Well, yeah, but at least Russia isn’t such a big economic entity as China is, and Russia doesn’t have as big as an army as China, and moreover with how the international situation is looking, no one except Europe (who’s military strength is laughable) is going to align with them because it would also mean economic death for them.
Yeah, the west is becoming rapidly isolated geopolitically and it’s not even self sufficient. I have no idea why anybody would think that US could take on China and come out on top. This further highlights that US regime consists of utter imbeciles.
Nuclear option is of course discussed in Pentagon, and i bet their usual idea of “short victorious war” but with nukes is on the table since some people there probably think along the lines of “Lets strike now, we can shoot down most of their 400 warheads and can survive the rest relatively intact, it’s better than losing hegemony”. This is think is the gist of issue, they are losing it and might decide that nuked world under their heel is better than the multiploar one.

but Russia has thousands more nukes than China
Seriously, China now have maybe around 400 warheads, but 4 years ago it was estimated on 200, and they are building up and Pentagon suspect they will have 1500 by 2035.
