I wonder whether the calculation is that she has pandered to the far right domestically and pissed off other segments, but that trying to reset with China would piss off her far right supporters while not being enough to placate the left and centrists?

Leland Miller: China might cure cancer - but at what cost? This is one of the people who give "advice" on China's economy. You can't make the sh*t up.
America’s national security will only stop being at risk when the entire world is bowing down and worshipping US flags whilst holding US dollars as offerings to the gods of democracy.
I apologize to Jordan Schneider for all the times I’ve memed him. As for Leland Miller — there are plenty of trees that need planting in the Gobi Desert and the last time I checked they ain’t planing themselves!!!!
Birth numbers for 2025 are in, China had 7.92 million births in 2025.
This cohort with a life expectancy at birth of around 80 years, is enough to support only 633 million total population (assuming same births throughout)
But births are obviously declining, they declined more than 10% compared to 2024. And have halved since 2018.
If China doesn't take measures fast enough, the births would probably half again by 2030, as the rate of decline is actually increasing.
