    Ah yes, China promoted Trump, because they love losing money on trade, they appreciate getting their oil supplies from Venezuela and the Gulf fucked, they also famously appreciate losing hard earned influence in Panama and across South America. Only Americans can be so self-absorbed as to look for someone else to blame for the monumental fuckups of the last 10 years while fucking the rest of us. And you’re not even fucking done yet.

    Kindly take off, eh

      Lol, k. Emotional dude is so emotional it’s manipulating his thoughts into being disingenuous.

      Nothing ever bad has happened under those circumstances.

          I’m not opposed to you guys do what you do, but first, the last 10 is just wrong. Second, you elected reps to sign trade agreements.

          If it wasn’t in your interest, you fucked up. But my point being, making an international agreement in under 2 years is up there with selling you out. Look up how long real financial trade agreements take to get agreed on.

          Welcome to the club.

      In Trump’s first term he attempted to dismantle NATO, something China has always openly opposed an often targets in its psyops as “western imperialism”. In his second term he tariffed almost every nation on earth which resulted in China filling gaps. This isn’t even up for debate, though, look for yourself:

      And then:

      TikTok, which currently operates out of Beijing, now, in the past, and forever, voluntarily shut itself down and then turned itself back on in order to endorse Trump. Biden had already announced he had no plans to enforce any such ban.

      You’re free to debate whether China’s actions were beneficial for them, but it’s pretty fucking clear China took the actions.
