Is There a Strategy for Defeating Taiwan?

I worry a little bit that we are gung ho about Taiwan without having a particularly good strategy for the eventuality of a crisis. And there's no question that US politicians, including the former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, acted in the visits as if Taiwan is an independent country. I spent enough time in Beijing to see why the Chinese leadership think there's a deviation from the status quo going on. We're not really credibly able to deter China at the moment. Let's just talk hypothetically about next year if we get into that situation. That's my biggest short run concern.
