I am not defending the US, but this guy is straight up drinking the KOOL aid, likely because he has family and businesses he cares about in China and those things can easily be taken away by the state if they wanted to.
There is a propaganda war going on that is for sure. So much exaggerated and negative media about China, all in last few years. This is all from C.I.A. playbook they did the same to the Soviets, Evil empire etc.
What will MAGA do if bodies are in the streets of Omaha and Gary Indiana and Los Angeles? The Chinese have been there with Japanese aggression. They still remember invaders on their lands. Most Americans have no idea behind cousin Tony's PTSD from Iraq.
