Russia is a menace to US's peasantry, as they might drag the US to a(nother) proxy war.
Whereas China is a menace to the US's aristocracy, in the sense that China is currently richer than the US of A, and despite thousands of articles about how "CHINA'S ECONOMY WILL COLLAPSE TOMORROW!" for the past 15 years, it has yet to happen.
Ergo, the US government won't do shit about Russia, but will bend over backwards for anything related to China.
