Perhaps you can help me to understand how radically reducing the purchasing power of American consumers kicks Xi in the face.
It's like this.
If I shoot a burglar in the face, who has been ripping me off and my neighbors off for some time, I've delivered a life-altering "mule-kick" to some ****. Now, perhaps my neighbor buys cheap cocaine from the burglar I just shot. True, he's out of luck; he will now have to search for an alternative drug supply from someone who hasn't been ripping off the neighborhood for the last 30 years. And, my crack-head neighbor might have to pay a little more for his recreational drugs from some other creep. Because, I just killed the creep who has been stealing from me and my neighbors who has also been supplying my one neighbor with cheap crack.
