#1 Blinken comment blamed for onslaught of noxious Henry Kissenger squirters. Tech oligarchs enraged as well. Search for new Foggy Bottom head likely to begin soon.

#2 Not as long as the US and Europe each are gutting their industrial base and sending the ChiComs $400 billion/year each for the equivalent of cheap Commie plastic dog shit.

#4 The U.S. does not have the luxury of not dealing with China. The "how" policies are important.

#6 Bullshit! You cannot "uphold a rule-based order" with communists. The only rule they respect comes from the barrel of a gun. The only "complexity" in the relationship is corruption. The only sensible way to deal with China is the same way Reagan did with the Soviet Union. If Blinken wasn't corrupt he'd be saying that and if Norah O'Donnell wasn't corrupt she'd call him on it.

#8 "uphold this ruled-based order"

You mean the one that China trashes at every opportunity?
