The ominous point, according to the Journal? “Mr. Xi and his allies aspire to dethrone the U.S. as the world’s premier power. What will President Trump do about it?”
As the vast technological array of bristling military power passed before the likes of Russian autocrat Vladimir Putin, China’s special friend, Kim Jong Un, the North Korean dictator, and 20-some other leaders, a singular message was clear – the world’s largest army is deliberately preparing to do battle with the world’s most powerful military. The highly symbolic military spectacle, China’s first in six years, was presaged by comments from Xi noting that humanity now faced a choice between peace and war, with China now “unstoppable.”
It was also no small irony that the massive, uber-precision military assemblage rolled through the infamous Tiananmen Square where young Chinese unsuccessfully struggled for 51 days to embrace democracy 36 years ago.
President Trump’s response? As the Economist magazine reported, the President took to his Truth Social media, messaging Xi to “give my warmest regards to Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un, as you conspire against the United States.”
