On Monday's broadcast of MSNBC's "Morning Joe," House Armed Services Committee Ranking Member Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA) said that it is "technically true" that China is preparing for war with the U.S. and that China is throwing its weight around globally and "the threat of their military is one aspect of that." But it was "very dangerous and very irresponsible" for 2024 GOP presidential candidate former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley to say so because "it implies that China's getting ready to launch a war with us, and that's not actually what's going on." And a war between the U.S. and China isn't inevitable.
