What do you think they could have done differently and made a real difference? You know very well that China wouldn’t have listened to our complaints. We didn’t “allow” it to happen. They just plow ahead with whatever they want. They are arrogant and ruthless. Do we have anything that we can use against them as a bargaining chip? Money? Tech? Military? Trade? Simply complaining doesn’t get you anywhere. What can the current administration do better? Any ideas?
Since we lack power to stand against China on our own, we could gamble with the US-Japan-India coalition. But their goal doesn’t align with us either.
