Bail out China? Are you f-ing kidding me? De-risk, de-couple, invest in friendly Pacific countries, and maximize military investment to partners in the region. Keep up the pressure and let the Chinese people take down their dictators.
The U.S. has made no end of foreign policy blunders in China; from provoking Japan to help defend China in WW2, to deprioritizing support for the Nationalists during WW2 in favor of other theaters (thus allowing the PRC to more or less sit the war out and come out of it with forces intact and backing from the USSR), to the one discussed above, to supporting the PRC entry in to the WTO trade regime. The smart play now is to disengage from the PRC economically in an orderly way, straighten out our own economic house which has many looming problems, and strengthen our Navy ASAP.
In 1989, it wasn’t painfully obvious that the people’s republic had bought its way into the inner sanctum of our government, which it is now. The preference of the public and possibly Congress to not bail out the CCP might mean no more than the opposition to sending billions of dollars to Iran did.
The US government is not only hostile to the best interests of the country, it’s being run by remote control.
Ultimately, every communist regime collapses because they don't price negative information and because all labor is property of the State, consequently there is no labor value in price. In fact, communist dictatorships routinely manipulate their 'labor value' in free market competitions to their advantage. Slave labor has no price. It is America's responsibility to deal with tyrants clearly and without fear. We do not seek war nor must we provide succor to tyranny

Not just intact, communist forces had Japanese weaponry turned over to them.
