    Why would China care?

    Fat Ass is literally shoveling 80 years worth of soft power right into Chinas mouth. That’s worth 1000 tic toks or his stupid tariffs.

    Fucking idiots.

      I work with China. They need our business. One of my suppliers said they are 75% export.

        I don’t think you understand what China is doing. They are using the softpower tactic to get countries to drown in debt to China. They then legally seize everything not nailed down and hollow out these countries walking away with resources and all the money

        THAT is the Belt and Road initiative.

            So then you were probably already buying steel from US steel or Cleveland cliffs. Most automotive ateel in the US is purchased from those two firms

      I’m pretty sure this will involve having another Reich wing asshole running the US tictok so they can increase their propaganda reach. They don’t give a single fuck about Americans power elsewhere, they only care about ruling America.
