China is the only country in the world that can seriously challenge America’s longstanding status as the globe’s top dog

Bonner Cohen: China is the only country in the world that can seriously challenge America 's longstanding status as the globe’s top dog.

He says a rejuvenated U.S. is only thing standing in the way of an ambitious China ascending to the peak of the heap.

Cohen : Washington can harness its geological assets to the disadvantage of China .

Trump is deliberately shrinking the U.S. market for wind turbines and for the predominately Chinese -supplied raw materials that go into them.

The goal is to play to America ’s strengths, which lie in fossil fuels and a rejuvenated nuclear-power industry, while lowering our dependence on China by turning away from wind and solar power.
