![]() ![]() General Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has said that “China probably poses the greatest threat to our nation by about 2025.” * The summary of America’s 2018 National Defense Strategy claims that China and Russia are “revisionist powers” seeking to “shape a world consistent with their authoritarian model-gaining veto authority over other nations’ economic, diplomatic, and security decisions.” * Christopher Wray, the FBI director, has said, “One of the things we’re trying to do is view the China threat as not just a whole-of-government threat, but a whole-of-society threat… and I think it’s going to take a whole-of-society response by us.” * Even George Soros, who spent millions trying to prevent Trump from being elected, has praised Trump on China. Indeed, he has received strong bipartisan support for it, and a strong consensus is developing in the American body politic that China represents a threat to America. The president has divided America on all his policies, except one: his trade and technological war against China. Although President Donald Trump launched the first round in 2018, it will outlast his administration. The geopolitical contest that has broken out between America and China will continue for the next decade or two. ![]()
