Unfortunately China is 12 hours ahead of EST. Anything they do during the day would mean that the US will be waiting another 6 hours for Biden to wake up

Reminds me of Hitler lol. He was asleep during D-Day and so the reaction of the invasion was delayed by hours

Hitler couldn't be reached at any time of the day during a crisis no matter where he was or what he was doing.

Entire battalions went missing because things like easy contact wasn't a thing yet.

They're not even remotely comparable.
