The U.S.-China relationship is the most complex and consequential bilateral relationship in the world today, and yet in the U.S. presidential campaigns, China is typically only mentioned as a lightning rod for criticism, on issues ranging from human rights to cybersecurity to tensions in the South China Sea. In recent years—and certainly in this election cycle—China bashing has become something of a staple on the U.S. campaign trail, though positions and policy almost always soften after election day.
Why is that so? And should it be so? What is the public missing, as the would-be successors to President Obama speak about China, and U.S. policy towards that country?
