I’m thinking Taiwan has aces up its sleeve.
Except...WE are not in charge. Those who are cannot be trusted to even fight back if attacked.
Finger cuffs made of soft bamboo....
As a little kid I wondered how the Asians even bothered to make them since even to a child they were ineffective.
Look at this weird suggestion in a Walmart ad——
OTVIAP Chinese Bamboo Finger Trap,24pcs ... -
Finger traps can be used as a chewing toy for birds. The natural bamboo will not harm pets. Food can also be placed inside these bamboo finger traps as a toy ....
“She is the third in line to the presidency and the most senior US figure to visit the self-governing island in decades.”

One of my pet peeve is when people can’t count.
Pelosi, as Speaker of the house, is second in line to become president. Biden is the president,l hubbbbbbbbh at least according to what everybody says, though I don’t believe it. He isn’t in line for anything (except ice cream and brains). Harris, as the VP, is first in line, with Pelousy thus 2nd in line.
Problem was, the attacking planes were coming from a strange direction and it all was ignored.
The worst was....MacArthur ignored the whole thing and let his air force get destroyed in the Philippines.
That day was one total disaster.
Jeez, wiki does not like links to a movie where a Chinese Blockade of Taiwan leads to a nuclear war with the US…pure sci fi, eh
Part 1 on youtube

We can assume all we want.
Question is...how many have they managed to get into this country the last few years? Have there been Cubans coming cross our southern border? Communists from South and Central America where China has been working? Do we know who the hell those that have come across are?
The Reds dont have to invade Taiwan. They can blockade it. They can turn those loose those they infiltrated into this country.
Or the Chinese just pull strings in multiple domains of warfare, and cause the economic collapse of Taiwan and social unrest
The Taiwanese population ..2/3 to 3/4…have family and commercial ties to the Mainland or otherwise and will not support being turned into another US proxy to be fed into a superpower meatgrinder by a “pro-independence” Pelosi-wannabe president
The boomers. What about the boomers?
YA..get this..the very first success and shots fired in WW2 by the USA was a destroyer getting that sub.
A day before war was declared...or abouts.
Cant remember the name of that destroyer...
By the way - Chinese missiles are now reliable and highly accurate.
Really?
Who are you going to get to do it?
Have you checked gas and diesel prices lately? (I know it's been coming down. What did you think it was going to do before the 2022 elections while the Commucrats are in power?)
Checked the price of anything in the stores? How does it compare to even January 1st of this year?
Checked the price of new cars, or availability?
The American government is run by communist sympathizers, agents and/or bought and paid for agents of our enemies.
Our educational institutions are assembly lines for America hating dumbed down deluded graduates only qualified to be community organizers and welfare dependents.
Our economy is a wreck. Have you tried to have something repaired lately?
Have you looked around your favorite grocery store or retailer?
Have you talked to a small business owner or a trucker about what they are seeing?
Have you tried to get a medical procedure done?
FWIW, here's a guy who does a prepper channel on Youtube and is receiving hundreds of reports weekly from all over the country about what people are seeing in their part of the world: ”Boots on the Ground Reports on the US Economy
Our fine military leaders and Pentagon lawyers along with every chickenhawk in congress has allowed us to lose enough wars to make this one a slam dunk.
the U.S. Trident submarine force is still the finest, most in-vunerable nuclear weapon system in the world. Unmatched accuracy..and only 10 minutes from striking China...
By the way - Chinese missiles are now reliable and highly accurate.
Yep! I've got Bill Gertz's book, "Betrayal" that he wrote about the Clinton treason on the edge of my desk.
Here's C-Span interview from May 20, 1999 that Gertz did:
Snip:
May 20, 1999
Booknotes
Betrayal
Bill Gertz talked about his book, Betrayal: How the Clinton Administration Undermined American Security, published by Regnery. He said that President Bill Clinton’s policies compromised national security by opposing development of a missile defense system. Mr. Gertz said that the Russians are developing new weapons of mass destruction using U.S. foreign aid money designated for nuclear weapons decommissioning. He also said the sale of satellite and computer technology to China was influenced by campaign contributions
Some people forget that we are still a huge manufacturer.
Although we lost number one in 2011, we are still number 2 in manufacturing.
Then Japan, Germany, and South Korea.
Hey, China has been busy building up it’s military and we have be busy making our military “woke”.
