It astounds me how many on this board are still seemingly at war with the peaceful (for 50 years) country we fought to defend itself from...

Are 100% all for building up China, for the last thirty years.

Only one of those two, are a threat to America.

The one we are rapidly building up, in every single way.

Americans haven’t built up China. America’s elites have built up China. America needs to remove its elites.
