What if Ronald Reagan returned today and became president of the United States? In this hypothetical political scenario, he moves to confront communism, beginning with a rapid invasion of Cuba before turning his attention to China—not through a direct military attack, but through economic and geopolitical pressure.

The imagined strategy would realign Russia, challenge China’s Belt and Road Initiative with competing investment, impose sanctions, and encourage companies to leave China. The scenario concludes with political unrest and the possibility of a democratic China. Explore an alternate-history map scenario about Reagan, U.S. foreign policy, China, Russia, communism, and global power shifts.

00:00What if Ronald Reagan returned today? If Reagan returned, he would once again become president of
00:04the U.S. He would see that communism still exists and would decide to destroy it, starting with Cuba,
00:10which he would quickly invade. The rest of the communists are in Asia, but beating China would
00:14be key. However, a direct invasion of China would be impossible. So Reagan would decide to destroy
00:19China using other means. He would first decide to realign Russia, he would give them the territories
00:23they want in Ukraine, and would guarantee them influence over Central Asia. With this, Russia
00:27would remain neutral in any Chinese conflict. Reagan would then decide to destroy the Road
00:32and Belt Initiative. He would heavily invest in African and Asian countries and would offer
00:36better deals than China. With this, the Road and Belt Initiative would slowly collapse, leaving China
00:41isolated. He would sanction China and pay companies to relocate from China to other parts in Asia. This
00:46would cause unemployment and inflation to rise. Finally, he would reveal that CCP politicians are
00:51secretly living in luxury while the rest of the nation is poor. This would cause the people to
00:55rise against the CCP, leading to a democratic China and Reagan's victory.
