A Taiwanese Invasion is basically the #1 thing the PLA has been prepping for IIRC Taiwan could still win! It's not a cakewalk either way, but it is in no way an empty threat

You may be overly pessimistic. A successful invasion makes D-Day look like child's play. And Yokosuka isn't too far away... https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/09/25/taiwan-can-win-a-war-with-china/ …

Taiwan could certainly hold out long enough for US forces to arrive. Maybe it could win on its own, maybe not. But most people don't like to gamble with their lives when the status quo is tolerable.

This is my concern. If China makes a play on Taiwan, they may be able to hold out, but not forever. And I doubt the political will would exist in this country to actually join the fray ourselves
