“China is not going to start World War 3 over Taiwan.”

Yeah, it’s not likely.

More likely, they’ll try to Hong Kong them. China will encourage the Democrats to pull back from support of Taiwan, and will enter into a Hong Kong style agreement granting autonomy, etc. Then it will squeeze Taiwan and take it over.

Yes. That's the most likely scenario to me.

Astute post. People and countries tend to do things that worked for them in the past.
