If both sides agreed to no nuclear war, no

If nuclear war happened, then we all know the world is over anyways so its pointless.

China would have to have unfettered access to the entire Pacific, which would require the subjugation of Japan, Hawaii, The Phillipines, Guam, etc. By the time China exerted that level of expense, the US would already have defense plans in place, the entire populace would be anticipating the coming invasion, and a draft would have been in place already and millions of (reserve) troops trained.

There is a reason why the USA spans the entire width of North America, its to deter invasions.

Now if Russia and China tag teamed the US from the West and East (which would require Europe to basically collapse or be taken over by Russia), then it might be theoretically possible for a successful invasion to take place.

The logic is basically the same on the flip side of the coin, the US can't reasonably invade China in a traditional war that wouldn't just be wholesale slaughter of innocents or use of banned weapons. It'd have to be a coordinated effort between the US, Russia, a unified Korea, India, basically all of China's neighbors.

It's a pointless thought exercise because it can't happen and have the world be in anything recognizable
