U.S won't fight a direct war with any nuclear power.
But, if U.S. (under its neocon neolib) can fight Russia in a proxy war today until last Ukrainian. U.S. will fight China in a proxy war until last Taiwanese.
In the end, the sufferers are Ukrainians and Taiwanese. I hope Taiwanese understands U.S. provocation. It's not about Taiwan, it's about China.

At this point, Taiwan is just like America was in 1800. Except, they have far better reasons to want to remain separate.
by china. This is the stand made by the strategists of our old generation in 1970s-1980s. I am with this stand. I have been talking about Taiwan many times here in the past 10+ years. But seems nobody here really understand China/taiwan, just like nobody here really understand Russia/Ukraine.
Independence supporters I referred to are Taiwan independence supporters. I am against them. They are crazy.

But to be clear, this whole thing never would have occurred if Pelosi stayed out of foreign policy, and THAT never would have occurred if we had an actual POTUS who was in charge and leading.

We’d own the sea and sky within hours. They have a large active duty force, but they’re not combat tested.

12 aircraft carriers, proven technology, an Army that can be anywhere in the world within 18 hours…
China has a conscript military, 1 aircraft carrier (that’s a piece of shit). While their military is large, how will they deploy their troops if we own the air and the sea?
3 deployed in Pacific. USS Roosevelt, USS Reagan and USS Nimitz. All are pretty old. USS Nimiz is over half century old. All 3 Chinese aircraft carriers are pretty new.
China military is volunteer military. WTF you got this conscript information? It's not even wrong, it's beyond ignorant.
“Technically, those 18–22 years of age enter selective compulsory military service, with a 24-month service obligation. In reality, numbers of registering personnel are enough to support all military posts in China, creating so-called "volunteer conscription".”
Yeah, that sounds like an “all volunteer” military to me. And China has one operational old Soviet aircraft carrier. Like others said, the other one is a helo carrier. Just shut the fuck up. You’re a treasonous piece of shit who iI’d gladly smack.
One of their two operational carriers is a former Soviet piece of crap that was purchased by a gambling outfit in Macao before Beijing took it. It’s not for fixed-wing aircraft.
We have a whole new class of supercarriers - the Ford class - coming off the line.
You’re an ignorant putz.
A fake expert is indeed fake.
3 Chinese carriers:
Liaoning: 24 jets
Shandong: 36 or 26 jets
Fujian: 40 jets
And China is still using old Soviet “arched deck” technology. Those carriers would be rendered ineffective within hours. Do you honestly think they match up with us? Are you sucking Xi’s dick too?

For some reason, they might perceive that as weakness.
Seems crazy, I know.
Why would they start a war they can’t win? Why would they destroy their economy?
Same goes for Russia. Putin knows he can’t beat us militarily. Both he and Xi are big talking pussies

Br careful what you wish for. I realize that the "experts" on TV aren't as accomplished as the "experts" on this board, but, from what I have read and heard, the U.S. is not prepared. We are stretched thin. Numbers are down. This administration is not the ones to be saber rattling.
While we are coming off the GWOT, we’re still capable of deploying anywhere in the world within 18 hours. We have the strongest and most lethal military in the history of the world and I’m not even talking about nukes. We were successful in Iraq and Afghanistan on the battlefield, but our military was built to destroy either Russia or China if need be. Never underestimate our global military capabilities.

I have no expertise in these matters and neither does anyone else on this board. I do know that we left Afghanistan in disgrace , not to mention all the equipment we left our enemy. Whose decision was that? Twenty-six Navy Seals have been dismissed for not getting that all holy jab. Recruitment numbers are way down. We are sending so much to Ukraine that we are leaving our own selves short. And, who around here is even keeping track of the money and equipment sent to Ukraine? We have Generals more interested in eliminating some kind of white nationalism from our troops and these same Generals, at the top mind you, encourage CRT at our academies. A course on BLM apparently is taught at the AF academy. The AF higher ups are apparently also way into drag queen shows at their base. Does this sound like a military that is ready for China/Russia/NK? And the simulated war games between USA and China? How do you think those turn out? Not sure this WH and its military leaders know how to win a war. China has been building their military. We have been working on pronouns. It's easy for someone with no skin in the game to rah rah our military into a conflict in Ukraine and a full out war with China/Russia. Do you trust the war machine, "making war just for fun"? I hope I am wrong if the worst happens.
Trust me, I like Fox, but some of them have gone off the deep end over there. I treat Fox like I do MSNBC and CNN. There are far better news sources and the ones I follow say nothing about the USA being unprepared to fight China or Russia if need be. Now, don't get me wrong...I don't want a war with either of them, but if it did happen, we'd come out on top rather easily. Neither would use nukes as that would most assuredly be mutual destruction. In a "conventional" war, we would dominate them. There's no doubt about that. We spend in excess of 600 billion on defense. That's more than the next 7 countries on the top militaries list.
All the other shit...CRT, Trannies...I don't give a fuck about that. In fact if they can fly, shoot, or fight...I'm OK with it.
Experts on this site? There are a few on here that I trust when it comes to defense/military and foreign policy.

been there done that. Been shot and guess what? It hurts. I've seen shit that would make you piss your pants, literally, so stop with the "war monger" insinuation. I'm talking about our military strength and I'm right. Get your information from reliable sources and stop visiting InfoWars and all of the right wing extremist sites, dummy.
