China Moving Ahead of USA as World Power Under Pres. Donald

[Camp]

In space, on the seas, and in the air, China is working towards becoming a greater superpower than the USA under an inexperienced and self-obsessed President who is more concerned with his own scandals busy making personal enemy lists than US security. Red flags are going up from US Intelligence agencies but those agencies are now fighting a two-front war. One against our enemies and one against our President.

Misleading thread title.

Uh, Obama basically shut down NASA.
his economy sucked (cant get 3% growth every again according to him and his friends)
he attacked countries, but wouldn't try to win (Trump crushed ISIS in months, Obama never tried to crush ISIS)
Trump is getting better trade deals with partners
and he is ramping up the Space Program and including a Space Force (Russia is already militarizing space, so DJT is going ahead of them now)

all this while China's economy is slowing and showing major issues.

the premise of your OP is very flawed and not close to reality.

I wonder why the left loves to rock Trump's boat so much. Don't you remember you are on the same boat too? Or you want that boat to sink so much that you don't even mind to sink with that boat all together?

You're just on a rampage this morning. Bad night last night?

And without some links or proof, your post is meaningless.

Under President Trump? Yo, knumb knut, China as a world power has been on the rise for decades, the US as a world power has been waning for a couple of decades. The tiny cracks in our seams are only just beginning to show, the real growth of china is just beginning to show. Eventually we go the way of all past world powers and I suspect China will be the next big boy on the world block.

Can you give me an example of an actual better trade deal that Trump has gotten us?

China, regardless of small military bridgeheads made on far flung continents, remains a regional power. While Chinese military forces can indeed project power regionally, on a global conflict scale they remain incapable of participating even to survive. Economically, China has turned to state capitalism for its millennial boom--an economic system dependent on the US and Japan to feed its market coffers and ideologies. Diplomatically speaking, China's inroads into South and Central America, Central and North Africa, will serve it little worth without military force projection capabilities to the other side of the globe. Of course, the narcotics empire the Chinese have their eye on could aid in funding them into a new global capable navy, if we're not careful. Imagine the profits and economic growth possible from serving half a billion addicts. Call them the empire of snow white.

It's funny how the Democrats have become the warmongers, telling us Trump is too "soft" against China and Russia.

Your ignorance of foreign affairs is only exceeded by your zeal to share it with the rest of us. China has been building a blue water fleet for well over a decade, And, China has been working on becoming the world's superpower since shortly after Nixon opened up trade with them.

Trump is saying that we need to quit financing that goal, and quit allowing China to steal our military and industrial secrets.

Interesting...... You might consider stating that up front as the post appears to be a hyper-partisan subjective rant.

China is rapidly updating and upgrading across the board, even Russia is the minor partner in their pseudo-alliance as we continue on our downward slide that began decades ago, not a steep slide yet but a gradual move away from being the major world power. As for how long it will take? Your guess is as good as mine.

And yet Trump was willing to tackle China while Obama kicked the can down the road.
