China is a bad faith actor but I guarantee the world is rooting for Xi Jinping.

He is going to eviscerate Trump on the world stage. The Chinese are FAR more sophisticated than Trump and they’ll thing 3 steps ahead.

will be lauded by most of the rest of the world. Trusk have single-handedly made the US a place hated by most of the world, except some autocratic regimes, and maybe some fundamentally conservative democracies like India. Combine the blustering, ridiculous tariff schedules with the politicization of independent regulatory agencies like the FTC and SEC AND the fact the US government is now wantonly disappearing people off the streets and shipping them to concentration camps without any semblance of due process, AND the fact that the US government is making annexation overtures against sovereign countries AND the fact that they're supporting Russia over Ukraine?

The US suddenly looks like a horrible actor on the world stage. The MAGA's have NO IDEA how hard the rest of the world could fuck this country 10 ways to Sunday if they collectively decide its in their interest. Decades of worldwide good will based on the US being good guys, and generous, that actually IS a huge the source of this country's wealth and power ... is RAPIDLY evaporating into thin air because of the evil motives of the pathological narcissist and criminal the MAGAt's saddled us all with.
