China’s Communist Party is steeling the nation’s population for an ideological battle in the trade war with the U.S. It is an approach that could backfire

Does the WSJ think the Chinese approach will backfire before Trump’s? We are being portrayed as the aggressor which inspires patriotism in China. That can keep any country’s people on board for a long time. Ask Canadians.
The USA cannot win a trade war with China. It is increasingly apparent we will not win a political war either. China will replace the United States on the world stage. Trump is ensuring that will happen.
No. It will not. In 99, when the U.S. “accidentally” bombed the Chinese embassy in the Balkans, the land was fertile for propaganda. That is even more true with Trump. This is a windfall. It gives them a purpose, which obviates the “core problem” as Professor Spence distills.
All the countries that were the allies of the USA are pushed away and forced to be partners with China. China has a close relationship with Russia. Therefore, these countries are building a relationship with Russia indirectly. That is Putin’s strategy and Trump is just serving him.
I'm not a huge fan of the CCP but trump definitely started it. Welcome to what might possibly be the dumbest trade war in modern human history.(So far)
Fox News is telling its viewers the same BS propaganda in reverse.
Will that backfire?
It already is, isn’t it?
Their contrived talking points are crashing into an economic reality that is becoming undeniable. Fox News will try to deny it anyway, but for how much longer? Trump’s stupidity is real.
"an approach that could backfire"
That's a load of Shi_. WSJ, no expert on China's internal workings has no idea what it is writing or saying - "could backfire!" They should go further with their subtitle: "Xi may embarrass himself and his nation by fighting American tariffs." More crap from WSJ
