I'm not as optimistic as you. My biggest concern has always been the ability of US to mobilize its "allies" to self-destruct for US's own interests. You saw it with Huawei bans, with Russia sanctions, with litho ban, now with EV tariffs, etc. A China-US confrontation won't be confined to the two countries - the EU/UK/Japan/Canada/Australia will be strung along, and it's definitely not an easy challenge for China to face.
Too bad for the US most of its allies already prematurely blew themselves up trying and failing to spite the Russians over Ukraine, with a lot of help from their ‘allies’ from across the pond to boot.
The EU is exhausted economically from sanctioning Russia and cutting themselves off from cheap Russian oil and gas and other natural resources.
If the Eurotrash elite idiots still want to do more Bonzi charges for Trump, China can literally take the fight to their doorstep by dialling up its support for Russia in Ukraine.
