Cut off a nation as big and determined as China and they will just become more self sufficient.
Given how the US has become more and more isolated as it turns hostile towards immigrants and what is called the Global South, of course the Mainland Chinese will befriend and establish trading deals with any country alienated by Trump. Like, for example, Taliban Afghanistan's mineral deposits.
Nations can't be determined.
Anyway. Yes, but there's nuance, China is not heaven on earth.
