The US has been dealing with trade for about 250 yrs, China has been dealing with these things for over 2000.
One could flip it around and argue that China has been bad at trade since they have been dealing with these things for over 2000 years and still aren't number one, even with 3-4 times the population of the US.
Don't misunderstand me, in the current situation China is absolutely acting in a more rational way. China are making friends. The USA are burning bridges, and more or less punishing their allies for their loyalty.
