Not “the US”....Libs forcing manufacturing out of the country, and selling tech to the Red Chinese.

“China’s Growing Nuclear Arsenal Is A Bigger Threat Than A Spy Balloon, And The U.S. Helped Make It Possible”

But China doesn’t have Putin, so they CANNOT be threat to all things Western. So why worry about them?

The CCP doesn’t care as long as other countries are just as miserable and more than they are. See [Pandemic, Coronavirus ] for the most recent example.

Think Loral. Bottom line is we created a monster. The US never needed China. Corporate America did. Lured us in with a billion potential customers and took the jobs instead. They’re pretty smart.

Yea, but the way we are meddling, China and Putin may decide to “pool their resources”. But seeing as we are the world’s superpower, they would not dare.

Great point! And thanks for reminding me - I had forgotten that we had declared ourselves as the world’s ONLY superpower 30+ years ago, and therefore we are INVINCIBLE and even Russian/Chinese nukes will disintegrate before hitting US cities.

So, no need to worry - we’re safe! We’re so safe that we can replace our soldiers with Drag Queens!

We have to stop using China as a trading partner, it’s all take take take from them, with no reciprocation. And what they don’t acquire legally, they steal.
Has to stop.

What “libs” forced manufacturing out of the country?

Libs like G H W Bush and family? The Rockefellers? The Koch family? Buffett? All of Wall Street?

The transfer of factories to China was advocated as early as 1972 to break the power of the Unions in the US. Which party do you think was behind that?

“Nuclear Arsenal Is A Bigger Threat Than A Spy Balloon”

Well, in one way, it is not, since the nuclear arsenal will never be used, and the spy balloon already has been used.

Why do you think that? I am curious.

Never forget that YOUR federal gov sold out your manufacturing to make a country of 3rd world peasants your near-peer and greatest opponent…. Then, ~25 years after that, they gave them a bunch of your missile tech.

Yeah, sorry, how could I forget him and Kissinger selling us out?

Ostensibly to counter the USSR but the covert plan was to do the bidding of the emerging multi-nationals who needed to cut mfg costs.

“Why do you think that?”

Because a nuclear arsenal becomes completely worthless the second you use it, in the modern world. It only has value if you don’t use it, but everyone thinks you are willing to.
