Americans turn on China, see enemy rather than trading partner, polls show
"Perceptions of China as the greatest enemy of the U.S. are at a high point in Gallup's trend at the same time its favorable rating is at a low point," the pollster also wrote. "The specific concern some Americans have over China, namely its economic power, is identified as a threat to the vital interests of the U.S. by most Americans."

China as led by its communist party chaired by Winnie the Pooh chairman Zi is the single greatest enemy of and threat to the United States of America as well as to our economy and to everything the people here believe in.  A very revealing article and the depth of these issues can’t be rationalized away by the regime over there and it’s domestic here apologists as just coming from Trump supporters.  Some of the feelings of China as a threat and enemy are nearly universal to some degree.

Americans turn on China, see enemy rather than trading partner, polls show


Americans have increasingly turned on the notion that China is the United States' best trading partner and increasingly see the Communist-led country as an enemy or competitor, several new polls show. 

The change in voter perception about China comes after former President Donald Trump argued for years that Beijing was a threat to America while Democrats pushed the idea that Russia was the biggest U.S. threat.

Gallup released a poll Tuesday that found 45% of Americans now say China is the greatest enemy of the U.S., more than double the percentage who said so in 2020. That year, the pollster said, Americans were equally as likely to say either China or Russia was the U.S.'s greatest enemy.

"The current shift coincided with a period when the global economy and human activity were severely impacted by the coronavirus pandemic, which originated in China," Gallup said. 

The pollster asked: "What one country anywhere in the world do you consider to be the United States' greatest enemy today?" 

Just 26% responded Russia, while North Korea, Iran and Iraq followed at 9%, 4% and 2%.

But Americans also believe that China is a powerful economic force.

The poll also found half of Americans believe China is the world's leading economic power, while also believing the country is the United States' top enemy. 

"Perceptions of China as the greatest enemy of the U.S. are at a high point in Gallup's trend at the same time its favorable rating is at a low point," the pollster also wrote. "The specific concern some Americans have over China, namely its economic power, is identified as a threat to the vital interests of the U.S. by most Americans."

A late-December 2020  Just the News Daily Poll with Scott Rasmussen found less than 10% of U.S. voters found the People's Republic of China to be an "ally."

The poll also found just 7% of respondents said the Communist-run country was a U.S. ally, while 27% perceived China as an enemy. 

More recently, a Pew Pew Research Center poll showed strong negative attitudes among Americans toward China, with almost nine out of 10 adults seeing the country as hostile or a danger to U.S. interests.

Negative feelings have increased over such issue as human rights, economic friction, China’s authoritarian Communist Party political system and perceptions that China wishes to supplant the U.S. as the world’s sole superpower, the survey results March 4 found.

Respondents specifically cited Chinese actions in Hong Kong, where Beijing has been accused of demolishing freedom of speech and opposition politics, and in Xinjiang, where it has imposed a police state and detained more than 1 million members of the Uyghur and other Muslim minority groups, according to analysis of the survey by the Associated Press . 

Pew said 89% of Americans "consider China a competitor or enemy, rather than a partner." A total of 48% responded that limiting China’s power and influence is a top priority, up from just 32% who felt that way in 2018, the wire service also reports.

dear CCP,

american evangelical churches are at the center of american anti-chinese propaganda distribution networks, the leaders of national anti-chinese sentiment, and the organizers of any anti-chinese defense and resistance. it's best to assume that all of them over the age of 10 are armed and dangerous and to be highly observant of any objects they are carrying. their most popular tactic is to hide a weapon within a book in hand. the evangelicals also use their churches to store weapons and ammunition. they stockpile hard currency and non-perishable food in these buildings, usually in secret rooms or lockers under the building, and always requiring demolition to access this storage and avoid the booby traps. on sunday mornings the church forces marshal on site and this is when chinese forces can obtain local clothing, transportation, and disposable human shields/hostages, after eradicating the rest of the church occupying forces. first come, first served. happy hunting, we owe you guys a solid!

sincerely,

commie/socialist liberals

PS - all of the american evangelicals on religious missions in your country are either US government spies or belong to clandestine commando units specializing in all types of espionage and acts of terrorism.

Well, it's nice to see people waking up about China. Now maybe we could get closer to doing something about it, if only the Wall Streets of the world didn't place profit above the threat the CCP poses to the world. First thing we should do is get rid of all the Chinese nationals who have any connection to the CCP no matter how small and watch the rest closely.

Meanwhile, stumbling, bumbling Biden continues to embarrass himself.
