    Or China cuts off the US since they're no longer dependent on US manufacturing orders. China sanctioning the US would end our economy overnight, while it wouldn't really effect anyone but the billionaire class in China, and they're already on the chopping block.

    Hell, why not. The whole world of Falun Gong, the Moonies, the Unification Church, and their links to the Trump admin figures everyone loves to hate is pretty fun. I will post about it and ping you in the comments.
