Since nobody has used nuclear weapons since 1945, it is impossible to predict outcomes. Anything is possible. Best to prevent it.

China is fighting a proxy war with the U.S., in Ukraine. China buys Russian oil, sells them anything they need. We focus on Russia….and China gets stronger.

Russia did not use nukes when they were defeated at Kiev, Kharkov, on the Dnieper. My guess is, they won’t, unless Putin decides his own power is at risk.

The best outcome would be an exhausted peace, with nobody defeated.

Regarding the question will the US respond with nukes if Russia uses one on Ukraine; I hope we never find out cause I'm not sure he's right either!!

Our problem with China has a lot of angles. Frankly, I think the Chinese are best off by simply sitting back and letting us destroy our selves. A country teaching it's 5,6 and 7 or 8 year old's about gender and pronouns as opposed to reading, writing and Math; and graduates Social Justice Warriors as opposed to engineers ain't much of a threat in the long run. I think the US will pick a fight by provocation.

I expect China would get taken out En Passant if Russia and the US started it first. "If one flies, they all fly."

I don't think I'll be getting an answer to my email to Mearsheimer any time soon. It appears he's on a tour of Europe expounding his views. Just found another one I'm not through entirely yet. A debate and posted about 7 ours ago...
