I'm sure the war gaming communities both in the world's professional militaries and pundit gaming circles are working current politics into the prospects for Taiwan. If China is going to seize Taiwan they're going to want to have a large installed second strike capability in place. China is supposedly developing a nuclear capability to rival those of U.S.A. and Russia. Might be one reason they have not tried to suppress N. Korea's nuclear development. On the "Past as Prologue" subject, I'm wondering if we can actually form a picture of TRMP activity based on his previous term: ?More and different varied chaos? ?More organized swing to the right? ?More divergence between American extremes? ?New political parties?
