It seems that the great majority of foreign policy experts, of politicians, and of American voters find that unacceptable though.
And *that* is why we're pivoting to great power competition, which is why, as @mattyglesias puts it, we're building more boats. 17/18
Anyway, it's a good podcast, worth a listen, @EmmaMAshford is smart and sharp, I just wish she had given the other side a bit more of a friendly airing, or @mattyglesias had brought on someone to argue the point (e.g. @ConsWahoo who sure does love ships).

Two reasons. 1) that is what we tried for the last 30 years and it clearly didn't work. This is why the events in Hong Kong spurred such a radical shift in thinking - they were clear evidence of the not-working-ness of engagement.
Well put. I have generally enjoyed their foreign policy podcasts (particularly on the Middle East), though I disagreed with some of the stuff in this one about great power competition and decoupling.
I thought it was especially funny because Matt’s books whole framing was “we need more people in order to compete with China.”
The biggest problem with Option 1 has always been the fact that the US doesn't have an absolute veto on Japanese and RoK nuclear weapons programs. If they're sufficiently terrified of China, and we aren't there to help them, they'll damn well get nukes -> Op 2 by default.
was just going to post this. Unless the US is willing to go full Molotov-Ribbentrop and sell Taiwan to the PRC in the dead of night (and we couldn't, and we shouldn't), any sort of gradual option 1 just puts the nukes back on the table. Japan and SK are both paranuclear today.
