 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
In the days up to and after Biden's inauguration - China laid down the challenge and openly violated South Sea Boundaries and warned of opening fire on any and all vessels in the region... The Biden strategy - once openly challenged by China regarding Taiwan - was to also quite openly shutdown our Military and introduce a "Thought Police Tribunal" and put in an incentive based Military Political Police system.... Sound a bit like the actions seen in Russia and China - because that is exactly what it is.... All wrapped up in a pretty package with a 2020 "woke" red white and blue ribbon on it.... China's strategy is and has been crystal clear - The use of Grey Zone Warfare - here it is... https://www.reuters.com/investigates/sp ... -military/Next Biden's team met with China in Alaska on American soil and began with what could be called a hard red line approach - then began a steady retreat moving that red line further and further back.... China's response was quite frankly to "invade" the Philippines and build Military installations on islands which are part of the Philippines and openly move in over 200 Military vessels and anchor them semi-permanently right smack in the middle of the Philippines.... Why ??? The "Old Shell Game" like at the carnival put a pea under one of three nuts then shuffle them and see if anyone can find the pea.... Biden sent a carrier group down there in early February after sailing around in circles for a few weeks both the Nimitz and Roosevelt followed their openly posted scheduled returns to California by the end of April.... Essentially - tucking tail - leaving the entire region wide open for extreme China Grey Zone Warfare.... So that has been the actual US response Biden's first 100 days - all talk - no resolve - actually exactly what the Chinese wanted - now they are in a position to in Chess Terms - Mate & Check Mate with no resistance at all from the US ! https://www.reuters.com/investigates/se ... hina-army/.

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
The question was how would you respond.

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
Now, Japan would be a different story. That would be the end of the world. China would never try that. Malaysia is a toss-up. The US strategy would be based on an island-by-island analysis of strategic importance to America.

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
You literally don't know anything about national defense or history....
During the Cuban missile crisis the Russians had NO FIRST STIKE capability and blocking them from placement of missiles in Cuba was about keeping them from having any first strike ability.... We had first stike ability to wipe their entire continent off the map at the time.... They had to back down or die - at least that was their assessment should we have used it...
All the major powers have first strike ability now - each with enough power to destroy the Earth two or three times....
The Cold War of the Reagan era - is STILL a great plan - but you would need to first understand it was about OUT SPENDING them on Military power.... To have such a decisive advantage that no one dreamed of starting an offensive action....
Obama - crippled the US military and our ability to dominate the other major powers when he eliminated the F-22 Raptor - costing the AirForce 20 years of research and development and rendering the 250 already built un-maintainable - because of the manner he ended the contracts.... Because of the way he De-Funded all branches of the US military he left us virtually impotent on the modern battlefield...
Biden - now wants to do the same thing - with social programs sucking the funding away for the next decade.... Read the Bi-Partisan Senate Defense report I posted which states we are at the brink of Military bankruptcy - despite the fact that Trump funded our military at unprecedented levels it did not make up for Obama's 8 years of neglect and de-funding....
......
China respects nothing but pure power - the US fleet of carriers is the most badass form of mobile firepower ever devised my modern man - each and every carrier has massive firepower and defense capability - no country could destroy one without it answering with a devastating counter strike of unbelievable conventional and nuclear weaponry...
In short it is currently unchallengeable !
If 3 to 5 were long term dedicated to the South China Seas - China would become a nice soft happy Panda Bear - but without them - they practice their Grey War Tactics at will... FYI - Grey War Tactics are exactly the same as Reagan Cold War Tactics... They wear their opponent down in spending and fear of reprisal... China learned well from the US use of power all those decades....
As to Japan - your absolutely wrong as well - they would not be afraid to take Japan if they were successful with Taiwan and the Philippines - it would fall a decade later using the same Grey War Tactics....
As to the Island by Island tactic - wrong again - once a pussy always a pussy - they would dog walk the entire region in months - especially with Biden in the Oval Office...

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
Hope we never find out who's right. What I told you about the Cuban missile crisis was classified information only divulged to me and me alone, never declassified. The source is now deceased. You either believe me or call me a liar. I don't care. I know what I know.

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
Gigafowl: Why don't you come out from behind your screen name like a real man and defend your posts. You're a cowardly bastard if you don't. Are you ashamed of your posts and your positions? Are you afraid of what others will think of you if they knew who you really were? I like face-to-face communication with a known entity and not some Wizzard of Oz.

He just wants to know your name so he can try to figure some way to get you in trouble since you don't agree with his bullshit. He's proven that before on more than one occasion.

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
You won't buy me shit. You are one soul I have zero desire to ever break bread with, or even shake hands with.
Plenty of people in life I disagree with that I still respect. You aren't on that list and never will be.

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
Answer any of these questions from this video.... Best quote in this video - "you people on the left need to read a history book" ! Or was it when they quoted Regan - "the trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant it is just that they know so much that isn't so" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSYlfWdKwfw

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
Bottom line - China threw pure BS in our faces at the Alaska conference as they herded millions into forced labor camps and put guns to backs of thousands of heads and pulled the trigger in their own country. They accused the US of systemic racism and the Biden administration tucked their tails and just took it.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmmKYmk87RQ

 Re: If China invades Taiwan and you were president...
Better question --- if someone invaded a ballot recount and you were President what would you do ???
Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America
05/31/21
"BREAKING: Alarm Went Off at Secure Building in Fulton County Georgia Where Ballots Are Kept – Building Found Wide Open”
Great work is being done in Georgia revealing the Election Fraud of the 2020 Presidential Election. But, we must not allow ANYONE to compromise these ballots by leaving the building unsecured, which was done late Friday. Republicans and Patriots must protect this site and the Absentee Ballots. The Left talks about election security but they do not practice what they preach because they are afraid of what might be found. Fulton County Leadership—do the right thing and protect these ballots. Our Country is at stake!
