And this is why I don't believe it will happen. It would totally tank the ChiCom's economy. Going to war with your best customer not to mention the rest of the NATO nations is not a good business model.
China likely depends more economically on us, NATO, and UN, nations, than we do them, don't you think? I just hope the weapons they manufactiure are as poor quality as everythiung else they produce, if it comes to that?

The Chinese haven't a prayer to seize taiwan...for now....

the numbers just don't add up...

Granted, neither the USA nor China could decisively defeat the other in a total war...China could give us a bloody nose, but they don't have the naval assets to successfully invade Taiwan. Taiwanese will fight savagely, and the geography of Taiwan makes invasion...complicated. There are only a few beaches suitable for a landing, all well known to the US and Taiwanese. There are only a few times a year that there is a window of opportunity for such landing, because of tidal situations... Taiwan is both very mountainous and urbanized...Unless Taiwan collapses completely within a few weeks(unlikely), USA will have plenty of time to respond...

and once the Chinese fail their invasion of Taiwan, they would be in a very vulnerable position indeed. China is surrounded by unfriendly nations and they are heavily reliant on imports of raw materials, and their economy is still predominately export-orientated. that means a US blockade of their vulnerable coast(where all their major cities are) would destroy the Chinese economy for decades....

But then again, a US incursion into the Chinese heartland would be foolish, so we could make them hurt but we couldn't decisively defeat them...

my opinion, is that if we're going to be defeated by the Chinese, it will be from within, not in a direct military confrontation that the Chinese will not risk unless they have a decisive advantage...

WE are already at war with China.

However most of WE don't realize it.

China is in it for the long game, we are not. Usually our entire philophy of doing things gets flushed down the drain every 4 years and some entirely new thing is pushed upon us American citizens & taxpayers.

China is hitting us with the Death By A Thousand Cuts method.

WE are being softened up economically, culturally, physically etc. How many illegal aliens, maybe 40 million??? have entered America and are welcomed with free money, free food, free medical care, etc etc etc. Our national debt is atrocious.

What does it take to fight a war? Lots of things, the MOST IMPORTANT of which is MONEY. Soon we won't be able to finance a bag of popcorn.

IMO my best guess is that china has bribed and blackmailed every.single.one of the political elite and those people are dancing to the tune of china.
