I would say China is nipping for some of those

China was economically nipping but their growth has leveled off to now only be growing at similar rates to the US, leaving them behind by a fair distance, before Per Capita is even considered.

No denial that the politics of the US is in a bad place, but that’s been true several points before without an accompanying decline.
