Hmm has China figured out how to neutralize our subs, each of which could obliterate them in an afternoon? If China nukes the US we are going to nuke them back and they know this. Just rhetoric I think.

I seen ex potus Trump going on about China last night with his pants on backwards, so there was that.
Aye right they done it to themselves so as not to raise suspicion.
What complete and utter lunacy.

"The number of China's nuclear warheads must reach the quantity that makes U.S. elites shiver should they entertain the idea of engaging in a military confrontation with China."
The current number of Nukes held by all sides makes any reasonable person shiver at the thought of military confrontation with China , increasing their stockpile of Nukes will not change the fact there will be no winners in a Nuclear exchange.
No point worrying about it if there's nothing you can do about it.
They would sure use it as leverage though.

I don't see China destroying the same peeps that owe them monies.
The bankers would never let them make that mess for a start.
It might still be a M.A.D world but you simply cannot get blood out an irradiated stone.
Why would they launch an attack that they could not defend against.

As soon as China launches their nuke, it'll fall all to pieces.Both literally ad figuratively.
China has a no first strike policy and a victim mentality.
It absolutely won't launch until after America has launched. That way it believes that history will see it as the victim.
China has a no first strike policy and a victim mentality.
It absolutely will not launch its missiles until the entire rest of the world can see America's are already in the air.
In fact it's entirely that China might simple take it up the rear end and deliberately not retaliate in order to ensure that history records it as being the victim and not the aggressor.
You need to understand how China thinks. It like to strut around in big boy pants making big statements and issuing big threats, but behind al of that it sincerely believes that it's the victim of foreign imperialism, and it wants history to see things this way as well.
It's why domestically they make a great deal out of the resistance against Japan in WWII, but internationally they do the exact opposite.
