I don’t really think two countries on completely opposite sides of the world can go to war. They will just nuke each other to shit.
If the US sends its troops to China? They’ll lose because they will have a logistical disadvantage.

It’s basically not possible to have a regular war between two countries so far apart. Intercepting the supply is too easy, cutting off the frontline’s ability to do any push. The only possible way you can even this out is by having a neighbouring country become your base of operations for the war. You still have to do logistics between your home country and that country though. This I think is why the US included Japan in the “Core 5”.

The idea of the US fighting a conventional war with China is absolutely fantastical.
