they need the revenue right now
Do they? I have my doubts as the government needs no funding from anything, since it prints its own money and, to quote Michael Bloomberg, the USA has access to infinite money as China has to keep lending us money.
the US does not want a hot conflict with China, if they did they have had 1000x excuses to do so, from Wuhan to Hong Kong to Tibet...
Which reminds me that the US government is still continuing the literal faggotry of state-sponsored terror in Hong Kong, and Taiwan, that the likes of Pompeo and Rubio started under Trump.
