China's navy isn't anywhere CLOSE to being as capable as the US Navy. You're either a CCP troll, or just ridiculously ignorant.

Why is that? (What makes the US navy better)

Air craft carrier diff is huge China has a ton of small ships and civilian ships they can repurpose. Really good on defense, on offense not so much. I don’t think either side could win this war tbh, I think the reason why the status quo is what it is is largely because any fighting wouldn’t change the status quo. It’s hard to blockade an island when your opponent has so many damn aircraft carriers, hard to pressure the mainland when you don’t have the ammunition to fight all those ships

What do I know tho
