China would not be doing this under a Trump Administration.

He'll retaliate by bombing Taiwan.

Remember when Trump sent two carrier groups to the South China Sea?

One of CCP’s aircraft carriers was bought under pretext of being converted to a floating casino, then, SURPRISE! They lied and made it into an aircraft carrier.

They are running down the Taiwanese air force. Every time China violates their airspace, they have to scramble interceptors to chase them off. These then need to be maintained, fueled, parts replaced, pilots rested, etc. If they don't intercept, China gets free reign in the air to scout out their terrain/emplacements/etc. If they turn on the air defense system or more tracking systems, China gets to find out where they are for later. China can afford to it, since both they and Taiwan know that Taiwan can't hold for long if they actually response to these acts of war with war.

Honestly, might be best to put full coverage dead man switch bombs around the country and tell China they can have Taiwan when the radioactivity dies down.

I'm sure the CCP will respect their pronouns.

I initially gave it a week before China invaded Taiwan outright.

Still have about three days before I have to admit I was wrong and consider whether to give it a month or a year.

Here is Chyna’s opportunity....this time frame when Joepedo is “in charge”.

This is Taiwan’s worst nightmare.

Hey CCP, Lockheed would like a word. Can they make anything without stealing tech from the west? Like the bullet train they stole from Japan but forgot to steel the brake plans so it crashed!

They need to not use AD systems. They are trying to intimidate but also probe their AD systems.

Can go two ways. Either joe is bought and paid for by the PRC and we'll lose all diplomatic progress, or the war mongering left will pounce on the oppurtunity to "lead the nation in a time of war"

You hit the nail. I think CCP will be disappointed the $1.5billion investment to Hunter and Jim will be going to waste. Joe has no power. He does not want to do any hard work to fix anything. Trump fixed Middle East, so the military industrial complex will shift its sand box to east Asia. I will just heat up the popcorn and watch.

Fuck this. I'm flying my Taiwan flag upside-down, too.

I’m starting to think, just with the way this is being covered, that China will back down to make Biden appear strong. Taiwan is important but China doesn’t NEED Taiwan. Not at the moment, anyway. Then again, we saw what they did to Hong Kong.

Well if Taiwan is fielding F-16's and even mediocre sam sites, then they can deal with the chinese air force.

Ugh, they're really going to try something, huh? If Trump was still in power Taiwan would be unloading a few dozen THAAD and Patriots right now. At least We have 3 carrier groups in the Pacific, more than enough to destroy the Chinese navy. Not to mention Whatever the UK and France has in the Pacific.
