It just goes to show how incompetent our elected officials are. They do nothing for the U.S., while only worrying about lining their own pockets. In the meantime, China is, and always has been, playing the long game. Whereas the U.S. is more than happy to spend billions of dollars propping up the economies of other countries.
They aren’t incompetent, they are actually very good at what they are doing. The mistake is in our assumption that they are trying to make things better. If they were merely incompetent, by the law of averages they would make mistakes, now and then, in our favor. That never happens. Check your premises!!
