They wont have to Obama is doing it for them
The current dictators of China are fairly benign. There is no such guarantee the next cadre will be the same.
Don’t know if they can, but I’m sure they plan to try.
I’m game, let’s all help them by not buying Chinese products whenever possible.
Can China lead the global economy?
In word: NO!
They’ve de-industrialized America so far, with the help of the sell out your country for a buck crowd, so it’s probably going to happen.

If it means we can become some backwater republic that is forgotten about amongst the world with fewer immigrants, asylum seekers, and interlopers, there might be merit to this.
Pretty much anyone can. zero and the Senate are pushing us to irrelevancy so fast our heads are swimming!!
Chinese position today is a result of hard work of US administrations since 1970s.
US government still works for Chinese interests.
In fact both nations depends on each other. China is compensating reducing factual wealth of US customers delivering substandard products to the market at rather low price for an illusion of galore, US delivers fiat money to China in exchange.
Chinese population is vast and middle class in growing. It is not easy but they are potentially able to overcome loosing America as a client.
I’m not sure if US ruling class and Walmart people are able to lose China on their part.
I hope not and that any attempts fail. It would represent a net loss of freedom instead of a net gain. Despotic countries like China would gain undeserved legitimacy with nobody to rightfully repel them.
Then again, it doesn't help that some would rather help develop the PRC for their 30 pieces of silver. While it is their choice to do so, they act without knowing the full consequences of their actions.

No thanks, but I'll pass on throwing away the last 60+ years of the US generally promoting freedom across the world. Stepping out like that would leave a vacuum - one that would likely be filled by someone without the same desire to promote freedom.
