They are not our largest trade partner.
Both of the last two administrations were driving pretty hard to distance from PRC. Given that, animosity from normal folk or lack thereof seems kind of vague/irrelevant?
- PittleyDunkin 2y agoSorry I was thrown by calling it good politics. I guess you could call it that ignoring the people and interests the administration allegedly represents but that doesn't make much sense. Unless you consider american enterprise to be the primary clients of the government, which I suppose there's a good argument for. Regardless, china is our third largest trade partner and severing that connection would still absolutely destroy our economy and quality of life.
- twelve40 2y ago> severing that connection would still absolutely destroy our economy and quality of life Probably, who knows. I'm just making an observation. Maybe after being useful to help win the Cold War they are now considered by the powers that be more of an annoyance or a competitive threat? Your guess as to why this is the policy is as good as mine.
