If there was ever a time to attack Taiwan, it is now, when Trump is in office. He is so weak and so indecisive, has great admiration for dictators and strongmen. The US will do nothing to stop them.
Look at Ukraine and how GOP was successful at blocking or significantly delaying any help.
In 2022 everyone was saying that military industrial complex (MIC) was so strong in US, that Ukraine will be getting anything they want. Apparently MIC lobby is rather weak.
