Nuclear powers don't really have kinetic wars. I think the only one that happened was a small skirmish between India and Pakistan in 1999. The Kargil War. Proxy wars are more likely. And even more likely than that, would be severe economic sanctions. Which in this instance would hit home to many more Americans than an actual war. If the invasion of Taiwan set in motion a series of escalating sanctions and freezes in trade, well that could get much worse than people think. A chain reaction of unseen consequences.
