No matter what, don’t fire back. RUN!

My fearful gut feeling: Biden-Harris-Obama will get us into a war with China

with the intention of losing to Xi Jinping.

I remember how quiet things were in the spring of 2001.

It was stupidly quiet and uneventful, and that P-3 incident really stood out. There was nothing going on.

Then came 9/11.

Now, when things seem uneventful, I get worried.

Yes, that’s fantasy alright, because most of Biden’s voters are only worried about the street price of drugs, and if they are the correct gender. Maybe cause some of the fence sitters to wake up ,though..

Immediately after overflying Taiwan.

Interesting. Like they are trying to provoke a reaction. Setting up a live fire test of some systems?

The only thing that is going to happen quickly is the Biden/Harris betrayal of Taiwan.

************************

First, China needs to get Hong Kong under control. So far they are really working hard on that. Once there are no problems there..it’s Taiwan time.

USA is dead. Time for the red states to secede.

One little surrender at a time and pretty soon, you rule.

Hong Kong and Taiwan are on their own. Sorry. We have our own problems to worry about.

Actually, I think they are probing us to find out just how neutered a Biden presidency actually is (i.e., are there any hawks still lurking about in the Pentagon or elsewhere that might cause trouble for them).

Xi won't know until he rattles our cage just how we might respond.

This is not a good sign, but we knew it had to be coming soon.

Da** sick and tired of these slant eyed chink bastards pushing everyone around.
Yeah you will condemn my harsh language but what I said above will be used by all Americans when we are at war with them in a few more years

I’m not a big fan of that. What it does is cut in half our
population figures. It’s cuts in half the GDP, and the
ability to service the debt.

Maybe when the Left has to face that, it would wise up. I
don’t bet on it.

We have a standing in the world, and we better guard that
standing vigorously. China would love to see us half as
strong.

I know where you are coming from, and a lot of folks will
agree with you. I’m not there yet.

Well, it is a good thing US vessels are now Chinese owned so they are not foreign.
