Trump has said he wants people to think he and the US are crazy because he likes how other countries don’t know what he’ll do. I like China isn’t wasting time retaliating but it’s not enough. China is not doing equivalent retaliation and Trump and the Republicans see that China can’t do more. The West is trying to find alternatives from China on rare earths. Why not now completely stop selling them to them. Not doing that only allows to make the transition smoothly. Let it hurt the most now.
Think it is alright comrade.
The CCP just likes the way things are going.
China 2025 more or less has been achieved.
There is a $1 trillion dollar trade surplus (but we only talk about Trump tariffs ... and nobody really talks about that ... Chinese disinformation is the best).
China will beat America in returning samples from Mars as long as the spaceship does not blow up.
Best thing of all, no stupid wars!
Just my opinion, that $1 trillion dollar trade surplus will persist for a few years at least.
If they are not buying stuff from China, then where are they going to buy it from? And the global south, who China does most of its trade, continues to grow.
Maybe a lot of global south countries do not really like a big deficit in trade with China, but if China provides quality goods at a low price, then they will go all for it.
The only exception to that would be India.
