"...but in fact, what is at stake is much, much bigger, even though the real issue is being treated rather quietly by both sides."
I will scrounge around for what this may be thought to be.
"...Equally determined Republicans made a comparable alliance 70 years ago with the "China lobby" on behalf of Chiang Kai-Shek's doomed regime in China, and kept a stranglehold on U.S. China policy until Richard Nixon turned apostate, courageously, in 1971....."
Weren't there a lot of powerful Democratic Party administrations, both before, during, and after, this period, from the China Lobby 'alliance' 70 years ago until 1971, which also maintained more or less the same policy as the Republicans toward China?
Of course, I view booming Asia, in general, as having been a horrific, and unnecessary, mistake.
