    Biden is a moron and this guy is too. Why in the hell would you support a war that could likely turn into WWIII then turn around and cut US oil production plans, and shrink the navy, and sell off our oil reserves? Biden is setting us up for failure in the world stage. It’s absolutely moronic. I would even say insanity has a role in all this.

    Diesel is going to be the next Bitcoin because of moronic policies Biden is making. When this all blows up as we all know it will fuels are not going to be accessible.

    China and Russia are buddies, China will try and take Taiwan, China has brokered peace deals with Iran and Saudi, China will be favored by oil countries. If war breaks out major oil countries will side with the side that will use their products. We will be shorted the needed energy to fight a war and the need equipment now as well. Biden is a complete and utter incompetent moron.

    We cannot stop China from taking Taiwan (which is theirs to begin with BTW) because it is too close to the Chinese coast. Beyond that, presidents come and go. The Navy sticks around.

    Taiwan is not chinas, they got their independence and China wants to take it away again. It was chinas originally but they are an independent country right now. They have their own elections, their own president, they have their own economy, their own military. They are not Chinese.

    They are not an independent country. The US does not recognize them as a country and has no formal diplomatic relations with them.

    "The United States approach to Taiwan has remained consistent across decades and administrations. The United States has a longstanding one China policy, which is guided by the Taiwan Relations Act, the three U.S.-China Joint Communiques, and the Six Assurances. We oppose any unilateral changes to the status quo from either side; we do not support Taiwan independence; and we expect cross-Strait differences to be resolved by peaceful means." https://www.state.gov/u-s-relations-with-taiwan/

    Anyway, we would be in range of mainland china shore batteries if we were to try to liberate them in an invasion by China. Our forces would be shattered. a nuclear war would be the only way we could stop China if they really want to take it.

    True. But we can make it costly. China thinks they are going to get a turn key chip industry. What they are going to get is rubble.
    And depending on if we have a Republican or Democrat president, we will turn Chinese cargo ships back to sea, as they may (likely) has missiles systems in the outside containers.
    They are Mandarin Chinese, not Han. Thus they are less human creatures like whites. Han Chinese are the “real human race” according to the Chinese Han Communist Party.

    Taiwan is a free and independent entity. Just ask someone that lives there. And the people that live live there have the only opinion that counts.

    So know you are arguing that your statement you made is incorrect. Nothing further to see from you I guess.

    Are you only pretending to miss the sarcasm, or did you really miss it?
