        I know it’s just awful. If it was a tv show it would be seen as unrealistic but its actually happening.

      My guess is to rile up his base into supporting his shenanigans while he makes himself forever-godking.

      He won’t actually fight China, or if he does he won’t do it seriously. Trump constantly swoons over Xi Jinping and works closely with Vladimir Putin which China has close ties with like threads in a tapestry. I simply do not believe Trump’s words.
