Lets say China suddenly feels like its losing all trade wars and international business so they decide to fire away all their nuclear missiles cause they got nothing to lose anymore . What are the chances of that happening ?

The chances are very low. The US needs their shite produced in China. Americans are addicted to cheap crap.
More worried about Kim Jong Un's sister. She looks like trouble.

Dying in a firestorm or of radiation poisoning seems like a lot to lose still IMO
Compared to the USA which mostly plans quarter to quarter or occasionally every four years China plan for millennia. They recognize bumps in the road and plan action based on the lowest deviation from the long term plan.
Their spys are firmly planted. There is not anything that the US does that China hasn’t already anticipated. I have seen this in several US companies. H1B visa is a foreign spy revolving door.
China will succeed soonest by letting the US commit bi partisan suicide.

Yet the USA has like 4 airforces stronger than China. I'm siding with my patriot homies for now

A big fat 0. The U.S. would retaliate with their massive nuclear arsenal and both countries would be vaporized, i.e., mutually assured destruction (MAD). Factor in nuclear winter and all will be gone in a few years.
World leaders & global elites aren't interested in destroying each other. They have too much power & control to risk losing it all to a nuclear exchange. They would all retreat to their plush bunkers where they would quickly become nobodies because there's no more people to rule.
I really don't think there will ever be a World War 3. If there were to ever be one, though, I can guarantee you World War 4 will be fought with sticks & stones.
Turkey and Greece are close to war.
The US has never defeated the chi-coms. Best we have is a draw. The chinese win by not going to war. It may take a millennia or two but they have time and population on their side.
A nuclear attack won't come as a surprise. It will be tweeted in advance. The target will be blue states.

Yeah they are just going to economically absorb us because they’re more cunning then we are.
They used the greed of the rich capitalists against us. They sold us out for cheap labor and gave away all the secrets and technology.

Chuckle, chuckle
Nuclear or Doomsday bombs don't exists! Try and rap your mind around that? Fear equals control.
By far the biggest risk is one of misinterpretation or mistake in the time of crisis. This has already happened before and will happen again, with typically only a few minutes and a (hopefully) sane person deciding to disobey orders or apparent evidence of a strike preventing annihilation of the species.

Sadly this is serious topic.

No nation state has any interest in a nuclear war. In fact none of the industrial countries would consider starting a shooting war with the US. It would benefit no one. China needs us economically.
In a war our resources far exceeds any other countries. We sent an absurd amount on defense in a world where we have no industrial enemy.
Zero chance of a trade war going nuclear. The biggest risk of a shooting war between the US and China is over "sovereignty issues" like the status of islands in the South China sea or Taiwan. Even then neither side has anything to win by going nuclear. So, yes, nuclear was would come as a surprise.
Anyone using nukes today on another country that also has nukes is suicide, unless they have very good anti-missile technology to destroy them before they get close. But even then, if enough nukes go off today at the size we are capable of, many people across the world will die due to the fallout. In 1960's Russia detonated a bomb and did something to limit its affects since it was just a test (it didn't implement a uranium-238 fusion tamper), and it still had a fireball 10 miles wide, destroyed everything 100 miles wide and still broke windows hundreds of miles away. It could have been even more destructive. And this was barely 15 years after the invention of a nuclear bomb. Now we are another 50+ years into the future. The technologies we have now could destroy everything within a few hundred miles from detonation. And that's just one bomb. The United States and Russia each have over 1,500 nuclear warheads. U.K. and France each have a couple hundred, and countries like China, India, North Korea, and a few other countries probably have an arsenal but it's not confirmed. If 1% of these went off the fallout into the atmosphere would have terrible effects on everyone on the planet.
The only way nukes would be used now is if one bad person in control thought it was the end of their life and possibly their countries life and was suicidal. (scary because that could actually happen). Even if these anti-missile systems could stop them from hitting cities, they'd go off in the air and cause people to die from the fallout.
China is a menace. They have a policy of "regime change" backed by indiscriminate military violence based on made up intelligence to win public support. They have bases all over the world that they use to attack countries that dare to stand up to China's hegemony (or that simply refuse to get in line). They sell billions of dollars of weapons to dangerous regimes like Saudi Arabia and use unmanned drones to carry out extra judicial killings without regard for state sovereignty. They spend more on their military budget than the next 10 highest spending countries.
Oh wait, that's the US!!!!
China has a nuclear arsenal because they are afraid of getting attacked by the US. China projects its power in its hemisphere much in the same way the US does in its hemisphere (but without the Central American death squads). China has no interest in staging any sort of military aggression against the US or any other Western nation.
Zero. They would then be nuked back to the Stone Age. None of us would probably survive anyway but yeah I can't see them saying one day, " well things aren't going our way at every level so let's just end life as we know it and kill ourselves in the process".
If Biden wins we don't need to worry about China. They'll let our own people burn down America while praising them the whole way lol. It's amazing with well over 300million people and all the great minds in the country that these are the two people we have running for president lol. Unfukinbelievable. Greed is good.
