What we see here is a “shot across the bow,” we are in a Cold War now with China.
America has been rotting, and being disassembled, at a steadily increasing rate. I never believed that shipping jobs/manufacturing overseas wouldn’t kill us in the long run. Same thing for closing mines and restricting energy search/production. There are many other sectors where we have set ourselves up for failure.
All together, it’ll be a miracle if we survive as a single nation.
