Would Russia, Thailand, Myanmar and Vietnam cooperate? Will Brazil? I think there would be a few holes.

Now, let’s consider the Chinese response (because there will be one...): would the USA be able to survive without pharmaceutical ingredients, rare earths, consumer electronics, and all the single-source China supply chains that foreign companies have built in pursuit of the lowest possible cost (and without regard to risk)? Will the American people say, “to hell with my 401k, we need to support Taiwan”?

I do not personally want to see the CCP impose its will in Taiwan, but I do not see this ending well.
