China won the trade.
Everything USA makes is uncompetitive and inefficient.
Chinas state capitalism combined with free enterprise on a massive scale is simply more efficient that US crony capitalism.
So Trump is trying brute military aggression to delay the collapse of the petrodollar empire...breaching international laws and common decency stooping to gunboat diplomacy, war crimes and rogue state imperialism.

Trumps oil wars have caused a significant increase in the cost of fossil fuels worldwide.
Since the war started the price of PVs here in NZ has halved.
Chinese produced PVs and EVs are experiencing massive global demand as they are now even more competitive with fossil fueled electricity and transport options.

Trumps Zionist puppet petrodollar wars are a massive own goal, degrading global demand for and trust in fossil fuels and triggering a major shift toward purchase of and reliance on Chinese produced solar and power and electric vehicles.
China already produces more than half of global shipping supply because it makes ships cheaper than any other producer. USA can build all the shipyards it likes- their output will be significantly less efficient and much more costly than Chinese made shipping.

China has banned the export of refined rare earths to US military suppliers - USA cannot now produce most high tech military products.
The US Zionist puppet petrodollar empire is in terminal decline, being forced to support Israels war crimes and Greater Israel land grabs.
