Whoever is elected the next president will have to deal with the same problem: how to avoid war with China while protecting Taiwan.

Chinese President Xi Jinping recently declared the need to ‘comprehensively strengthen training and preparation for war.” This is likely because China is getting ready to invade Taiwan - with one top US admiral testifying Xi Jiping is planning to invade by 2027. .

Another document published by the DOD titled The Ambitious Dragon states that China will invade Taiwan by 2030.

China is beefing up its military big time. Their official defense budget increased by more than 15% over the last few years to more than $220 billion.

Sure, a war anywhere in the world isn’t great, but why would this be such a big deal to the U.S. ? Well, we guaranteed them protection back in 1979 with The Taiwan Relations Act.

In short, if China goes to war with Taiwan, it’s going to war with the United States.
