Easy; the American people will. They'll just print more money.
Until that money becomes worthless via inflation?

Yep; and they don't care. Consequences are for the lower classes to deal with.Until that money becomes worthless via inflation?

Not quite, while Biden himself has corrupt dealings with China, the MIC is clear that they aren’t fond of them. Biden would be ignored, like they ignored trump when he wanted out of Syria. Take a look at how while the bureaucrats ignore trump normally but actions against China have been carried out. And even Congress has been pretty unified there,If Biden becomes president though, the Democrats will likely do everything they can to prop up China for as long as possible.

Nah, they don’t really care about that. If anything this has been great since it removed tons of opposition to the security state. There are two factors I think. 1. The Cold War was great for them, more and more power and prestige, they want that back, Russia is a joke, but China works for a threat. 2. They don’t want to share power.Do you think they might be angry about Covid? Because it has fucked their precious global market pretty badly, and given that it's practically all China's fault, that surely must antagonise any preexisting hostilities.
2. They don’t want to share power.
They should know from the belt and road idea.Took them fucking long enough to figure out what the true nature of the Chinese beast is. China was never going to be a part of their order in the long run, and would inevitably seek to dominate them.
Again they wanted an enemy. You can’t convince people to give up freedom without a threat, there is a reason the CIA were the last people to accept the Soviet Union was collapsing.Took them fucking long enough to figure out what the true nature of the Chinese beast is.

No, the super-wealthy do not have giant money bins of cash to swim in. They keep a majority their assets in things that are immune to inflation, like stocks and real estate holdings. Poor people tend to actually have a much larger percentage of their total wealth tied up in cash than rich people do and are hurt more by inflation.But their money is their power, and inflation makes much of that power null and void. Not to mention they can't use the equivalent of Weimar Marks to prop China up. Indeed, if they did this, they'd only be prolonging the inevitable and make everything worse for everyone, themselves included.
Then again, as I've said a few times, Globalists are not the brightest of people.
Ehh, it's one thing to lie about how many troops are still in an area when the number is relatively small and the place is far away and can thus be relatively easily hidden and another to manage to hide not taking part in an entire trade war. It's a matter of scale and location. Also different branches of government involved.Not quite, while Biden himself has corrupt dealings with China, the MIC is clear that they aren’t fond of them.

Again, it is more a matter of them not caring whether he knows. What is he going to do, claim the army is ignoring him. That wouldn’t end well. And the trade war wasn’t the factor I was referring to, the MIC would be more do things like send ships to the South China Sea, and more straight forward saber rattling. They want an enemy, the trade war could cripple them too quickly so they don’t really care.Ehh, it's one thing to lie about how many troops are still in an area when the number is relatively small and the place is far away and can thus be relatively easily hidden and another to manage to hide not taking part in an entire trade war.

That's a feature not a bug prop up China whole simultaneously removing China's only competitor. If the US falls it wont matter if they have issues or even collapse. Because no one besides America can stand against China they're simply to big. This isnt nationalism or pride but reality if the US falls. There isn't a power on Earth who can stand against them it's really that simple.Until that money becomes worthless via inflation?

Fair enoughIf Russia, Japan, and the Oceania nations allied against China, they'd be pretty screwed.
India hopping on board to add raw manpower to the anti-China alliance would just be gravy.
