Yes. China will respond, but it’s not going to be drastic as people here think. People here taking about killing Pelosi, bombing runways, lolll.

There's no safety in kinetic violence, once the first shot flies out, out go all your perfect plans, especially if it is a hundreds planes pile up.
Have American pilots get shot en masse in their entire career? If some of them not wet their pants, that's a miracle.

Why do people predict war when Xi Jinping and Biden held a phone call just days ago? People probably going to forget about this in one week, and cling on another thing to be faux outraged about. Only when China's defence spending hits 3.0% should it start warmongering, otherwise, it's a joke at only 1.3% of GDP.

Did you get a chance to take a real good lonnnng look at Biden lately?

Because during that call Xi told Biden to call off the visit in as explicit, blunt (rude even), way as Xi has ever spoken to another foreign leader ever. You don’t speak to the President of the USA like that, even if it’s Biden, unless that’s your final warning.

That wasn’t some diplomatic breakthrough, it was a final chance to look the other guy in the eyes and give him your last warning so you can be as sure as can be that the message was received without any distortion or filtering. If that wasn’t enough to convince him to back off, then no amount of words will ever.

There isn't going to be a war. There will be a tense couple of months (well after pelosi leaves) when things aren't normal across the straits. And I would predict pla use this opportunity to normalize deeper intrusion into Taiwan. Dpp can thank pelosi for that.

At the end of the day, this (an unofficial visit by speaker) imo does not really cross a red line. It is a slippery slope, but the huge pushback from china will hopefully calm things down for a couple of years.

They are not going to shoot down pelosi plane or prevent her plane from landing.

Guess Biden saw how the Russian economy was in the shitter, then Putin started the war and now no Russians are complaining about economy anymore.

US going into recession while China is still growing even as China already has a big lead probably confirms for US nationalists that they can never catch up to China economically again. And the population will lose hope, so better to try and strike now rather than wait. So this time it is for real, US is 100% not invading while Pelosi is there (or near, if China chooses to send her away) right now, but this is in preparation for an illegal annexation of Taiwan by the US military later.

Probably the best thing to do is to keep a firm hand and stay high alert. Snap increase military spending to outspend USA and therefore force them to keep pace and strain their economy further. Don't fire the first shot at US territory, but if US fires the first shot by sending military at China, China should be sufficiently prepared to bury the invaders. Normalize Air Force constantly operating above Taiwan island, send freedom of navigation exercises at Guam and Okinawa to show PLA readiness if US tries something.

That theory is not applicable to Utopian States even without considering the mathematical matrix of power gap in between Russia-Ukraine & West-China. People goes there to treat as hotel for entertainment & vacation.
You dont go to US for good economy. You go to US for having a career at OnlyFans with twerking videos. I am very much willing to see Utopia starting a war. Pilizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...i am begging.
