@axtremus said in Beijing’s Bigger Honey Trap:
Sure, shutdown a few ‘cultural exchange’ programs.
Then what?
Are you going to shut down Disney’s distribution into China or ban Apple’s manufacturing imports from China?
Even the NBA censors itself to appease China.The Transpacific Partnership Program was the one good thing that unites nations around the Pacific rim to counterbalance China. The Obama administration had the good sense to support the TPP, but stupid Trump had to blow it up, pissed off a bunch of allies, and abdicated American leaderships from strategic international institutions in his four years in office.
TPP was no counterbalance to China whatsoever. All it did was send American jobs to other countries. It was described as "the final blow to manufacturing in America".
