Why is China the first in the world to counter the "reciprocal tariff"?

The US is basically handing the reigns of the entire world economy and international institutions to China to be the new world leader and just giving up its position.

Blue countries the largest trading partner is the USA, while red countries the largest trading partner is China.

The problem is that the US’s “weight” is a lot weaker these days, and so when the US is too hostile, it just causes countries to run to China, since they have an alternative now that is even bigger. The US abandoning global institutions is also causing a power vacuum that is being filled by China.

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.

They are the largest economy on earth in terms of GDP (PPP). The US pretends like it is still the mid-1990s and they basically have unquestionable total dominance of the global economy and can just push everyone else around. I don’t think Americans really understand how much China has grown since then.

The US mentality seems to always be to “throw its weight around,” just use brute force to make everyone do what you want them to. They recently have pulled out of many international institutions and agreements and are imposing a trade war on the whole world.
