It’s quite obvious that a war with China will be the empire’s final war. The only question then becomes, are they willing to nuke the world over it?

This current crop of leadership is very dead set on war with China. I wouldn't be surprised if they start pushing out propaganda exclaiming "nukes aren't that bad! At least we'll be destroying those freedom hating Reds!"

Nukes aren't that bad!

The line they've been going with is "I bet those Russian nukes don't even work anymore."
