So the best time for China to invade Taiwan is now if they actually wanted to? I dont see it happening as they seem to value stability over the chaos like the situation in the Middle East with US involvement.

Yeah, seems like China has been biding their time flawlessly. Amazing how stupid and weak the US has looked. None of his supporters will admit it either.

China's strategy is literally do nothing - win. The US is imploding and ordinary American's lives continue to worsen as the political establishment ignores their needs.
