Watch out Taiwan if Biden’s polls decline this summer
China’s Crisis and the Potential Impact on Biden’s Presidency
There’s a serious major crisis on the foreign policy front, and it’s going to get worse if Joe Biden is trailing in the polls come the summer.
China is facing a dire situation with a low reproduction rate and a government that has made questionable financial decisions. They have invested heavily in empty skyscrapers and ghost cities, leaving their economy in a vulnerable state.
One of China’s systemic problems is their lack of access to modern military technology, which puts them at a disadvantage compared to the United States. As they fall further behind, their desperation grows.

However, China sees a glimmer of hope in Biden’s perceived weakness. If Biden’s poll numbers continue to decline, China may see this as their opportunity to act before a GOP president takes office.
Biden’s conciliatory approach towards Xi Jinping has given China reason to believe that they should make their move sooner rather than later.
But if China invades Taiwan, it could lead to a landslide victory for the GOP in the American election. A conflict or standoff over Taiwan would further complicate Biden’s chances of reelection.
The voters of Taiwan have made it clear that they will not appease China. This defiance has resulted in the election of Vice President Lai Ching-te as the next president, despite Beijing’s warnings.
Voters in Taiwan elected Vice President Lai Ching-te as their next president on Saturday, defying warnings from Beijing not to support a candidate it has called a separatist and a ‘troublemaker.’ The election, which China has described as ‘a choice between war and peace,’ could test recent efforts by Beijing and Washington to repair relations that in recent years have fallen to their lowest point in decades. …
Lai’s victory extends the eight-year rule of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), which is considered the least friendly party to Beijing. Relations between Taiwan and China have deteriorated under President Tsai Ing-wen, who was first elected in 2016 and is limited to two terms. Voters in Taiwan, especially younger ones, were concerned not just with China policy but with economic issues like unemployment, housing costs and income inequality. Lai won with 40% of the vote, compared with 33% for Hou Yu-ih of the main opposition party, the Kuomintang, and 26% for Ko Wen-je, founder of the populist Taiwan People’s Party. Hou and Ko, who both favor closer ties with Beijing, had argued that the DPP’s policies toward China were too confrontational.
With a more confrontational Taiwan and a potentially losing Biden administration, China may seriously consider accelerating their military plans for Taiwan.

What are the potential consequences of a conflict with China for the global economy and how might it impact Biden’s ability to navigate international relations?
Licate an already tense relationship between the United States and China, and could have significant implications for Biden’s presidency.
The United States has long been a strong ally of Taiwan, and any aggression towards the island nation would likely be met with a swift and forceful response. This could potentially lead to a military conflict between the two superpowers, something that Biden would have to handle with great caution and skill.
A military conflict with China would undoubtedly test the strength and capabilities of the Biden administration. How Biden handles this crisis could define his presidency and determine his ability to effectively navigate international relations.
Moreover, a conflict with China could have far-reaching consequences for the United States and the global economy. China is the world’s second-largest economy and a major player in global trade. A military conflict or a deterioration of relations could disrupt supply chains, increase global market volatility, and have negative implications for economic growth.
In addition to the economic impact, a conflict with China could also have implications for other areas of foreign policy. It could strain alliances with other countries in the region, such as Japan and South Korea, who would be directly affected by any military escalation. It could also complicate efforts to address other pressing global issues, such as climate change and nuclear proliferation.
The potential impact of China’s crisis on Biden’s presidency cannot be underestimated. The outcome of any conflict or standoff between the United States and China would have far-reaching consequences not only for Biden’s presidency but also for global stability and the future of international relations.
However, it is important to note that Biden and his administration have shown a strong commitment to addressing the challenges posed by China. They have emphasized the need for a multilateral approach, strengthening alliances, and holding China accountable for its actions concerning human rights, trade practices, and intellectual property theft.
Biden’s administration has also made it clear that they will not back down from defending the United States’ interests and those of its allies. They have expressed support for Taiwan and have reaffirmed the United States’ commitment to its security.
While the situation in China remains uncertain, Biden’s presidency faces a critical test in navigating this crisis and managing the potential impact on the United States and the world. The outcome will depend on his ability to effectively engage with China, rally international support, and protect American interests while also avoiding a catastrophic escalation of tensions.
As the world watches the events unfold in China, it is clear that the stakes are high for Biden and his presidency. How he handles this crisis will shape the trajectory of his administration and have significant implications for the United States and the global community.
