I don't believe it. The GOP has shown itself to be utterly corrupt with zero integrity. They've been spitting on the Constitution and this country's well-being for years. Long before Trump. I don't think they are even capable of doing the right thing anymore because the party is rotten to the core.

We'll see. I do think things are reaching a tipping point. While some of the GOP may try to bluster it out if Trump fires Mueller people will hit the streets again if they do, and I think the GOP has demonstrated this year they have no stomach for that.

I could agree with some of this but the article fails to take into consideration what China gains domestically as well as regionally.

China is not going to stop trading with North Korea, no matter what  Trump says. As one Republican senator aptly put it, "Nobody's afraid of Trump, not even the White House pages". And since the U.S. has pulled out of the TPP, China's rival trade bloc grows a bit more in esteem. 

So maybe from an U.S.-centric perspective, China doesn't gain but that is a slightly myopic view and doesn't give a full picture.
