Donald Trump is making China great again | Steven Greenhouse

Under Trump's Leadership, China Emerge Victorious

The US President's "America First" agenda has been touted as the key to making America great again. However, a recent survey of 26,000 people in 21 countries reveals that it is actually China that has benefited most from Mr. Trump's presidency.

One notable example is the weakening of the US competitive position vis-Γ -vis China in scientific research. The Trump administration's crusade against this field has resulted in significant losses for the US. Furthermore, the trade war with China, which was meant to weaken Beijing's economy, ultimately led to China emerging victorious. The Chinese government successfully forced Mr. Trump to back down, securing a significant advantage over its rival.

The impact of these policies can be seen in several key areas, including electric cars, wind turbines, and batteries. China has made significant strides in these industries, while the US has struggled to keep pace. This is due in large part to Mr. Trump's refusal to impose stricter regulations on Chinese companies, which allowed Beijing to maintain its competitive edge.

The president's actions have also led to a weakening of the western alliance. His non-stop trade war with European allies, combined with his threats against Greenland and insults towards other nations, has made it harder for the US to work collaboratively with its friends.

A recent survey found that more people in 23 countries now view China as the world's top economic power than the US. This shift in perception is significant, as it indicates a growing disillusionment with the US leadership under Mr. Trump.

Canada, long considered one of the US's closest allies, has taken steps to strengthen its ties with China. The Canadian government has forged new strategic partnerships with Beijing, which will help the country "adapt to new global realities" – namely, Mr. Trump's hostility.

Other traditional US allies are also re-evaluating their relationships with the US. South Korea and Britain have both strengthened their ties with China in recent months, as they seek to maintain a balance of power in a rapidly changing world.

In contrast, the US has taken steps that are likely to benefit China. The Trump administration's decision to allow the sale of advanced AI chips to China has been widely criticized by national security experts and lawmakers. This move is seen as a major betrayal of the US's technological edge over Beijing.

The president's actions have also had significant economic consequences. Despite the trade war, China's worldwide trade surplus soared by 20% in 2020, reaching a record $1.2 trillion. Meanwhile, the US has struggled to maintain its competitive position in key industries.

In conclusion, it is clear that Mr. Trump's policies have ultimately made China great again. His refusal to take a strong stance against Beijing has allowed China to emerge victorious in trade and technological competition. As the US loses respect around the world under his leadership, it becomes increasingly unlikely that he will reverse this trend anytime soon.

The path forward for the US would involve making amends with its allies, reversing the damage caused by Mr. Trump's actions, and championing democracy over authoritarianism. However, given the president's track record and priorities, it seems inevitable that China will continue to benefit from his leadership.
 
πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ I gotta say, this whole "China emerging victorious" thing is just a fact, right? πŸ˜‚ Trump's policies have been all about "America First," but what's really happened is China has been getting stronger and more connected while the US has been stumbling around. 🌎 The trade war was meant to hurt China, but instead it made Beijing an even bigger player in global markets. And don't even get me started on AI chips - come on, Trump administration, did you guys not see this one coming? πŸ˜‚
 
πŸ€” i gotta say, trumps "america 1st" agenda has been a total fail. china is literally crushing us in science research & trade πŸš€πŸ’Έ meanwhile, the rest of europe & canada are getting all cozy w/ china 😎 it's like we're just sitting back & watching our rival country get stronger while we decline. i'm not surprised tho, trump's always been about making america great 4 himself rite? πŸ’β€β™‚οΈ anywayz, i think we need to re-evaluate our alliances & priorities if we wanna stay relevant in the global stage πŸŒŽπŸ‘Š
 
πŸ€” I'm not surprised to see China coming out on top under Trump's presidency... I mean, think about it πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. The guy's all about "America First" but what about the rest of the world? It's like he's trying to isolate us or something πŸ”’. And don't even get me started on his trade war with China 🚫. That was a total disaster waiting to happen. I mean, how can you expect to compete with someone when you're just going to let them walk all over you? πŸ˜‚ It's like he thinks the rest of us are all just going to sit back and watch while China takes over the world 🌎. Not on my watch, though... I'll believe it when I see it πŸ™„.
 
I'm not surprised to see the US getting left behind in the tech game πŸ€–... China's been quietly chomping away on research and development while the US has been all about tariffs and trade wars. It's like they're playing a long game, waiting for the other guy to make a move so they can swoop in and steal the spotlight πŸ’₯

And don't even get me started on the AI chips situation... selling advanced tech to our biggest rival? Are you kidding me?! πŸ™„ It's like we're handing China the keys to our future. I guess that's what happens when you're too busy making enemies instead of making friends.

It's not all doom and gloom for the US, though... we can't just sit around and watch China become the new economic powerhouse πŸ’Έ. We need to take a step back, re-evaluate our priorities, and figure out how to get back in the game. But it's going to be tough if we're not willing to put in the work πŸ‹οΈβ€β™‚οΈ
 
I gotta say, I'm not surprised by this news at all πŸ€”. Trump's whole "America First" thing was always gonna be a tough sell to the rest of the world. And let's be real, China is just too good at playing the game right now 😏. I mean, they're basically dominating in tech and trade, and it's not like they're getting any younger or less clever.

But what really gets me is how Trump has alienated his own allies πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. South Korea, Britain, Canada - all of them are starting to look around and see who else can offer them more support and partnership. It's like he's playing some kinda weird game where the US is always on the losing side.

I don't know if anyone really knows what's gonna happen next 🀞. But one thing's for sure, Trump's leadership style is not exactly inspiring confidence around the world 😴. Maybe it's time for him to take a step back and think about what he's actually trying to achieve? Just a thought πŸ’­.
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around this whole thing 🀯. I mean, back in my day, we thought Trump was all about shaking things up and putting America first, but it turns out he's actually helped China become the top dog instead! 😱 It's wild how that trade war with China ended up being a total disaster for the US. And now Canada is practically best buddies with Beijing? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ I'm not sure what's more shocking – the fact that Trump allowed those AI chips to be sold to China or that our allies are just so done with him πŸ˜’. The whole thing feels like a classic case of "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade"... except in this case, it looks like we're getting a nice big glass of bitter tea β˜•οΈ.
 
lolol china is probly gona take ovr the world lol trump is just a joke 🀣 he thinks america is still the top dog but newsflash buddy china has been sneakin round n makin moves while u wuz busy tweetin πŸ˜‚ those ai chips 2 china tho, what r u gonna do now πŸ€–
 
trump's america first agenda has been a total disaster πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. china is now the real economic powerhouse and the us is struggling to keep up. i mean, who benefits from a trade war? not the usa, that's for sure πŸ˜‚. canada and other allies are starting to distance themselves from trump's toxic behavior, while south korea and britain are getting closer to china - it's like trump's trying to tear apart the western alliance 🀝.

and let's not forget about the AI chips thing... what a betrayal πŸ™„. how can you just hand over advanced tech to your biggest rival? it's crazy talk πŸ˜‚. trump needs to get his act together and start thinking about america's interests, not china's πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. but until then, china is going to keep on rising and the usa will keep on struggling πŸ‘Ž
