Finally, someone writes what I have been saying for decades. China is now on the edge of disaster. And Trump has their number, but Trump wants as little pain for the USA as possible in our transition away from China.
Q: What does a billion+ hungry and pissed off people look like?
A: China
All communist countries fail and they fail bigly. Communists murder by the tens of thousands millions to stay in power and still they will fail. They always fail and they always lie, always and right up to the end.
I have also been to China many times and seen the same ghost cities. I have been on four lane concrete super highways where a three hour trip resulted in seeing one car – the one I was in. On the return I did see one other car. Six hours, leaving from Canton (Guangzhou), and two cars total. Second trip on the same highway IIRC we saw two vehicles, a car and a truck.
When I went for the first ride in my friends new Buick out of Shanghai we saw overpasses with no highways on either side. Several. Ten years later there were still no highways. Don’t know what is there now as I have not been since end of 2019 and will never go back.

The ChiComs hid it all, but the 2008-9 Financial Crisis hit them much harder than we imagine. Xi seized power soon afterwards and he has no intention of going back to the Deng to Zemin era of modest reforms. He’s an outright Maoist.
He’s been funneling what little they have into the military and global subterfuge as well.
The Purges of the WuFlu couldn’t have been good for them either. Although I left HK before then and don’t have a lot of knowledge on what that was all about in reality. At least in China mainland.
In HK or served as a screen for their crackdown on the rebellious University students, who were jailed, killed or fled since and the Opposition Pro Democracy elements in HK Politics. Basically the Pro Democracy Party is now disbanded.
