That’s kinda negative
Why does the US need china to make stuff?
We don’t. Fuck them. We’re fine on our own
The debt is an issue of course but not the end of the US, probably the end of the global reserve currency though

It's the transition period that will be painful
It took 20 years to offshore manufacturing. We don’t have engineers, welders, fabricators, etc. without rare earths we can’t make the robot factories that replace labor. Ramping up our rare earths manufacturing will take years even at accelerated paces. Weather can only fill a bucket to its lowest hole. The US is inherently strong and will bounce back, but not in the next 2 years.
