I am interested in how much they are going to lose since not only are they unreliable as a trading partner but they don’t have much avenue to innovation, the money will lose the world reserve currency status due to the dollar being printer endlessly to keep these corporations alive ( when the corporations will normally being making mo eye if not for trump) and honestly, who wants to live in the USA now that it’s diseased ridden and covered in Poverty. All he is truly showing everyone around the world now is that we can do without the USA and everyone can still function. It’s short term pain for China but long term + crippling blow to the USA standing as a superpower and trustworthy partner. All of this is on Trump

The issue is the likes of Pompeo / Ross / Navarro / Cotton/ Bannon etc don't see it that way. They see this as the last chance for US to regain the upper hand, restore its glory, and to protect/maintain its hegemony whilst preventing China from ever rising to the point of inflection...

It is a grand bet... that they still have enough legacy and vestigial soft-power and hard-power, sanctions sway and military mights, etc to pull this off and contain China by erasure/sanctions and getting enough "partners of choice" and "coalitions of the willing" to subsidize America's War on China in order to ensure US full spectrum dominance in the rest of the 21st century... I don't think its gonna work, but its called a grand bet for a reason and the US has gone all in and have staked their position.

Trump is merely an accelerant... whether such a sped-up catalysts is ultimately net good for net bad for the USA depends on the final outcome of this new "cold war"...

The white supremacist camp probably promised Trump some sort of glorious victory against the Chinese that he'll be remembered for.

Trump doesn't want to look controlled so he kinda semi-fucks up everyone's plan.

US could've done a lot in the last 4 years to hurt China, but so far it looks like domestic socialist and anti-market policies probably hurt China more than Trump.

All these moves are made at the complete ignorance of the poor people in the country (at least 50million and going up) that are about to be kicked out on the street without any income whatsoever. If trump had continued to give 600 dollars per week for the duration of the virus while limited the amount going to corporations, maybe they might have some minor standing but given that they have reduced the stimulus to 300 per week (+100 depending on state) well it is a matter of time before the population goes to take there grievances on the one that is withholding stimulus (government/Trump). Hence this Cold War could end the moment it even tried to start. They have no soft power in Africa and South America given the results of there actions there and they are losing more and more of that soft power in europe they more they tried to force Europe around while tariffing them like mad anyway. It will soon reach a point where it will be in the best interest to sanction the USA while they are deep in a collapse to make them understand they they can’t bully the world to do its bidding just because they have the ‘democracy’ to do so.

India tries to be the new China again and announce $1.4 trillion dollar infrastructure plan to lift its economy. Never have I heard about a stimulus plan for 45% of a countries GDP. India's credit rating is BB, which may make funding such a stimulus package challenging.

Kind of reminds you of the ineffective "nationwide lockdown" when they gave 5 hour notice and probably caused more COVID cases than they prevented. I am sure Indian media will spin their response as a success since they tried to one-up what china did in Wuhan.

Hi j17wang,

Wish them luck if they will find any investor willing to invest, surely if there is one they will be charging in premium. Their fragile nationalist ego is self inflicting , the only country who had the money and technology is China and they make an enemy out of it.

They have got to stop with the lying since it isn’t going to help there future much. Considering how they love to talk about there skills in planning and considering in reality how badly they have failed, I am under the impression that they are trying to off most of there poor

If you marry the brutal heartlessness of the caste system with the high handed arrogance of the colonial British, and mix in a generous measure of incompetence and nepotism and you have the Indian political Ruling classes.

They need to keep lying because that is just about the only thing keeping them in power and alive. They need to keep bashing and blaming China because they need a target for their people to vent the needless suffering, appalling poverty and sheer hopelessness their incompetence and indifference is causing them to endure every day. It is with good reason almost no Indian expats choose to move back after ‘making it’ in the west. And that’s the privileged higher classes.

Without the support and legitimacy lent to them by the western media, they would be Lynched by the mobs. As such, even thought Indian doesn’t have foreign military bases, it cannot be considered a truly free and independent nation any more.

The moment an Indian leader tries to have a meaningful re-approachment with China is the moment the western MSM, along with Indian collaborators at home, colour revolution them out of power with fake charges of them being Chinese agents or some similar BS.

Best of luck to them. The Indian government is the champion of announcement. But bottom placed in implementation and achievement.

Here are the list of some of their biggest disappointments:
1) Superpower India 2012
2) Superpower India 2020
3) Make In India (2014-present)
4) Arjun Tank program
5) Construction of INS Vikrant (2009-now). Supposed to be the first aircraft carrier built in Asia since WWII.
6) HAL Tejas program
7) 'Biggest Covid-19 lockdown in the world'. India now has the worst Covid-19 outbreak in Asia.
