China is heading into a second round of coronavirus infections. Even Communist Party media is saying the new wave appears "inevitable." Therefore, disease will further disrupt supply chains and drive the Chinese economy deeper into contraction. Moreover, with much of the rest of the world reeling, China's export-dependent economy will lose customers. Yet the biggest concern is how ruler Xi Jinping is alienating the United States and other countries. As a result, the U.S. and other countries are delinking from China.

His writings have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Barron's, and The National Interestamong other publications. He is a contributor at The Daily Beast.
