Move the chip factories and the young folk. Leave the old folk behind. Blow up everything on the way out.

Then what about Hong Kong?

And Biden saluted and said, “Yes sir!”

“During the summit Chinese communist leader Xi Jinping told Joe Biden to his face that China will take Taiwan at the time of their choosing.”

Not a chance would he say this to Trump.

They will take Taiwan without anyone firing a shot.

The people of Taiwan travel to China with regularity. Families are in both places. The rank and file, don’t care all that much.

Of course, the people running the country care.

China does not have the sea lift capacity to take Taiwan. Air superiority is not going to cut it. With the missiles on Taiwan, any sea invasion would be mostly at the bottom of the Straits before they got half way there. China would not risk their aircraft carriers or their ports—which would come under attack.

If the US got involved, we would lose carriers and likely the Long Beach, San Francisco, and Seattle Ports. The Panama Canal would be closed. Japan would be heavily attacked.

China would be shut off from middle eastern oil. The pipelines from Russia are so fragile it would take a couple of cruise missiles to destroy them. There are two of them.

China would lose its largest trading bloc. Their economy would go further into the tank. They would be left trading with Russia and India.

Does anyone think China is going to risk that?

All of this talk about China “taking” Taiwan by force is done to trigger people. Biden’s ineptness has made it more triggering. But the facts on the ground do not support China moving on a place like Taiwan for a long, long time.

Before you get too far down the rabbit hole, ask yourselves...”How would that happen and what would it look like?”

And, all we have is Biden's word for this?

China doesn't need to take military action against Taiwan. It can economically strangle it to force compliance.

What Taiwan doesn't need is for us to fight a proxy war with China that would end up destroying it. There is zero chance of Taiwan winning a military conflict with China. And, there isn't a national interest that would involve sending US troops there to die.

Our problems with China are economic and have been brought on by corrupt politicians that have allowed the Chinese to screw us over. That most certainly needs to be corrected with a second Trump term.

China Will Take Taiwan

China doesn't have to take anything - Taiwan is part of China, and recognized as such by the United States formally since 1983, and de facto since 1973.

I bet you think Hitler invaded Austria, too.

i’m beginning to think that even if they do permit Trump to run and win, that it’ll just delay Xi a while tii a new D POTUS is secured after Big T — assuming they even allow him to run at all — which I doubt.

We’ll see.

Xi takes one look at Biden and knows he can do anything he wants to America, any time he wants.

Off China began massing forces could we trust this government to inform us? I would expect China to do it before Biden leaves office.
