LOL! Flint water contamination was the result of the city bureaucrats changing water source and not applying sufficient anti-corrosion chemical to the pipes (i.e. bureaucratic maintenance failure/cost-cutting comparable to Venezuela and Cuba as well as the former soviet block) . . . and medical services being so expensive is once again due to government bureaucracy banning the free practice of medicine.
Monopolists are monopolists even if they wear the costume of government bureaucrats. Their first priority is always themselves, and the rest of the population suffer due to that forced transfer from the average people to the monopolists. Yet somehow the allegedly well-educated leftists believe monopolists are the solution to every problem (usually created by government enforced monopolies to begin with!)

US exports to China 2017: $165.5B
US exports to China 2018: $179.6B
China exports to US 2017: $197.9B
China exports to US 2018: $193.5B
The US is the #1 individual country export destination for Chinese goods.
China is the #3 individual country export destination for US goods.
This tells me:
US putting tariffs on Chinese imports hits at their #1 destination. China putting tariffs on US imports hits at our #3 destination.
However, the value of export trade is nearly the same for both country pairs, which suggests that to absorb tariffs is a much worse pill to swallow for China than the US at this point. Also, China is a totalitarian state with a much more tenuous hold over its overshot population, where economic hardship, however temporary, can have an impactful outcome on stability.

My Early predictions for 2024 I think the Trump's will not want to be accused of a Dynasty. So they will sit a few elections out before any of them enter the race.
If Lindsey Graham keeps his based Patriot appearance up, he will be next major contender. In fact, had this Lindsey ran in 2016, he would have easily beaten Trump.
Remember not every Trump supporter that voted for him in the elections. Were keen on him during the Primaries. This Lindsey graham would closed Trump out early on in the Primaries before Trump could have warmed up to all of the voters that ultimately became his loyal base.
