Communist China Smugly Claims US Influence Declining in Asia

The Chinese Communist Party is thrilled to allege that the U.S. under the Biden-Harris administration is losing its global diplomatic influence, even as China’s influence increases.

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have very obviously weakened America on the world stage, and it’s easy to see from the number of devastating wars that broke out under their watch after years of Trump-enforced global peace that dictators and terrorists thoroughly recognize that weakness. Furthermore, even as countries continue to look to the genocidal and ruthlessly self-serving Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for investment, U.S. currency and dominance are declining.

It is true that CCP state media will always exaggerate CCP success and bash the U.S. It is equally true that Chinese media has become noticeably more confident and disdainful in asserting U.S. decline and Chinese rising power since Joe Biden, recipient of laundered Chinese cash, came to office. In a new Oct. 12 article on the ASEAN Summit, CCP state propaganda outlet Global Times was bursting with smug confidence, and not without reason.

Never forget the CCP has infiltrated almost every country, including the U.S. (even potentially up to the White House). And America’s economy is now all-too-heavily dependent on China.

Two points jumped out at me from the Global Times article. Firstly, U.S. media is now so Communist and propagandistic that the CCP merely paraphrases from and cites U.S. media for its anti-U.S. talking points. Secondly, the CCP seems very sure it is moving closer to its avowed goal of controlling the world:

[At the ASEAN Summit,] what was revealed was not US’ diplomatic advantage, but rather its increasingly visible diplomatic predicament.

On Friday, Bloomberg commented that the summit in Laos from Wednesday to Friday gave the US government an opportunity to showcase the relationships it has cultivated across Asia since renewing a diplomatic push three years ago. Instead, China appeared to have seized the moment.

The Bloomberg article mentioned even as the US and its allies criticized Beijing for its actions in the East and South China Seas, China reached a series of deals with regional countries… projects under the Belt and Road Initiative still hold significant appeal in ASEAN[.]

The Belt and Road Initiative involves CCP investment in other nations as an opening for CCP migration to and control of those nations.

Last year, countries were clamoring to join the BRICS alliance dominated by U.S. enemies China and Russia, with six new members admitted, including terror-sponsoring Iran (whose terror proxies soon after launched bloody war on Israel). BRICS has made “de-dollarization,” or a move away from the U.S. dollar as world reserve currency, a major priority. That’s a trend that continues to gain steam.

Dems’ Open Hatred of Free Speech Shows They Are Communists

Obviously, it is not time to admit defeat yet; if Donald Trump comes back to the White House, the U.S. could restore its global influence and undermine the CCP. But it is vitally necessary for the U.S. to have new leadership. Otherwise, we could find ourselves watching the terrible situation of a CCP-dominated world unfold.
