This narrative doesn't pass the smell test. There is simply no way China believed we were going to attack them and start the biggest world war of all time. Preposterous.
The only people who could talk themselves into such foolishness would have been those who had such seething hatred for Trump's disruptive presence that they can't think straight.
I promise someone in China can think straight. They were not fearing a first strike from the US. Come on.
Trump would never have done such a thing. Despite it being political suicide for him and the GOP forever, he would have needed Congressional approval to start a thermonuclear war. Talk about impeachments.
This theory reeks of Milley and Pelosi trying to rationalize their treasonous attempts to (1) very publicly scare voters into thinking Trump was impetuous and needed to be separated from the nuclear launch codes, and then (2) promising to take China's side if we indeed got in a war with China.
Also, to make any sense of such a theory, Milley would need to explain why he didn't stop at "hey, I would know, and we aren't preparing to attack China." Instead he went the even more treasonous step by promising to tell China our military plans in the event of war with China. There is no conceivable or believable rationale for that.
