WILL CHINA OVERTAKE AMERICA SOON?

Read how China has been at war with us…

Prior to China being admitted to the World Trade Organization (WTO), it simply had blind ambition, as well as big plans (see Michael Pillsbury’s book, “The Hundred-Year Marathon”), but after becoming a member with all of its trade advantages, China’s growth grew very rapidly to the extent that its annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was only  a few trillion dollars less than the United States.

With its large GDP (about $18 trillion/year in 2022), China now has the financial resources to continue building a world-class military, and is in the process of closing the gap in its attempt to surpass the world’s number one superpower, the United States. In October of 2021, China demonstrated its hypersonic missile which is so fast and maneuverable and flies so close to the ground that it can’t be shot down by our current anti-ballistic missile system.  This, of course, means that China now has a first strike capability which is catastrophic for the West when it puts nuclear warheads on its supersonic missiles.

Aside from its large military build-up, China has already surpassed the U. S. in manufacturing and exports to the extent that many countries, including America, are now dependent on China for basic commodities, including numerous medicines.  In addition, it has engaged in many nefarious activities, such as developing covid-19 in its Wuhan Virology lab and not giving a “heads-up” about it to the world when it “escaped”.  Moreover, it has enslaved about a million Uyghurs, an Islamic group that live in northwest China in Xinjiang Province.  Also, it was instrumental in stealing the 2020 Presidential election because President Trump imposed hundreds of billions in tariffs and feared he would thwart China’s ambition of overtaking the U.S. as the world’s superpower.

China’s huge telecommunications company, Huawei, is currently in the process of developing the world’s first  5G (fifth generation) communications network. This is important because other countries will follow the 5G leader, the U.S. or China, and 5G doesn’t simply allow you to download much faster, it will enable autonomous cities and appliances and the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) to spy on everyone.

China’s “Belt and Road Initiative” had about 80 countries participating as of August 2018.  It provides financial assistance for railways, ports, highways, airports, pipelines and information networks.  It is entrapping many countries in unsustainable debt and is promoting China’s interests.  This initiative is not being done from a desire to help other countries, but instead to ingratiate countries to China so they will comply with its wishes.

I believe it’s clear that China is overtaking the United States, and when it does, the U.S.  and the world will be worse off.  What can be done to prevent this?  Many things, but they all have one thing in common: they require someone at the helm, in charge, who recognizes the threat and is tough enough to stand up to China and then do what is necessary for America to successfully compete with it.  I’m talking about re-electing former President Trump, who has already stood up to China with tariffs and other significant actions.  China is frightened of Trump.  They can’t bully him. The U.S. needs him.  See Newt Gingrich’s book, Trump vs. China.  To be fair, Governor DeSantis might also be strong against China, but he’s unproven on the International stage.  Donald Trump is the “Big Dog” but he’s America’s Big Dog and the U.S. needs him.
