If you actually cared to compete with China you would join the technology arms race by investing heavily into it instead of banning superior competitors. If state intervention does positively affect technological progress instead of just pure competition, then neoliberal ideology is wrong and should be abandoned.
They had a 2 decade head start on China to have a green industrial revolution but China managed to have their actual industrial revolution and now also a green one in the time we went from electing a president that thinks windmills cause cancer to electing that same guy president again.

Yeah, this is basically putting a weight on your opponent and calling it a win.
China's not paying more for anything and this just means they'll export more stuff to the global south and build those relationships.
This is putting a weigh around your self and calling it a win.
In a swimming race.
Let America drown then.
Guuuud
In 50 years, China's victory will be called "the Luigi victory".
They will defeat the US without even trying.
