Doesn’t matter if Trump says it or not.... that is exactly what MUST happen, sooner or later.
America will one day cancel all debt owed to the Chinese. In an instant, the bulk of our sovereign debt will disappear and the Chinese economy will crash, leading to a revolution there.
The Chinese make enough around the world to take a hit. They don’t hold our entire $18 trillion debt.
They’d squash a “revolution” and go full boat military while closing the South China Sea shipping lanes, etc. You think we’d do anything to stop them?
