Response: China's gamble for global supremacy in era of Trump

I felt like this article really covered the topic of the Current World Issues class currently. To summarize this rather long article, it just talked about how the Chinese thought about the decline of America's economy, global influence, and political stability. For China, according to Xin, they didn't necessarily compete for the top, it was more of the front-runners backing down and pushing China to the top. It was also mentioned how China thought Socialism was better than America's Capitalism after seeing the political disunity among the American people. China has been supportive for Globalism for quite a time now and this "era of Trump" would be a great opportunity to take leadership in the global market. BBC really doesn't have a bias or side in issues outside their country, so I feel like this article was fair. The purpose of this article was to show how China thought about the political unrest in America and how it is an opportunity to strive for global supremacy. The article was really intriguing to read as Xin even compared Trump to Mao, a former dictator of China. Anyways, peace.
