    Possibly, Yes.

    China has a mandate to become global superpower #1 by 2049, Mao made a promise to the Chinese people and his underlings made that a promise to him.

    1849 - 1949 was China’s “Century of humiliation”

    1949 - 2049 is China’s “Century of Development”

    2049 - 2149 is to be the “Chinese Century”

    China will have pulled no stops to make that happen, whilst undoubtedly this is Trump fumbling over and over - this might actually be beneficial as now they don’t need to prove their worth as a superpower through war.
