That would be a first. He was wrong about Biden, Kamala, Putin, Ukraine, and Israel. Not surprising though.

The chances of China invading Taiwan in the next 50 years is as close zero as you can mathematically get.Chinese ‘invasion barges’ spotted on drills for first time
Beijing’s navy exercising huge Normandy landing-style craft could be early warning sign of full-scale Taiwan assault
Taiwan must be nervous. Wonder if trump will defend them like America previously said it would? Certainly not for nothing I would imagine
Jaysis, you're so wildly full of disinformation
Much more likely a naval blockade within 5 years, potentially a PLA enforced no fly zone if it really gets heavy before any repatriation..
Name China's expansionist wars for us then Herodotus...
Why would China rush to action in such a short timeframe?
Probably because Nancy Pelosi wants to sail a cruise in the South China sea!
The US may certainly try and provoke China into a shooting war, but their appetite for that may have waned after Russia/ Ukraine. China has absolutely zero interest in getting into a shootout over Taiwan. In their eyes they are already winning.
Democracy is just a numbers game. Flood a country with citizens and you take it over by default.
The difference in hard and soft power. Not sure I 100% agree with the examples you used but the analogy is right.
You're down so many rabbit holes Frank I doubt you know
Ahh yes the Dynasties. Going going back 2000 years to the Hu's before China was China is embarrassing. 1912 is the earliest you can consider China as "China"
I'd place modern Chinese policy starting with the CCP since the cultural revolution
You are correct. I was giving him as many years as possible to help.
As to whether they're expansionist, is soft power still expansion without literally annexing countries? Depends what the objective of the 100 year plan is. Could be argued they have vassal states, NK, maybe Myanmar now. Maybe the Cookies.
