Trump’s trade war isn’t just about China. It’s a class war in disguise.
For decades, elites in both the U.S. and China profited from globalization — while working people paid the price: jobs shipped overseas, communities gutted, and political power drained.
Trump’s tariffs aren’t just economic policy.
They’re a political weapon — playing to the pain of the productive class, channeling resentment into a hardline stance against China, and trying to reclaim dominance in a system that’s shifted power overseas.
But in doing so, he shattered global trust in America’s leadership — and may have triggered the breakdown of the world order it once held together.
