He's high as a kite if he thinks his forces will ever be able to take Taiwan, especially if the US decides to dump money into defense of it like we have Ukraine
If Dems are in charge when this happens, they will abandon Taiwan

They don’t need to invade. All they have to do is blockade them. He can take that island by sitting there and not firing a shot. It would be over in months.

I sort of agree but why not wait and watch the west rot itself from within in the meantime?

If he were smart, he'd take it NOW. Joe isn't going to lift a finger against his masters.

Makes sense, now that China is wrapping up its conquest of the US.

If the Dems are still in power in 2027 we'll probably help China invade.

Taiwan needs to go all Swiss Army style in its military.
In 2003, the population of Switzerland was around 8 million. At times, when the Swiss population was in the four million range, they could field half a million trained and well armed men in a matter of hours thanks to the fact that troops keep their military arms, ammunition and gear at home.
Taiwan's population is about 24 million.

The reform "Army XXI" was adopted by popular vote in 2003. It replaced the previous model "Army 95", reducing manpower from 400,000 to about 200,000 personnel, 120,000 receiving periodic military training and 80,000 reservists who have completed their total military training requirements.[7]

Xi thinks he can build an invasion force to take Taiwan in 5 years. And no matter how improbable, his yes-men will tell him it’s coming along fine. That’s why this is so dangerous. No matter what, in five years Xi will think, “We got this.” Because if anyone tells him otherwise, that person will be disappeared.
Well Xi has a secret weapon. Someone at the very top of the US military who will warn Xi of anything and everything the US military will do before they even do it!!!! That will give the CCP Taiwan.

Yes, do it now while General Mark Milley is still in a position to warn Xi and the CCP of all US upcoming military actions.

If we get involved in this mess I'll renounce citizenship and move to a country that prioritizes its own infrastructure.

He will have to face some pissed off blue and pick haired trannies. That’s five years from now and our diverse multicultural troops will be a feared force!

Presently under this shite weak idiotic presidency they’d roll in unopposed and any American citizens speaking out against it would be raided by the fricking FBI. Garbage world the leftist Marxists have created.
I’m saying even discounting us being there that it’d be bloody as all frick. You’d be seeing corpses in the Straight of Taiwan everywhere. It’d put the sharks into a feeding frenzy.

Taiwan has plenty of time to develop killer drones with high explosives along with miniature robotic submarines to attack any invading amphibious force.

Xi Jinping will end up being assassinated or overthrown by 2027, with China becoming a more open society.
I left China in 2012 thinking they’d be a free and open society by 2030, and I’m sorry I was naive and it’s just not going to happen. Yes Gen X and Millennials over there are Westernized, so Nixon succeeded on that front, but they also taught our government and corporations how to be absolutely tyrannical to the people.

China would have to carpet bomb the entire island and kill everyone before even landing a boat on the shore to have a shot of invading successfully.
Carpet bombing defeats the entire purpose of the invasion. Russia is not after Ukraine’s infrastructure. China very much is after Taiwan’s though and don’t want to sabotage really any of it. You might see some targeted strikes, but there sure as shite will be no carpet bombing in Taiwan should China invade.
There’s only one strategy to take Taiwan, and it’s brutal as all frick: Zapp Brannigan’s Killbot Strategy being used almost literally:

But really, I don’t mind voicing my doubt as to Xi Dingaling being anywhere near truthful about this. Why in heaven’s would they want to make an actual accurate and truthful announcement like this? IMO the truth is probably closer to their being more or less “ready” right this moment as opposed to this 2027 business. The basis of such a strategy would be to lull folks into a false sense of “aw hell, we got plenty of time ‘til we need to get ready ourselves”.
I mean, he can’t hide an invasion of Taiwan. We’ll know long in advance before he directly attacks them. There would be an absolute shite ton of boats on their southeastern shore if they were about to attack. Plus the Taiwanese have no shortage of spies planted throughout China.
