himself 😅😆

  7. Trying to oppose China would involve strengthening the relations with the allies in the Pacific, but Trump just said to South Korea that they are on their own. Likely because he didn’t like how the negotiations about his tariffs went.

    Trump does everything to weaken the US.

  8. China is an authoritarian state that represses dissent and wants to reshape the global order in its favor, including threatening violence. That’s not new.

    You have to be spectacular failure to make these people look like the more stable, predictable option.

  9. I mean that’s what orange turd wanted, right? West hemisphere for US, East for China.

    All going according to the MAGA plan. The plan which will make US obsolete as China will absorb India, Europe, Africa and Australia
