With the US making erratic and dumb decisions consistently, I wouldn't be surprised if China steps in and makes a deal. With Russia, with Iran/Israel, with India/Pakistan. China is just way better at realpolitik than Trump's America is. Their global soft power is better than ours also. They do business, they build infrastructure. The US beats its chest and embarrasses itself. China is already more favorable among the Global South as it is, and that's even after the Covid virus lab disaster. Imagine leaking a virus and causing a deadly global pandemic and STILL winning the PR game.
America, you had a good run. |
Yep. Thanks MAGA. |
NASA hollowed out
A Chinese moon base looking down on us. I'll guarantee this. Sputnik, baby! |
Trump really did the bidding well for his masters in China, Russia and Saudi Arabia.
Never was a worse traitor to the USA, even superseding Benedict Arnold. |
If we go into Iran it is Iraq 2.0 and Iraq 1.0 and GWB handed the world to China on a silver platter. Are we going to give them another 20 years? probably |
This was set in stone when we sent our entire manufacturing base and IP over there because companies didn’t want to pay American workers. |
Thank you, Reagan/Bush. |
China is not the horrible enemy of human existence. Culturally it's a difference in traditions and systems. The US was never ever 100% awesome. It's def less so now with Trump of course but if anything, he made clear the probs of Dem even though it's a beautiful political system. Trump was elected by a majority of Americans who largely still support him. Our country has public schools that don't teach much, a healthcare system that is for profit which many cannot use, infrastructure that's broken which aren't funded because of either lack of budgeting or bureaucracy and overall, just a lot of debauchery and selfishness of being lazy, easy, greedy. I really do not think that we were ever all that. China has a lot to learn about human rights but the value of freedom only inspires and is noble if you have the discipline and wisdom of using it correctly. Pretty sure the US has been failing for a number of years in this front as Trump successfully got elected not overnight and not just once!

It's hard for me to hear you We've saleady got Trump. Why would I find China admirable? |
Pretty much. Attacking Iran is largely ceding international control to China. I despise MAGA and US progressives. You spoiled brats have caused this. |
Blame Walmart. Seriously. |
Uh, don’t blame progressives. The felon rigged the election. This is not on us. At all. |
China is in a very strong position. The mayhem and erraticness caused by Trump and the GOP has gifted the world to China. But now that Trump has profoundly weakened American influence around the globe, the upside is that China may be less inclined to invade Taiwan, which would lead to China's isolation, sanctions, etc. Why ruin a good thing with a costly invasion? China's power and influence grows by the day as long as Republicans are in power. |
Americans got Arrogant. Don’t get me wrong, I love this country, but it requires care, seriousness, humility, and attentiveness to keep what we have. 1/3 of of eligible voters don’t vote in presidential elections elections and its even less in state, congressional, and local elections. Putting quite simply, people don’t care or treat elections like it’s inconsequential. Being the most dominant and wealthiest country on the planet is not promised to us, put people act like it is. |
With all that's going in, you aren't a serious person. "Independents" suck |
