What US officials are ready to fight China over anything? President Trump was “voted” out of office in November and left the WH in January. All his people are gone. The bureaucrats that remained, folks from the new administration and a sizable chunk of Congress are owned lock, stock and barrel by China.
There’s not a single, solitary sole in the current administration that would even think of taking on China for any reason.
Wait a minute....maybe Swalwell can broker a deal.
China can take Taiwan whenever it wants and they’ll probably be able to do it without firing a shot. There’s no Pacific Fleet coming to the rescue.
All China has to do is form a blockade of the ports, start docking their ships and off loading troops and military hardware. Interestingly, they’ll get their hands on Taiwan’s F16s and some other US military hardware that they can then steal and duplicate.
On the one hand, it should take quite a bit to get us into a war, and we have certainly gone into far too many of them without a clearly defined purpose, or mission. On the other hand, we are the last of defense of a Western world that has grown soft, and obsessed with ridiculous things like gender identity and critical race theory. Our economy survives because of our position as the dominant economic engine in the world, but once an up and comer, like China, determines they can supplant us, it will be just a matter of time before they make their move.
