    Afaik the semiconductor argument is a bit outdated. It would be very expensive to switch production out of Taiwan but you know what would be more expensive? Hot conflict with China which would be unavoidable if they invade Taiwan.

    The economic damage would be brutal to the point where it’s actually the biggest deterant and that’s why we should trade more with China imo.
