does anyone else remember the jackasses confidently stating “china would never go to war with us, we’re their best customer.
I am sure that the Russkies will just hand it over...not.
Trump’s had over three years to add judges, military experts (who can do more than ‘give speeches to Arabs’) and shore up military defense budgets.
China needs to remember the same press that thinks we’re weak, thought Trump was poor compared to Romney.... (Until Trump released data showing ONE store he owned was worth more than everything Romney owned ...)
So if I was the Chinese I would play this one smart and focus on China - NOT on the US) Pull back - there’s plenty of time to find a better path.
The democrats might do it for them.
Me either i could see them quicky assembling a team to go in and get trump out as soon as the carrier got hit
There are things we have that China doesn’t know about.
There are things we have that WE don’t know about.
It won’t be short no matter what happens.
It will have unforeseen consequences no matter what happens.
Glad to see we no longer turn a blind eye. Now let’s isolate them economically and bring them to their knees.
Very bad for them if they try. Far worse for them if they succeed.
Their only hope is our perfumed prince generals which we would need to fire first in the event we actually need a working military.
If The commies Ever manage to “blow up a USA aircraft carrier” Beijing will be a pile of smoldering rubble.
A dictator like Xi will always seek distraction and external conflict when their own position is weakened internally. Better to focus the masses on external “threats” than internal dysfunction.
Xi chose the wrong path with the virus and he has actively worked to alienate the world since. He owns the countries that voted with him in the UN last week, but it is not a very impressive list and his irrational behavior has made an Asian NATO alliance much more likely.
Only to get hit back by 24 or more Trident D5 SLBMs!
The USN would sink their navy in short order.
Then blockade their coasts. No oil, food or products in or out.
They wouldn’t last a month.
They really know how to make friends. Bunch of stupid, arrogant only-children.
From what I just read, China will not only have to deal with us, but India, Japan and possibly Australia as well participating in this exercise
I still believe there is an understanding between the US and Russia that Russia would be on our side if it came to blows.
Welcome to FreeRepublic.
In the aftermath of St. John's Church, Milley and Esper made it clear where the top military brass stand.
...Beijing will be a pile of smoldering rubble.

Our POTUS is showing his discipline. He is being poked and prodded from all sides that hope he takes the bait so they can scream “unstable warmonger”.
and Trump will not Shoot back ? You better have a very deep hole to hide in
