We were planning to exclude *China* in a massive Pacific trade deal. Now they've done it to us. Chinese century, here we come. I hope they're kinder to us than they are to the Uighurs. news.yahoo.com/huge-asian-tra…
This is very big news. I'm of several minds about it. That it puts a punctuation point on the end of the American century makes me sad, as an American. That China will now dominate the Pacific--not necessarily as a benevolent hegemon--makes me uneasy for the Pacific.
But it will also make the region prosperous, and help a great deal to mitigate the economic catastrophe of the pandemic. So I'm glad for everyone who will prosper.
It won't include the United States, however.
This is what America First really looks like. America last.
