I agree with Anon’s comments about China.

The US’s main challenges are internal with a traitorous left, much of it dedicated to tearing down the country and the premises on which it was founded.

A strong US should not fear China.

But we should manage the relationship a lot more adroitly than we are now.

My main concern is the flashpoint of Taiwan where those people deserve the right to determine when and if they join China.

And why should they?

Other than that, much of what we (the US) do helps China including guarding the sealanes via which they get their Middle East oil and providing their biggest single overseas market for Chinese exports.

I have lived in Australia for years and Chinese demand for coal and iron ore underpins the entire economy in Oz.

I think China and the US need each other but the US has to rediscover its sense of cultural strength.
