As many as 20 aircraft from China either crossed the median line of the Taiwan Strait or breached the island country’s air defense identification zone.

China doesn’t even have a blue water navy.
An invasion of mainland China would be extremely difficult and costly, but they have no where near the force projection beyond their coast that the US navy does.
A war with China wouldn’t be to take Chinese territory, at least not from a US perspective. It would be to defend Taiwan, which the US would have no problem doing.
The US will just sell Taiwan weapons and training, like Ukraine.
Nah, Taiwan is far too critical to US national security due to the massive number of chips we need from them for all of our military equipment.
We would actually go to full on war over them if needed.
No, we actually defend Taiwan.
