Combined with the massive walkback of their currency devaluation and the Hong Kong protestors, and all these businesses pulling out of China, China needs a win pretty badly. And there's not really good indicators that Trump will lose the election, so waiting it out a year just in case is pretty risky for them.
Watching the way China is behaving is the key to seeing how badly they're hurt, and they're fucking panicking.
It's strange that our little hobby is impacted so much by geopolitical events, but I guess that's where we are.
