The trade war and trade deal are side shows to the total geopolitical rivalry. I recommend you read Stealth War by Robert Spalding. Covid19 is crystallizing the problems with US over reliance on China as well as the weaknesses of the US society and it’s economy. It’s like a 9/11 and 2008 financial crisis on steroids combined into one. Time is in China’s side over the next decade. I think the US knows that, so risk of conflicts will be very great until the situation is more stable.
