  • TOUGH, yes. War, no. That's the short answer to the headline question
  • the most important security, economic and political concern for Asia this decade. The full answer is far more complicated, of course
  • but thankfully far less worrisome than it would have been if Donald Trump weren't president of the United States.

The article from MSN discusses the potential for conflict between the United States and China, focusing on former President Donald Trump's approach to foreign policy with China. It explores Trump's history of tough rhetoric and actions against China, including trade wars, his stance on Taiwan, and his comments on the South China Sea disputes. The piece speculates on whether Trump, if re-elected, would escalate tensions to the point of military confrontation, given his past behavior and statements. It also mentions the broader geopolitical context, including China's growing military assertiveness and the strategic competition between the two superpowers. The article does not confirm any war plans but raises questions about the future of U.S.-China relations under a Trump presidency, highlighting the unpredictability and the potential for increased friction.
