The US of 2023 is NOT the US of 1942. China is today's US of 1942. They have a huge manufacturing capacity.

Without spending ten to 20 years (at least) in rebuilding America's manufacturing capacity to match China's, the US should just refuse any war with China.

Remember how Germany ended up in their 1941-1945 war with the Soviets? That will be America's future in a war with China.
