As stated here before the following moves:
China counters with a "34% retaliatory tariff". This is a bluff and too strong of a move. They will be forced to the negotiating table within 3 months once the fallout from the US actions take hold.
Trump embodies a shift to "Nobility" virtues (courage, loyalty, hospitality, honor to a select few), etc. These are much different than the Bourgeois virtues the world has come to expect from the US in the last 50 years.
I am ambivalent regarding the absolute value of the above virtues, and merely express that this is a sea-change for international relations, and will be interesting to see how these actions play out given the US recipe for dealing with competitors:
Cooperate, Assist, Tolerate...then suddenly...violently...Compete.
One of the overwhelming strengths of the US is its ability to adapt and change, both on socio-economic and political levels, and the SPEED which it does so.
One wonder how the CCP will attempt to mirror this given very little institutional/cultural memory on how to digest what is coming.
This "all" about China. And this is also why Russian peace is important. Japan to the East, Russia to the North, and Australia to the South.
