In that case, I agree with the article. Given that China could defeat the United States militarily and crush us economically inside of one year if they fully committed themselves to that goal, China is a more immediate issue in the short term.

I disagree with this assessment. Ever buy cheap Chinese knock-off stuff from DH Gate? That's the quality of their military equipment. The volume of bodies they have is massive. But there's no way they would beat us in under a year. I don't even think they'd beat us.

If Russia could help anyone they would've helped Syria. Russia is cooked.

It is now about 5 decades, USA got it cheap moving production to China. Now it is the pay time.

And no I don’t agree that China could defeat us militarily. They could definitely screw with our economy though in terrible ways!

Fair enough but then why mention climate change at all? It makes the author sound excessively dismissive.

I’m not at all sure China could defeat the US, much less the whole free world. No one knows what that war would look like
