> china will likely directly declare War and Attack.

This is the American dream.

But no, China is not that stupid. Sure, they want Taiwan back, but they will not declare war and create global instability right in their backyard. Only stupid people would do this, and the Chinese are not stupid. They are in a marathon. They see the goal in 30, 50, 100 years. They will not give this gift to the American government.

We thought the US was not stupid, and then we elected Trump.

Never underestimate emotional motivations.

P.S., not saying that China will attack Taiwan, just not ruling it out.
