Yep the only thing that was on the books to slow the growth of China was TPP, Trump cancelled it day one, effectively handing world leadership to Xi. Just a matter of time now.

Next thing Trump needs to do either by bombing or starving is hand China, North Korea, That will give them military bases in the south China sea they want and an unlimited supply of cheap labour ( All great economy's need their slaves ), Russia will probably try and muscle in on that but China will win. All the cheap shit the Chinese want will come from North Korea and they can also pass off their major polluting industries.

China is not immune to internal conflict however, they have plenty of their own old cranky people and radicals.
