** 03-Aug-2021 World View: Gordon Chang: The end of the CCP?
I've been wondering the same thing.
Gordon Chang suggests that the uncontrolled spread of covid will
bring about the end of the Chinese Communist Party.
I can guarantee with almost certainty that this will NOT happen. The
CCP will do ANYTHING to preserve the CCP and their power. This is not
negotiable.
Instead, they will panic and do something really stupid. The CCP will
attempt to unify the nation by starting a war. They might launch a
war with Taiwan, or they might launch a war with Japan, or with India,
or they might launch their long-planned attack to conquer America "in
one blow."
That's the way the world works.
P.S.: And Gordon Chang is well aware of this.
