You are obviously far too much attached onto 80'ies computer war gaming strategies.China has a military of 2 million and Taiwan has a military of 200,000 which means Taiwan would kick their asses
Why?
Because China has to land those 2 million in small groups that will face 200,000 entrenched troops. China lacks the landing craft for a massive invasion.
Taiwan has only 13 beaches suitable for landing and those beaches are surrounded by mountains with passes heavily defended
In addition, China has never fought a modern war especially an amphibious landing. Look at how easily masses of Russian tanks defeated Ukraine (kidding). And Russia was right on their border
Taiwan has antiship missiles, mines, subs, drones to sink any invasion force
Taiwan is a province of China - as such they are as "independent" as any other Chinese province. Even though the majority of the Taiwanese population would prefer to be an independent nation.How far do you think they would go? My guess is that Taiwan sees itself as independent....but is too smart to light that fuse....
You are so funny!Trump will surrender Taiwan in a minute
But Taiwan would kick Chinas ass in a war
Not according to Taiwan!Taiwan is a province of China - as such they are as "independent" as any other Chinese province. Even though the majority of the Taiwanese population would prefer to be an independent nation.
college friend of mine predicted it about 50 years ago---She was fromTrump and the Western world is going to have a serious challenge if and when China attacks Taiwan. It alone could determine Trumps place in history.
Hong Kong was the test balloon and the world failed.

Trump has no stomach for fighting for other countriesYou are so funny!
Trump has no stomach for fighting for other countries
He is an isolationist
OK SkippyYou are obviously far too much attached onto 80'ies computer war gaming strategies.
He is against nation-building. He is about as far from being an isolationist as he can be. He destroyed ISIS in Iraq and Syria and then pulled out almost all our troops. You seem to have forgotten.Trump has no stomach for fighting for other countries
He is an isolationist
Well Chip or Chap,OK Skippy
I have detailed why I think an invasion will fail
How do you envision China successfuly invading Taiwan?

Not according to Taiwan!
Xi is building up the communist military while the obama-biden junta is weakening the US militaryAnd every year, he doesn't invade Taiwan.
Hopefully china will agree to supply our military needs after they invade Taiwan and corner the market on electronicsOur Debt Is Asia's Fortune Cookie
We should spin off these gutless Asian parasites. Give China the right to a Monroe Doctrine in its sphere of influence, which is no way any of our business. If China takes back Taiwan, we can trade with it just the same.
Xi is building up the communist military while the obama-biden junta is weakening the US military
So each year the threat becomes more credible
Hopefully china will agree to supply our military needs after they invade Taiwan and corner the market on electronics
Right?
We pay our military more than china pays its cannon fodderExcept, of course, we spend far more on our military than China does, and we project power all over the world.
We drop bombs, the Chinese build roads. And we wonder why people are starting to like China better.
