If China were to bow down to Trump, and give in on his trade demands, China would no long be Trumps goat, or bogey man. They would be best buddies again and a strong partner.
The Anti China stuff would stop from the WH
Well... based on his track record so far, Trump is only tough on China when they don't go along with him. And I understand that... but if you are really worried about China, don't count on anything from Trump if they revise their stance on the trade talks, because then, they would be able to do no wrong
"US Agency Seizes Thousands Of Alabama School Laptops Reportedly Linked To Forced Uighur Labor In China

A U.S. agency has seized more than 4,000 new laptops en route to an Alabama school district because the laptops involved an electronics manufacturer implicated in the forced labor of Uighur Muslims in China, ABC reported.
The U.S. Department of Commerce intercepted the laptops and is holding them in customs because an electronics manufacturer related to the device’s production, Hefei Bitland Information Technology Co. Ltd., is one of 11 companies facing sanctions by the U.S. for suspected use of forced labor in Xinjiang, according to ABC.

Etowah County Schools had ordered the Chromebook computers in June through a reseller called Trinity3 Technology, which helps supply schools with remote learning technology, the school’s superintendent Alan Cosby said according to ABC.
After the district was informed that the laptops were being held by the U.S. agency and would not be delivered until October, Cosby cancelled the order and purchased laptops from another vendor that could make the delivery to the school by September, closer to the school year’s start Aug. 17. The school district has 8,000 students, and 1,600 were registered to start the year with distance learning due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The president and CEO of Trinity3 Technology, Scott Gill, confirmed that a “number of devices were held up that were scheduled for deliveries to schools across the country.”
The district was primarily concerned with the number of laptops that would be available for student use if the district was to switch to entirely remote learning.
“We were depending on that as a resource if we had to go entirely remote learning,” Cosby said. “We’ll be able to start school and do OK, but … time is critical on this. It’s just another unanticipated obstacle,” ABC reported.

I reckon "China could do no wrong" until Trump wanted something else, or needed a scapegoat. China would then revert to pure evil, perhaps within days.
This reminds me of Civ2 diplomacy. Give another civ a gift and they love you. Hit the turn button and they go straight back to hating you.

Hrmpf, Civ VI isn't that much better - I mind my own business, then Greece and Japan declares war against me and all other says that I'm the war monger
With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
I guess Russia is no longer an enemy... China is the new Trump bogie man.
Russia only wants to mess with our elections, and put bounties on American soldiers... but what the hell, Putin is a nice guy
China has always worried me more than did Russia.

China has threatened to take American hostage because we arrested some Chinese scientists. Imagine if Russia did that? I'm not trying to defend Russia, but China gets away with much more. Stupid. Why are we so stupid when it comes to China? Because they are evil?

I think it's because they're an emerging superpower, and the consequences of damaging relations too badly would be significant. That being said, there's clearly the early stages of a cold war developing.
I will start to learn chinese so that I have a competitive edge plus the addes bonmus of swearing to pchang in his mothertongue
(seriously though, it's fascionation learning something so foreign)
