You’d be better off asking that to a republican, but to me, no.
From a diplomatic perspective, they don’t seem closer at all because of the tariff escalation. Going forward, depends on how well the heads of state get along.
From the kind of government perspective, they seem very much apart as well. China is your typical autocracy, with all power centered around the president. In the US, corporations and billionaires have too much power for trump to pull all the power to itself, so it’s an oligarchy in a trenchcoat with trump’s head peeking out (and Musk’s also showing…).
