Will China and US go to war over Taiwan?

[888theGreat]

I think US would lose too much taking on China over Taiwan

yes , Biden needs war because of economy

no , US just can't because stores would be empty and we would have a collapse

I don't know I'm going to guess yes on this one since war makes big money.

Unlikely. It's an election year in China so it's likely just posturing.

He wants to look strong to be reappointed. A show of force would be a plus for him. China appoints people , not elects people. You liberals always get that confused. Like Democratic primaries in US. The people don't vote for who they want. DNC appoints who they want.

DNC doesn't appoint who they want. The far right fake news likes to brainwash people with this disinformation but in real life the "superdelegates" always side with the delegates, which are determined by popular vote. And even that only applies to the presidency - the rest of the public offices are determined strictly by popular vote.

As for China appointing instead of electing it is a moot point. As you conceded he wants to look strong for an "appointment year," if you need to hear those words. But the thing I said that was relevant to your question was that it was still just a look. I know its hard for you far right wingers to just take an answer to your question without throwing a blubbering hissy fit over nuance, but do try, eh? It will limit the uneccisary interactions between left and right and thus result in more peace.
