How to lose the 21st century to China:
1. Unilaterally disarm regarding the soft power competition by ending economic aid and international media agencies.
2. Impose tariffs irrationally on everyone.
3. Invade Greenland, break up NATO, and isolate the US from the entire world.
4. Defund universities.
5. Discourage the best and brightest from immigrating to the US.
6. Withdraw from international organizations, handing over their control to the Chinese Communist Party.
7. Foment polarization between Americans.
8. Stop supporting democracy abroad; just talk about power.
9. Weaken American democratic institutions at home.
