Your GDP doesnt need to drop for you to not be Number one. China's is growing for faster than yours and tbh its pretty obvious really isnt it. Theres what 1.3bn people in china compared to 300million in the US. Once China uses its population as well as the US does its GDP is going to be over 4 times the size.

GDP per Capita lelz. Most of China is still a fucking shithole. They have a lot of problems they'd need to fix too... It's not all glamorous as people think. Growing and booming yes, but they'd have their recession and great depression.

They still have a population more than 4 times the size of the US. Therefore if 75% of China was an absolute slum and contributed nothing to GDP, the remaining 25% only has to equal USA for the GDP to be larger.

GDP per capita puts the US 7th according to the IMF.

China's GDP is set to pass the US as #1 in the world in ~5 hrs, IIRC.

And that has fuckall to do with a "trade war."

We have more nuclear weapons than them. That's all that matters.

"Most of China is still a fucking shithole. They have a lot of problems they'd need to fix too... It's not all glamorous as people think. Growing and booming yes, but they'd have their recession and great depression. " -Cybargs is correct, I don't know how many times I have to re-iterate this, but the basic standard of living in china is really poor (no potable water), only the large corporations are slated to grow.
