> the fact that this became a partisan food fight

It has not become a partisan food fight. Both parties are whipping up anti-Chinese nationalism in their bases in order to support their next provocation, and the best method to install a belief into those hyperpartisans is to convince them that their counterparts on the other side are opposed to that belief. Republicans and Democrats are both convinced that Democrats and Republicans are dangerously soft on China.

"Republicans and Democrats are both convinced that Democrats and Republicans are dangerously soft on China."

Citation needed. For sure, Republicans are doing this.

Their messaging is so similar that I'm not sure what "this" you're referring to. Are you saying that Republicans are accusing Democrats of being dangerously soft on China, or that Republicans are being dangerously soft on China?

We're being dangerously soft on the ceos and shareholders that sent all the money there...
