Former President Donald Trump has been reelected, so we open this week with Miles Yu’s take on the how and why of Trump’s reelection and what it says about the state of the American people and American democracy. Next, Miles previews what Trump’s reelection means for United States–China relations, how the Chinese Communist Party might react, and where Trump and Xi Jinping might butt heads first. We close by highlighting a viral cultural phenomenon unfolding inside China, which saw tens of thousands of young people harmlessly riding bicycles overnight to go get dumplings. The CCP has since shut down nighttime bike riding as a response, and Miles details why the CCP’s paranoia of this large gathering of light-hearted youth could be a sign of things to come.
