          “We’ve gotten along when there were difficulties, we worked it out,” Trump said to the Chinese leader. “You’re a great leader. Sometimes people don’t like me saying it, but I say it anyway, because it’s true.”

          The best anyone can hope for, experts say, is that both leaders signal stability. Because for all of Trump’s emphasis on his “friendship” with Xi, nearly everything the Trump administration is doing has put the two countries on the path toward a worse relationship, not a better one.

         <span>
          China’s ruling Communist Party has long been preoccupied with insulating the country from geopolitical crises. It’s using subsidies and state support to prioritize self-sufficiency in energy, technology and supply chains when it can, and making sure critical resources like oil, soybeans and cutting-edge chips are reliably available, when it can’t.
         </span>
        </p>
        <p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
         <span>
          The government has redoubled these efforts ever since Trump singled out Beijing in his first presidential term. As Xi put it in a 2020 essay, the goal is to pull “international industrial chains into tighter dependence on China” to “form a powerful ability to counter and deter any deliberate supply disruptions by external actors.”
         </span>
        </p>
        <p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
         <span>
          Trump may have dialed back his rhetoric. But his second term has nonetheless been defined by just these sorts of disruptions, some more deliberate than others. Trump’s trade war, his ousting of the leader of Venezuela, and his military campaign in Iran have all hit China where it hurts.
         </span>
        </p>
        <p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
         <span>
          The trade war has been the most direct attack on Chinese interests. While Trump has rolled back some tariffs on Chinese goods ahead of this week’s summit, his trade officials are pursuing something more antagonistic. They’ve used sanctions and trade agreements to compel companies and countries to remove China from their supply chains and ban the export of critical resources China needs, like American chips.

          Washington’s actions to undermine Chinese economic security have set off alarm bells in Beijing, prompting China to accelerate its efforts to secure supply chains (and also prepare to use them against its enemies). It’s doing this in part by manufacturing more at home. That, in turn, will lead Chinese companies to export more, which will heighten geopolitical tensions, which will set off a new chain reaction of political backlash.

          With the A.I. rivalry increasingly defining the U.S.-China relationship, is there any sign that either side is willing to treat A.I. risk as a shared problem, or is the competitive dynamic now too entrenched for any meaningful cooperation?

          Think raw milk and sourdough bread. Biblical eaters are part of a niche but dedicated online community based in the U.S. that tries to tie religious values to dietary needs. “Sin entered into the world through food,” one Christian content creator said. “Food, for me, is really like a weapon of how I can fight back.”
