    I find it hard to believe they really want it that much. Keeping Trump where he is will slowly do all the damage they need. On a global scale support for the U.S. is degrading, and things like Chinas currency being used for global trade is accelerating. At the rate things are going it is likely best for China to just let things take their current course. The wealth divide growing in the U.S. is going to do a lot of damage in the next 15 years. The conservative choices are just accelerating our downfall or complete need to move to a Universal base income and spread of wealth, if not a complete flop to a socialistic society. (Which will have a lot of backlash and possibly the civil war).

    If another country really thought just one leftist would start a civil war and destroy the U.S., they would just blackmail or pay someone off to do it.

      China, at least lately, haven’t been ones to just sit by and wait patiently. They’ve been actively and aggressively promoting the decline, even backing Trump during the election especially with their TikTok psyop.

        Oh yea that shit is absolutely insane. They are literally sending propaganda to the overseas Chinese Diaspora that promotes trump and demonizes Democrats on Wechat. My parents keep parrotting right-wing talking points. So uncanny.
