Taiwan is next. Brandon will blame the collapse of America on Putin and XI, not his total lack of preparedness.

[DannyTN]

We need backups/disaster recovery plans for anything we depend on Taiwan for.

And we also want to keep technology out of Taiwan’s hands that China doesn’t have.

[hinckley buzzard]

No surprise. Putin has been actively consolidating Chinese support for months. Including increased sales of energy to China, who need it desperately.

And the remainder of the long game some of us predicted is now demonstrably proven.

That didn’t take long. The Taiwanese will now flee for their lives. If there’s any way to make lemonade of the continuing disaster that is Joe Biden, I can’t imagine what it is. Taiwan is gone. I suspect a Russo-Sino conspiracy hatched long ago. The Ukraine debacle is test of US resolve. (Epic Fail) Taiwan is the objective. China-Russia collaboration is the deterrent to any US response.

“Germany must back Japan over Pearl Harbor, so it gets support when it fights for Russia.”

How did that work out for them?

[tsomer]

Ukraine and Taiwan are not the same. The two situations are not analogous.

Consider:
If Taiwan loses, China wins.
If Taiwan wins, China loses.
If Ukraine wins, China wins.
If Ukraine loses, everybody else wins, because China loses.

For the foreseeable future, all geopolitical questions hinge on China.

I see a big upside to a hot war with China. That would end all economic ties to that bastard Marxist empire and leave all of our home grown Free Traitors™ hanging out to dry. LOL. Love the thought.

Maybe we could have a real economy again with manufacturing leading the way.

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

Surprised China hasn’t taken Taiwan yet. Surely they realize President Corn Pop ain’t gonna do shit

[budj]

Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts.

What makes all of this worse is that if China and Russia support and trade with each other, not only will it render our sanctions ineffective, but it will be our money pouring into China that makes them ineffective.

We'll suffer massive inflation, but the Russians and Chinese will make out like bandits with our money.

So much for saving money by outsourcing all of our manufacturing and technology.
