Not in their current form. You said that #7 (worsened relations with China) was done by Nixon. Nixon did not make relations between China and the US worse. He made them better. So your statement is wrong.
As for China being an empire; it will take them decades just to catch up to us in GDP, even if we assume they can maintain their current rate of growth.
Military prospects are even worse. China does not have cutting edge weapons technology, and that is not likely to change in the forseeable future.
