BEIJING: China's Defense Ministry said the navy's only entirely home-built aircraft is carrying out sea trials to test weapons and equipment and enhance training of the crew.

In the early 1990s, I said that a lot of our youth would die
due to our policies building up China.

That bill is coming due.

Our kids won’t be the only ones either.

There are great big dark storm clouds building folks.

Wouldn’t it be great if it sinks?

Too much to ask I guess.

The deep state, the Democrats, open borders, the left, Soros, Hollywood adrenochrome weirdos, Fake news, the wolves in sheep’s clothing... Politically correct academia...The Don Lemons and Rachel Maddows of the world would not permit it, and maybe it’s too late anyway.. But in all honesty, we should be at war with China right now. It will never get better. It will happen someday anyway, and maybe if someone had the balls to take the bull by the horns we may have stood a chance.

U.S. Just needs to home port 2-3 new destroyers, anti-submarine planes and make port calls with subs and aircraft carriers once in a while.

Basing a couple of F-35 fighter squadrons, some air-defense systems would also help.

China has been preparing for it. We haven’t.

We are not prepared to dominate as we used to.

These kids out there begging for Communism today. I think
they’ll get their chance. They’re not going to love it.

Communists would have taken care of them in a matter of
hours.

Saw a post earlier today talking about Soros getting a bad
rap, and China behind everything.

With Soros history, he’s a natural for this.

I don’t think China would be that bold. As I told the other
person, I won’t totally discount it, but I doubt China would
pull that brazen a move.

Who knows for sure?
