Let them get pissed off over Trump ...

China is deep down scared as shit about Trump because their afraid he's going to take away their profits ...

People call out Trump being blind on Russian imperialism (and somewhat rightfully so) but does that mean we're supposed to be blind on China's imperialism for doing the same things to it's neighbors like claiming Taiwan for itself since it didn't officially declare it's own independence and trying to aggressively claim the South china Sea for itself ?

On one hand, yes I can see your point. On the other hand, I can see China not seeing your point, lol. 

They are even more vindictive than the Russians and the Russians are a royal pain in the ass for the US and Europe right now. I think what will actually happen if China feels disrespected.

1.) They will start a rapid acceleration of more nuclear weapons and higher military spending in general. They are already beefing this up anyway, but look for it to increase more in the next 4 years. 

2.) I would watch for (warily) an alliance with Mexico (another country not happy with Trump). Lo and behold here's China today making a huge oil deal with Mexico:

The reason why something like this should be looked upon warily ... if Mexico is "bought" by China, what happens if China starts asking for military bases in Mexico? Once they have military bases in Mexico they can easily launch attacks on the US. This is exactly how the Russia/Cuba/USA conflict turned very dangerous very quickly.

3.) China will look to funnell money to basically anyone who doesn't like the US. ISIS. Iran. China has no moral qualms with fighting dirty. That's kinda the problem I see with them.

Military base in Mexico would be an open pass to pimp the shiiiit out of south Korean and Japanese bases, which china really wouldn't want.
