the USA can handle both China and Russia, both are distinctly different in terms of handling militarilly. Russia will primarilly be a land war and China will be a naval war. Currently Russian military power is being ground down in Ukraine. in its current state in a conventional war with NATO , Russia will get its ass kicked hard. Now CHina is different since war with China will entail a CHinese invasion of Taiwan, this means the USN will be heavilly involved in defending Taiwan at sea and the Taiwanese army defending its land. I think the current US gov policy vs. Russia and China are currently correct, Russian military power is being ground down in Ukraine without US boots on the ground in Ukraine and direct war with Russia. meanwhile the Chinese economy is tanking and the Chinese of wary of war with the USA, the Chinese peacock all the time that they will go to war with teh USA but never follow thru since they are smart enough to realize they will lose a war with the USA and possibly collapse CCP control of China in the aftermath. and its not only military but also economic that China is vulnerable, imagine war wiht USA means China is isolated economically from the world means, blockade of its ports, confiscation of assets from the USA and its allies, total sanctions of China, this will cause a collapse of the CHinese economy and induce mass unrest .
