Some US officials seem to have formed a gang of rumormongers to stigmatize China.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, national security adviser Robert O'Brien, FBI director Christopher Wray, and US Attorney General William Barr lined up to peddle the China threat theory. 

Barr alleged that China is engaged in an "economic blitzkrieg" to replace the US as the world's only superpower, which is absolutely absurd. It is in fact the US that has gone out of its way to suppress and threaten other countries.

They are reluctant to face the situation at home and failed to find solutions to problems related to governance. They have adopted a narrow and distorted mindset to defame the achievements other countries have made through hard work.

These politicians also started a series of rumors against China, the Communist Party of China (CPC), the strategic intention and future development of the country, which fully exposed their deep-rooted Cold War thinking and ideological bias.

The most important national condition of China is the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC). The CPC has been chosen by history and people as the ruling party of the country, and is firmly supported by about 1.4 billion Chinese people.

More than 93 percent of Chinese people support and are satisfied with the government under the leadership of the CPC, according to a survey conducted by the Harvard Kennedy School that lasted for 13 years. It fully demonstrates that any attempt to separate the CPC from the Chinese people is doomed to fail.

Some US politicians, however, want to remake China based on their political schemes, when they should really have listened to former US President Richard Nixon, who pointed out that a system that works for the US may not work for others with different experiences.

"We believe in our values, but a basic tenet of these values is not to impose them on others," the former president said.

It should be noted that the mutually beneficial and cooperative relationship established by China and America over the past 40 years suits the interests of the two sides, people in the two countries, and even the entire world.

Many governments in the history of America have actively promoted cooperation with China and win-win results for the two countries.

Some politicians have claimed that "win-win in China means China wins twice”, and accuse China of taking advantage of the US, which are barefaced lies with no grounds at all.

Even as bilateral relations encounter unprecedented difficulties, the fact remains that the two countries have secured mutually beneficial cooperation.

Trade between China and the US increased to $41.2 billion in April, and China once again became the largest trading partner of the US. The amount rose to $46.5 billion in May.

As high as 84 percent of American enterprises are unwilling to ditch the Chinese market, and 38 percent of them will maintain or increase their investment in China, according to a recent survey conducted by the American Chamber of Commerce in China.

Decoupling countries with complex economic relations is like carrying out a difficult surgical operation, said an article titled "The Folly of Decoupling from China” published on Foreign Affairs.

The Chinese economy is not a discrete organism that can easily be separated from the global economy, but rather a Siamese twin, connected by nervous tissues, common organs, and a shared circulatory system, the article added.

One thing is for sure: the harder the China hawks try to attack and discredit China, the faster they will ruin their own reputation, and the less likely will it for them to pull the US out of the predicament.

They could neither address the problems in the US and bring development and prosperity to the country, nor block the progress of China by starting and spreading rumors.
