China has all the cards. When you visit both countries you will understand.
Americans know already. Ishowspeed visited China and he couldn't hold back his excitement. Infact he almost went wild. He couldn't hold it back. He said China is 50years ahead of the US and that's true.

I hate this kind of moment. Donald Trump just why? Now I see reasons why America should not be trusted. I mean like, after everything? Hmm! What a betrayal.
Do you think Trump doesn't have advisers? They have seen the odds. It's not in their favour and interest. They have wasted 350billion and counting while there are lots of things to handle.
They are struggling to remain at the top with China's rapid, unstoppable rise in all rounds and sectors as well increasing influence despite them not having interventionist and hegemony policy at least in present and foreseeable line of actions.

US have increasing number of homeless people and economic challenges, employment issues tax related issues. War can't be the best decision. Not with Putin or Xi. It's senseless.
Zelensky is a big mumu. He should have known he doesn't stand a chance with Russia. Some mumu like him were saying he's winning blah blah blah. Putin is fighting 32 countries simultaneously despite the uncountable sanctions.
Only Russia and China can survive such conditions. Even Trump had to tell him the bitter truth that the war could have ended 2 weeks after it started without US support and Zelensky acknowledged it.
Even the countries that sanctioned Russia are not having the best of times. Their inflation statistics is worse than Russia despite them freezing Russia's funds.

Zelensky was bold and fearless.
But the war got to stop.
Trump was diplomatic and fatherly..
Vance was a complete id.i. ota
There's an endless difference between brazen stupidity and boldness. When a deluded child (Zelensky) confronts an armed soldier (Russia) and challenges the soldier to fight you call it boldness and fearless.

Foreign AffairsRe: China Tariffs Could Drive US Crude Exports Lower In 2025 by Dottore:
One the reasons of declining oil exports to China is that they have developed their EV industry so well that if you buy ICE vehicle you will find it very difficult to get it registered whereas you can register EV same day. The peak monthly consumption of gasoline by Petrol Engine cars was estimated to be about 15 million tons. That's why they invested heavily in in securing production and supply chain of Electric vehicles.

Elon Musk said Chinese electric car makers will find "significant" success outside of China, even as his auto firm, Tesla, faces intense competition from these same companies. "Frankly, I think, if there are not trade barriers established, they will pretty much demolish most other companies in the world," Musk said.

Speaking on the Everything Electric Show podcast, Farley (Ford current CEO) praised the brand-new automaker's electric sedan. "I don't like talking about the competition so much, but I drive a Xiaomi," he said. "We flew one from Shanghai to Chicago, and I've been driving it for six months now, and I don't want to give it up.

He even said that Ford's competitors are not Toyota GM or others but China

You will marvel when you see cars in Chinese roads, your jaw will drop. They commonize features you can only see in Bentley, Rolls Royce, Tesla, Lincoln, Maybach, S Class Mercedes etc and even improve on them in most cases then sell it at peanuts. It's so bad that when you now enter US and Europe streets you'd be seeing cars there as if they are driving junks #fact

All American and European car brands are struggling in China including Tesla. China used to be their biggest market and cash cow. Some western auto brands in China have already died. The surviving ones like BMW, Mercedes, VW, Ford, GM etc keep reducing their prices just to make sales.

The same thing is happening in Mobile Phone market. Apple is struggling to sell iphone 16 in China their biggest market. Huawei despite sanctions came back with phones that shook the market with insane features. Huawei Mate XT alone had almost 6million pre orders before launch despite the price being double of iPhones 16. Huawei Mate XT costs around $2,800, while the iPhone 16 base model costs around $799. Apple even had to further reduce the price of iphone 16 when Huawei released Mate 70 series yet Mate 70 still sells better than iphone 16.

Deepseek came and wiped away almost 1 trillion dollars from US stock exchange in 1 month. My American friend told me hysterically that it's more than enough to start a war.

please search for sales performance of US car brands in china

The bitter fact is that China is on another level altogether and they don't make noise about it. They are in overdrive mode.

Huawei has come up with HIMA - Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance. A lot of Chinese auto manufactures have already signed up for it and many others expected to join the growing train. Brands that have it boldly have HIMA written on the back of the vehicle
.

Under HIMA, Huawei contributes in product planning, design, marketing, user experience, quality control and provides intelligent vehicle software and hardware for the traditional automobile manufacturers. Currently, HIMA only operates in mainland China. It may soon start a different type of tension in the global auto industry.

If there's no trade restrictions and tarrifs by US and Europe then all the car brands you know today will either start merging just like Nissan, Honda and Mitsubishi are currently doing or die completely.
