it would've been pretty reasonable in 2016-2019 for an asian-american voter to assume trump doesn't actually gaf one way or the other about china aside from using trade deals as leverage for his personal trump trademarks or whatever otoh it would've been very stupid to assume he wouldn't push yellow peril racism as a convenient deflection from his incompetence and indifference to his constituents' lives

to the extent Trump has any geniune beliefs he has always struck me as genuinely convinced that the sneaky Chinese are stealing the economy

I think you can convince Trump anyone is stealing the economy. China just makes more sense here

In the 80's and early 90's there was a ton of yellow panic over Japan, see for example Rising Sun, and that's when a lot of Trumps opinions about reality were formed. You may be thinking that Chinese and Japanese are not the same things, but now you're remembering Trump is a huge racist, so in fact, they are, to him.

What does that even mean? China will send in shock troops as a form of debt collections?

Except dumber, because they're worried about the equivalent of a bank suddenly demanding you repay all of your mortgage at once. And that the mortgage is basically the same as your yearly income.

They think "the US owes money to China" is like you owing your friend $200 and he could at any time turn up at your house and demand you pay him, not like having a fixed-term fixed-rate mortgage with a bank where as long as you make your payments on time they have no recourse, and also if you want to you can wave a magic wand and say brrrrrrrr and suddenly have the money to make your mortgage payment.

For someone who ran as a former military strongman, all that comes to mind when it comes to his run and term is him being stabbed, slipping in the bathroom like Mr Magoo, and looking like a panicked disease carrier. lol

Well it's kind of worse because your friend has the largest military in the world, and also the second-largest military in the world, and I think the third- largest military in the world also? So if you show up at his house it won't go well for you. If the US defaults on T-bills there is no recourse for anyone, basically.
