If America stands by and does little. There will be a ne nuclear arms race in SE Asia. Particularly Japan and South Korea, but Australia is not out of the question.

Oh.

I read this wrong.

I thought it said "If China invades, Biden will fiddle while AMERICA burns", and I was wondering if he thought the Chicoms would keep him on as a figurehead or dispense with that altogether.

The Chinese will move with a slow deliberation after the Olympic Games. Before the new GOP Congress takes over in January 2023, they will move on Taiwan. My bet July of 2022 with a full land, air, Space, and sea operation. They will move so fast we will have little time to re-act. Biden will slow things down and not act until the Chinese are in full control of the Island. Media will be their helpers—preaching a hard line CCP Propaganda line 24/7. A Hong-Kong Like Treaty will ensure Taiwan “Independence” in economy.

Commie Joe Biden won’t be fiddling while Taiwan burns.He’ll be sleeping.

Sort of like what happened when the allies invaded fortress Europe.the Nazi General staff wanted to move armor to the allied landing zones on the beach but couldn’t do it because Hitler’s staff were afraid to wake him up.

If they had the capacity to do it, it would already be done.

I think there will be a series of sharp air & naval battles where Taiwan’s forces will be ground down at which point Taiwan will surrender relatively intact.

They have been steadily building the capacity, but the incapacity of Senile Joe Biden opens a window of opportunity they will fly through.

“They have been steadily building the capacity”

It’s not built.

Few understand, at an institutional level, what it takes to move an army across open ocean and land it against a determined, dug in foe.

5,000 missiles are of little help.

Keeping your ships afloat and getting your men to charge out sounds simple. It’s not.

And without BBs, nearly impossible to soften the beach.

Absolute air and sea dominance is but the first prerequisite.

Maybe Biden and his commie goons don’t know Taiwan makes most of the chips for our high tech economy...

The United States will abandon all honor when it greenlights the Chicom invasion of Taiwan and other territorial conquests.

The Obidens and Deep State are making too much money to upset the arrangement.

From the article:

<>Take Taiwan and you demolish American prestige in the region and globally. The successful conquest of Taiwan will leave a “clear and searing” message: The US military, its arsenal of nuclear weapons, and the threat of financial and economic sanctions could not stop the PRC.<>

Chicom conquest will mark the apogee of American worldwide influence and power. It will be all downhill from there.

The PLAAF and the PLAN will blockade Taiwan first. No need to invade.

Taiwan almost certainly has nuclear weapons and the means of accurately delivering them to mainland cities.

But they won't do that under any circumstance.
