You missed the point; the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The Chinese could well have a plan to sabotage our nation's ability to respond to an invasion of Tiawan but that only helps take pressure off Christians, Conservatives, and Republicans. The smart play if it happens, is to sit it out and tell the Dems, you created the problem you deal with it. If on the other hand a full-blown invasion ever happened, then the smart play would be to defend your own town and ignore whatever DC wanted.
