What about “Sinkin Sara”?

PLOT CHANGE:

China claims it’s stealth sub sunk.

It quietly moves off into nuke position off the Cali coast to wait.

For lack of ships that can be deployed and supported at oceanic distances in a future conflict, China cannot keep the US Navy from sweeping the seas clean of Chinese commerce. Thus, if China tries to blockade or capture Taiwan, the US can shut down Chinese maritime trade with the rest of the world.

"the US can shut down Chinese maritime trade with the rest of the world."

Please let this happen sooner rather than later.

[Rockingham]

More likely, I hope, will be China’s economic decline leading to a loss of the confidence needed to challenge the US and to try to take Taiwan. Perhaps there may even be a new democracy movement that overthrows the Chinese communist regime.
