Of course they do. The Covid virus attack has worked out better than their wildest dreams. On top of that, they got the President they wanted, China Joe. 2020 was a banner year for the CCP.
Yep....I said way back when the virus was first recognized that it may have been a deliberate biological attack by the very clever chinese....the attack was organized in a manner that duped Western Governments or even if not....done in a manner which would not provoke retaliation....though Trump consistently said they would be punished..
I think though he meant in economic terms.
The simple truth is that even if we knew it was done intentionally....no one wants war with China....that would be insane...as it would mean a nuclear exchange...or at least very likely one would occur...do not forget China is more prepared for nuclear war than any other nation .....not even to mention they have little value for human life and their leadership has said they have too many people anyhow.
The Chinese Communist leaders are incredibly more ruthless than most Westerners realize and they have always been that way....Mao without doubt the most ruthless leader the world has ever known....yet most are completely ignorant regarding how incredibly ruthless he was.
Thus they are not susceptible to nuclear blackmail but we are....would any American President sacrifice Los Angeles for taiwan....as a Chinese General famously said.
Trump I do think would have inflicted considerable economic damage on them to the extent that they would not likely ever do something like that again.
Anyhow......which ever way you slice it....America is facing very dark days and we probably have the worst President in history to deal with what is coming down the pike.....certainly in modern times....even jimmah carter looks strong comparable to the contemptible biden.
Unfortunately for America biden will be President and China will walk all over him....even if they do not have the ability to blackmail him(many think they do have enough on biden and son to blackmail him) they will walk all over the weak and addled biden....though biden is so out of it....China might have a difficult time predicting wih much accuracy what the old fool might do. Thus in a sense he is a wild card.
