They got no Navy. Being a Marine. Its hard to say this but the Navy will save our *** in a Chinese conflict. We are in a unique geographical location that offers us water protection on both coasts, but our soft underbelly southern border is really wide open for any assault based out of an occupied Mexico. Total long shot "Red Dawn" scenario but our economic power will break China before our military will need to. They need our money, we need their goods...until.we can pull our head out and start up component and IC manufacturing again. It would not take long. Its the supporting components supply chain that is the weak link. Well walk this economic tight rope for years. Cold War 2.0. Soviets are a non issue now. Heck, Germany is going to a Soviet oil pipe line supply so they just signed a deal with the devil. F em, not our problem anymore. Tired of the world sucking the tit of America and then bashing us on the backside.
