I worked in the People’s Republic of China in the late 1980’s, just as they were attempting to liberalize their economy.  It seemed a time of great promise.  The Soviet Union was falling and China seemed determined to avoid the same fate and so sought a soft landing away from communism.  It seemed to be working for a while.  Sure the government remained quite centralized, but the economy was liberalizing rapidly.  But it was a shell game, three-card monte, a trick.  A way to worm their way towards major power status without direct conflict.  President Trump understands this and is fighting back.  Democrats, unfortunately, don’t get it just yet.  And so China is trying the same game in Trumpian terms.
