columnist and author Josh Rogin stated that the U.S. isn’t ready for a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, “The Chinese have a huge military advantage across the Taiwan Strait that’s growing every day” and we’re not arming Taiwan sufficiently.
Rogin said, [relevant remarks begin around 46:50] “No, we’re not ready and the Taiwanese are not ready and the Japanese are not ready. The Chinese have a huge military advantage across the Taiwan Strait that’s growing every day and they’re becoming more aggressive and more menacing and more threatening every day. And that’s a huge problem. … So, you would think that what we should do is to arm the Taiwanese to the teeth, but we’re not doing that either.
He added, “The idea is that the best way to deter aggression is to have a credible defense and the best way to invite aggression is to look weak and not have a credible defense, and that’s where we are now and that’s what we have to fix.”
