Republicans get the trifecta (presidency, both houses of Congress) any time in the next half century or so.

We tried something like that in Afghanistan and Iraq. It didn't work out too well.

We beat the hostiles...just failed to reform the nations to are liking. If we did not care about the state of the nations and just bulldozed them...many would be ruined by the end of it.

It doesn't really make sense for the USA to even do.

Russia is trying to steal Ukraine because most of Russia is frozen wasteland where you can't grow food, and Ukraine has some of the most fertile soil in Europe.

China is agitating against Taiwan because they're embarrassed a tiny little island claims the right to rule them and is also vastly wealthier per capita because it embraced a western style economy rather than building riches for the Emperor on the backs of half a billion shit covered peasants.

Where would the USA think about expanding? Why? It can already project force anywhere in the world at a moment's notice.

More lies from someone clueless about Chinese history. Taiwan was developed by the Japanese colonizers and later hundreds of millions of dollars stolen from the Chinese treasury when the Nationalists fled there. And who started the Chinese Civil War and then politically isolated China for decades with US help, despite losing?

And it's hilarious that you mock mainland China for being agrarian, yet it provides food for countries like Japan which aren't self sufficient. And at least the CCP drastically improved the average life expectancy and average wealth compared to the KMT when they ruled China.
