The China can was kicked down the road over and over.
At some point they will make a move too far to play the West and the West will say uh-uh China. We’re not being played now.
If the US does not launch an orderly and overwhelming invasion into North Korea when SHTF, however, China is going to get mobbed with refugees from the chaos and will probably just coldly shoot them down. I don’t think Trump wants that kind of humanitarian disaster.
I don’t either. The problem is, it’s either taking a chance like that or facing our own problems here some day.
