The USA and Russia have both hung "Out to Lunch" signs on their countries as the psychopathic criminals robbing both nations blind, deaf and dumb exist in delusion funnels of yes-critters and flattering bullshit versions of events and each nation is less of a rational actor than that guy on the bus said you were a ham sandwich could he chew on your coat.

Dude's as totalitarian as the rest of them. Much more competent.

A moment presents itself could he resist to play the long game?

They'll figure it out if only through trial and error eventually though to secure supply lines for trade and that works best when everyone's not pissed at you as Putin & Trump show.

Nature and global politics abhor a vacuum and can forgive a lot of sins - look what the US and Russia got away with all this time - so China being the rational superpower will make the world see their standards as default, which is still kind of a work in progress given problematic quality control standards there.

Taiwan and India right there, he just hands the dynamite to the chaos monkey like those two did and who's going to stop him?

Who's stopping either of them? Or Netanyahu, dripping with the blood of innocents, a one man hit squad for journalists telling the truth?

Xi must be looking at the news every morning and thinking why the hell not? He can badass at the world and make it lick his shoes like them. Why not
