There's something extremely funny about the president of the US looking at what's going on China and saying out loud, "Their economy is a ticking time bomb." This is almost an onion news story.

Listen, Fat! The US economy is doing better than any economy has every done in history, Jack. I call it Bidenomics. Get with the program.
Yeah yeah, I've heard that before. There's a whole cottage industry of "experts" that have predicted the imminent collapse of China going back decades. Call me when it actually happens.
If you think China's economy is a time bomb wait til you hear about what it means when the dollar is no longer the reserve currency around the world.
By my estimates, China has only 70 more years until complete and utter collapse!
The country that leads the world in mass shootings shouldn't be labeling other countries as "ticking time bombs."
The old federation is dying, the new one struggles to be born. Now is the time of unlimited China struggle sessions.
It feels really remarkable how quickly in the late 2010s that top level people in the US government (as well as the media and society generally) pivoted to using annihilationist rhetoric as though China is some sort of anime arch-enemy they have to power up to defeat. I guess this is probably what the red scare years after 1945 felt like when the US and USSR quickly shifted from allies to rivals
ANY DAY NOW
Man leading country with the largest homeless population in the world says country which eliminated extreme poverty within its borders is about to collapse, of course this is true and should be taken seriously
