    I'm certain they think China poses a real threat to spreading communism, wouldnt make sense from their perspective to allow a country led by a communist party to threaten US global hegemony to a larger and larger degree. I honestly think they're surprised China handled covid so well and they were impacted economically so little. It put them in a much better place than the US and I'm certain this will be weaponized against them.

      Not only did they handle Covid so we'll, but I'm comparison to the US, China is seen as the real global leader to much of the world. Basically anywhere that isn't tethered to the US by a short leash is going to see China as the obvious adult in the room. Even our "allies" see that the US is a clearly decaying empire but are scared to firmly take China's side.
