  2. China over here trying to be the new global leader

    And it’s working. Good job trumpers you really made America great 

  5. I think we’re at a critical junction where the world has to start seriously decoupling its future from the idea of a single global superpower calling the shots. The US is clearly past its peak as the unchallenged leader-it still has immense influence, but it’s increasingly erratic, polarized, and inward-looking. But the answer isn’t to swing into the orbit of China, Russia, or any other authoritarian regime just because they’re rising. Trading one flawed hegemon for another, especially one that rejects democratic values, is a dead end.

    Instead, this should be the moment for stronger multilateral leadership. Democracies; especially in the EU, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and even emerging players like India and Brazil-need to step up, coordinate, and build new systems that don’t depend on one country to dominate. Things like digital infrastructure, trade rules, human rights standards, and even military alliances need to be more distributed, more democratic, and more resistant to authoritarian influence.

    It won’t be clean or easy, but clinging to a fading American empire or running into China’s arms out of fear are both short-sighted. There’s a third path here: mature, networked global cooperation among nations that value openness and rule of law.

  6. And according to the mango moron China has no card which makes sense as they’re playing Mahjong while the mm is playing tiddlywinks! Go mango!

  9. Who would’ve thunk that China would end up as the good guy?
    With every other country supporting them.
    That man is a fucking moron.

  10. How sad it is when there’s a position of China’s that I agree with and support.

  12. Nothing will happen. China don’t have any option rather than fighting with USA. Other countries have that option.

  13. How about we stand firm against all bullies (US, China, Russia, NK, etc.)?

  14. Who could ever have seen this coming..really the US is the baddy and China the goody stepping up for the international…o never mind. Too bonkers for me.

  15. I can’t tell if my medication isn’t working or it’s the world around me

  16. He’s already started ‘flapping’, pretending China is calling him.

  17. Forget about “de-risking” from China, we need to “de-risk” from the US.

    China, until very recently, exported rare earth products to the US. Over 90% of the world’s rare earth refining capacity is in China– did China use it to threaten anyone? The US banned chip exports to China, and the chips used rare earths refined in China; all of the US’ missiles use rare earths refined in China, and the missiles are aimed at China.

    Who is the real “risk”? The country that wants to trade with us, or the country that just put blanket tariffs on all of us?

  18. It’s like bullies from two different high schools are trying to get every other kid to fight their battles.

  21. I guess the true Art Of The Deal were the nations united along the way.

  22. Nice one MAGA – you literally found someone who’s a worse than the party that placed tanks right in front of people in the square

  25. Just like you, China, you are a bully to your neighbouring countries. Two-face 💩

  26. China acting like they arent ALSO bullies lmfaoo it’s just that no one expected the US to become like this, so yeah CCP may benefit.

  27. I’ve seen China bully Australia first hand with trade! Not keen at all about Trump but this does seem a little like the pot calling the kettle to me.

  28. The problem is Trump has proven himself to have absolutely no fucking spine whatsoever so why would China back down even if we ignore all other circumstances. Thus far Trump has only bounced around from dumb decision to dumb decision and then walking back when he got pushback.

    This man cannot deal with China, and while all of this is pretty funny at first how China runs loops around Trump on the other hand I’d be very concerned if I was Taiwanese.

  29. Lol China calling other people bullies for using tariffs, that’s rich, they had 200% tariffs on Australia for years because we asked for an inquiry about covid and they wanted to punish us for asking such bad questions as “what happened with how covid started”. They got their way, we stopped asking questions and they removed our tariffs. Now they’re pretending like it never happened and trying to get everyone on their side, like theyre not the same but 10x worse than the USA

  30. They should start accepting asylum from Americans to really rub it in
