If we cut our ties with the Chinese the US economy will be destroyed, but the main thing that will happen is that China will starve to death in a week or two. All we gotta do to defeat the Chinese is re-arm the Japs, they would roll through China in a few days like in WWII. Heck we are about the closest thing they have to an actual ally, everybody else assides from N. Korea hate them. And F North Korea too, if they want some we got plenty of ammo laying around. I'm sure we have weapons and bombs sitting around somewhere that we can't even comprehend... Bet they even have a lightsaber !! ( oh man I want 1 of those )
