    Biden has said he wants to win this era of competition with China but not to launch a trade war, and U.S. officials have looked to engage Beijing on limited areas of cooperation, including climate change.

    US government agents can say literally whatever the fuck they want even if it is the exact opposite of reality.

    “The thing about this Biden initiative is that it is election driven,” said Wang. “It is different to what Trump did, as he had already been president for one year and so was pursuing a trade war, rather than election.”

    It feels kind of bad to know that the average liberal is such a seething sinophobe that this might actually work and override any concerns they have about cost of living.
