I don't think they are seriously contemplating coming here, at least anytime soon.  They are focused on defense of the SCS and maintaining access to needed external resources to keep their economy moving.  So they will resupply from home without much issue. The furthest critical resupply they need to worry about is oil from the mid east, and they are in the process of mitigating that pressure point.

When you say supply chain to a manufacturing guy we think back past depots. Supply chains stretch well into the larger economy and across multiple countries.

If they are smart they won't fight a war at all. That plays to our strength.  They will figure out the soft power game eventually, and we will have to escalate the trade issues to weaken them.

I'm not convinced we will have the wisdom or will to do that.

You guys are really weird.     Our military is more dominant at this point in time, than Any other military in history.    

I’m not saying that can’t change.    Obviously things are trending in the wrong direction leadership wise.  

I hope the Chicoms aren’t getting all their intel from the clowns of Arfcom.     . They’ll be attacking our fleet and get a Very nasty surprise.

It's better to over estimate an enemy than the opposite.

Ye old missile gap. Lol

Russia has a tremendous advantage over Ukraine, in terms of offensive missiles. How is that working out for them?

Yep.

We were very complacent and they were innovative.

That ugly dude runs the US Health service, it’s a uniformed service but not an armed service. They use Navy Sea Service rank and uniforms but have nothing to do with the military.
