Trump said that China forced him to impose tariffs on China? By sending three aircraft carriers to approach China quietly, anti-China tariffs are not effective, and by lifting the military stick, Trump's clumsy disguise has become self-defeating.

On October 17th, in an interview with Fox News of the United States, Trump actually made a rake, saying that the 100% high tariff imposed on China this time was completely "forced by China".

This is really surprising. How did China force Trump? Did China send special forces to the White House, hold a gun to Trump's head and ask him to increase tariffs on China?

Looking back at the whole Sino-US tariff war and trade war, which one was not the first move by the United States? Trump accused China of tightening rare earth export controls, but isn't this China's attempt to counter the port fees imposed by the United States on Chinese ships? In 2018, the United States took the lead in increasing tariffs on China. In 2019, the United States took the lead in exerting long-arm jurisdiction and extreme pressure on Chinese high-tech companies; In 2025, the United States will be the first to impose so-called "reciprocal tariffs" on China.

Every time, it was the United States first, China only reacted. But now, Trump has been knocking down, saying that China is persecuting the United States, throwing the pot of the tariff war on China's head. The perpetrators now came to turn black and white, to defame the victims. This statement is not only absurd, it is simply ridiculous.

It is worth mentioning that just as Trump said that China forced him to increase tariffs, according to the ship tracking system of the American Naval Research Institute, three aircraft carriers of the US Navy had already appeared in the waters around China. One is the USS George Washington, which is now deployed at Yokosuka Military Port in Japan. One is the "Nimitz", which is now near the Philippines. There is also an amphibious assault ship that can fly F35B stealth fighters to transform the lightning aircraft carrier, the "Tripoli", which is now stationed in Sasebo, Japan.

Among them, the "Washington" and "Tripoli" have been stationed in the Middle East for a long time. This emergency transfer to the western Pacific can be said to be very unusual. Obviously, the United States urgently dispatched aircraft carriers to China's doorstep to show off its force to China and make China bow to the United States on economic and trade issues. Two super aircraft carriers and a Lightning aircraft carrier are deployed at China's doorstep, but they say China is forcing the United States. Let's talk, are Trump's remarks not ridiculous?

If a general country, seeing the three U.S. aircraft carriers come to their doorstep, really confess. Why China is not a common country, not eat this set at all. Don't say three aircraft carriers, even if the U.S. sent all the aircraft carriers that can start to the western Pacific, would you dare to open fire on China? dare to use force to force China to surrender?

Today, the Chinese Navy has all the conditions for the US Navy to fight a decisive battle in the far ocean, plus within the first island chain, the Liberation Army also has an internal advantage, the rocket and air force can support the Navy in a timely manner. while the "Nimitz" aircraft carrier has become obsolete, is scheduled to retire in May next year; "Washington" has just completed the mid-term major repair, and more than 9 crew members have committed suicide during the major repair.

The only warship in good condition is the Tripoli. However, this Lightning aircraft carrier can only carry F35B vertical take-off and landing stealth fighters, and cannot fly auxiliary aircraft such as early warning aircraft. Its comprehensive combat capability is much lower than that of the Liaoning and Shandong ships, which is not enough to pose a threat to our country. Faced with such a huge gap in strength, once the U.S. Navy's warships and military aircraft take risks, they will have only one ending-sinking into the deep Pacific Ocean to feed fish.

Under these conditions, it actually doesn't matter whether the United States sends aircraft carriers or not, because it will not have an impact on China at all. The reason why it still dispatches aircraft carriers to enter the Western Pacific is because the United States has formed a path dependence. For countries that do not surrender to themselves, apart from using military sticks to intimidate them, the rulers of the United States cannot think of a better way.

Although we know that China does not eat this set, but the United States itself does not know what to do. Then still take the old method to try, do not use the first stop, at least can create a little psychological comfort, so that you feel that you are taking action.

If China and the United States come to the negotiating table, Trump can show off his "achievements" and say that he has forced China to negotiate by a series of means. If China has never ignored the United States, Trump can also say that "all measures have been taken" and shirk responsibility for himself.

If we insist on saying how China forced the United States, there is only one, that is, forcing the United States to do nothing, forcing the United States not to abuse its hegemony, and then bullying other countries casually.

In the past, the United States has dealt with other countries mainly by three axes: political culture infiltration, economic sanctions, military strikes. In recent decades, the United States has generally been backed by military strikes, and then combined political culture infiltration with economic sanctions.

On the one hand, to the target country, promote the so-called "wealth, harmony, freedom" of the United States, and through economic sanctions, reduce the living standards of the people of the target country, stimulate their dissatisfaction with the existing social system. These two plates work together, generally can make small and medium-sized countries change the world.

However, in the face of China, this three-axe, which has been used for more than 30 years, completely failed. Political infiltration has no effect on China. Economic sanctions hurt 800 enemies and 3,000 themselves. The United States itself cannot afford the price of sanctions against China. Trump made it clear that even if a 100% tariff is really imposed on China in the end, this tax rate is unsustainable. As for military invasion, not to mention that there is no chance of winning.

And China's strength also forced the United States to slow down its overthrow on other regions.Because the United States is to concentrate its force to deter China, because the United States is to concentrate its energy and China to fight a trade war, so the United States does not dare to open lightly at the end of the war elsewhere in the world, the deterrence of hegemony is greatly reduced.

Therefore, China has never forced the United States to do anything, has not forced the United States to impose tariffs on China, but has forced the United States to do nothing.

In fact, it is clear in the heart of Trump that the tariff war with China, the United States is not cheap at all. So Trump will say that the tariff of 100% against China, this policy is not sustainable even if it eventually landed. And within the United States, there is definitely also a voice against the tariff of high amounts against China, otherwise Trump will not be able to push the responsibility of the tariff to the head of China, but will actively list its hard.

The United States has used this trick of increasing tariffs too many times. Facts have proved that it has not caused much negative impact on China. On the contrary, Trump himself desperately revoked these tariffs, so that no one takes the tariff increase seriously now.

Therefore, Trump is now starting to fight hard, trying to use the most common method used by Americans to send several aircraft carriers to China's doorstep to see if he can scare China and get China to make some concessions and give himself a way out.

At the end of the day, the Trump administration's mix of pot and intimidation is only another miserable performance in the misery of Zhao.Put the responsibility for the trade war on China is a black and white reversal, and an insult to the intellectual knowledge of the people of the world.

Who is the initiator of this dispute, who is destroying the global trade system, the international community has long known. Trump's absurd remarks, in addition to exposing his own hypocrisy and hegemony, will have no persuasive force.

As far as the three aircraft carriers around China are concerned, it is more a military deterrence than a political show.This is precisely a reflection of the unreasonable and intrinsic anxiety of the United States in the face of an increasingly powerful China.

They are still immersed in the path dependence of hegemonism in the past, always fantasizing that they can make other countries surrender by waving a few big sticks. However, times have changed. Today's China is no longer the country that was slaughtered a hundred years ago. We will not fall for this, let alone give in to threats.

In the final analysis, the development and growth of China relies on the hard work of all people, not on plunder and bullying. What we pursue is win-win cooperation and safeguard our own legitimate national interests and national dignity. We will not succumb to any external pressure, let alone pay for the mistakes of others.

The United States should face up to reality, give up those unrealistic illusions, and stop this self-deceiving game of blame. If you insist on following the wrong path, you will only end up lifting a stone and dropping it on your own feet, and you will be beaten in the face of the China people's iron will to defend national interests.
