I would suggest it may indeed be "winning" to have other nations understanding this or at least thinking it so.

Sorry your dramatic OP didn't work out the way you wanted.
Maybe some other country will shite talk America tomorrow and you can start another thread.

China is a real threat and the trade war with them can be justified in some capacity
But given that they're a real threat we need as many allies in the region to deter that threat
Philippines, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea are rather obvious. We don't need them strengthening ties with China. We need them on our side. I know it's a bit of a trope that all Asians hate all other Asians but it's highly preferable to maintain strong relationships with the countries that can keep China in check militarily.

Just think what could have been, though!

this is going to sound dramatic, but any country that voluntarily decides to side with China knowing they will be at a full trade imbalance from the start, have their businesses and corporations at a disadvantage due to the impossible barriers to entry being extremely one-sided, and having their intellectual property be at risk due due to the joint ventures that China requires them to enter into in order to do business in the country.
well, if you know that and you're willing to do it, then you deserve have all that.

China is starting to innovate on their own now though which should be concerning to the west

The USA is the largest consumer of all the Asian produced products. As cheap as they are, 75% of worlds population can't afford them. Who is going to replace us?

So?
There is not much love in Singapore for PRC nationals. There are cultural ties to be sure, but Singapore has been a consistent ally to the US on geopolitics in the region.
I don’t see the PRC having a consistent (and welcomed) military presence there. We have CVN’s and Aegis there on regular basis.
