WATCH TONIGHT: After Russia invaded Ukraine, it raised an important question: How might the U.S. respond if China were to invade Taiwan? We staged a war game with @CNASdc experts and members of Congress to help find out. Watch it unfold tonight on Meet the Press Reports. pic.twitter.com/b6RfhWcZSp

Saw a bit of this thing and was not impressed. I know it was done for a quick "news grabbing" clip on the evening news but the scenario didn't seem plausible.

Surprise amphibious and air assaults on the Taiwanese mainland along with a massive missile barrage on Taipei.  Soon after we see strikes on Guam and Okinawa.

The US responds with attacks on Chinese ports!  A big air battle happens over Taiwan and the clip ends.

Look forward to seeing what others think.
