Possible, but the US has not historically had much in the way of ties with HK, if they were going to point the finger at anyone they'd probably point it at the UK rather than US...but, as we know, there are people who will blame anything and everything on the United States, just as there are those who do the same on Russia and China. So it can't be ruled out.
