Nineteen years ago, America suffered the most costly attack in its history. In 9/11’s aftermath, the official assessment was that it succeeded due to our “failure of imagination.” Today, we face far more acute threats than those once posed by al Qaeda and the question is: Will we fail to address them, too – with vastly worse consequences?
Fortunately, it takes no imagination today to recognize the Chinese Communist Party as a present and growing danger. It’s now blindingly obvious that the CCP has long used “unrestricted warfare” techniques to subvert, undermine, displace – and, if necessary, destroy – the USA.
The Wall Street Journal contends that both President Trump and Vice President Biden would be tough on China. Seems unlikely. But our times certainly require a robust and truly bipartisan opposition to the PRC – and a mandate to our next Commander-in-Chief to deliver one.
