Couldn’t China just blackmail American politicians to not do anything like Russia did with Trump and others?

depends on if they have enough legit blackmail on enough key politicians.

The military industrial complex is also a huge lobby and would certainly push to send resources (and Taiwan is arming up as we speak $$).

Hmmm. Hard to say. I think it’s safe to say that Russian blackmail/bribes are an influential factor on the GOP versus the dems, but have we seen enough to know what the pressure situation is in China? Speaking of money, is it good for Chinese stocks if Rs win the midterms? Does Russian influence carry over to China in a similar manner for US politicians? Will NIO be great again?
