Yes............ After one of our last discussions I looked it up as I saw a CCP propagandist mentioning it.....
He was half right, we did win, & they did this or that, but nothing actually changed.....
It was/is tantamount to cleaning up the cobweb but leaving the spider..........
"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
ok, you are welcome to call him what you like, it was pointing out the obvious......

lol........ They better start a little smaller, invade New Zealand & Ireland & see how it goes...
Are you getting eager for war... I'm not.. That should be the last resort, although it may be inevitable..
Have you heard about Thucydide's Trap???
The term describes the theory that when a great power's position as hegemon is threatened by an emerging power, there is a significant likelihood of war between the two powers.[1][2] Or in coiner Graham Allison's words:
Thucydide's Trap refers to the natural, inevitable discombobulation that occurs when a rising power threatens to displace a ruling power...[and] when a rising power threatens to displace a ruling power, the resulting structural stress makes a violent clash the rule, not the exception.[8]
As evidence of this, Allison points to a case study by the Harvard University Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs that he headed, which found that among the 16 historical instances of an emerging power rivaling a ruling power, 12 ended in war.[3][9]
If you are familiar, or get a chance to look into it I would appreciate your opinion/thoughts/conclusions on it, thanks....

China–United States relations
Further information: China–United States relations
The term is primarily used and was coined in relation to a potential military conflict between the United States and the People's Republic of China.[2] Xi Jinping, the paramount leader of China, has himself referenced the term, cautioning that: "We all need to work together to avoid the Thucydides trap—destructive tensions between an emerging power and established powers…Our aim is to foster a new model of major country relations".[14] The term gained further influence in 2018 as a result of a surge in US-Chinese tensions after US President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on almost half of China’s exports to the US, resulting in a tit-for-tat series of economic escalations.[2][15]
Scholars have noted that there are a number of pressing issues the two nations are at odds over that increase the likelihood of the two powers falling into the Thucydides trap, including the de facto independence of Taiwan, China’s digital policing and its use of cyber espionage, differing policies towards North Korea, China's increased naval presence in the Pacific and its claims over the South China Sea, and human rights in Xianjiang, Tibet, and Hong Kong.[1][13][15][16] Some also point to the consolidation of power by Chinese Communist Party general secretary Xi Jinping, supposedly irreconcilable differences in values, and the trade deficit as further evidence the countries may be slipping into the Thucydides trap.[15][17]

^ never heard the term -but cool.
so the moral is pick your battles, and hopefully don't battle, but talk and negotiate where possible.
Which is what the Rubio's of this world never want to do
China Joe.
Don't be afraid to see what you see
