I believe that it's now appropriate to apply Lucan Way and Steven Levitsky's notion of "competitive authoritarianism," as laid out in their book "Competitive Authoritarianism: Hybrid Regimes after the Cold War" (2010, Cambridge University Press), to the United States today.

The problem with China invading Taiwan is that…everybody knows about it.
Land invasions of this scale have always been cloaked in huge secrecy.
But China has broadcast their intentions.
My theory? It’s a cover story for military buildup that’s aimed at a different target.
More in a video soon.
