Honestly if we start a war with China they could just cut off trade with us and give an ultimatum to anyone who does trade with us and they wouldn't need to fire a shot to win
Remembering the time covid started amidst all those dumb tarrifs and all the ammo stores were nearly barren for months because whoops, turns out every primer on every brand of bullet sold in the US comes from China.
Yup the temu home page being replaced with a propoganda poster saying "kill your overlords" would probablly lead to actual American military casualties.
That's really the elephant in the room. The US is deeply reliant on manufacturing in China, and it does not have any viable alternatives. The economy would collapse overnight if a war with China started.
