Meet the Press takes over the NBC News Washington Bureau to stage a full-day war game between the U.S. and China.
In our season finale of Meet the Press Reports, we put together remarkable war games simulation of how the U.S might react if China invaded Taiwan. The national security think tank, Center for a New American Security, convened two teams and developed a hypothetical scenario in the year 2027.

The whole world would be set back big time in tech manufacturing. Good thing I have a bunch of Intel stock lol

There is not much we can do about it but whine. Geography is totally in China's corner. Besides that, if we really piss China off what would Amazon and Wal-Mart do for product? We have put ourselves in the position of needing China more than China needs us, and it was all about making a hell of a lot of money for a very few Americans.
