Chicomms have space weapons, so do our Russian friends. Best defense is good offense!
The Chinese have been offensive with the Space War concept. They created over 2,000 bullets in orbit in 2007.

A quick overview about military efforts in space from Stars and Stripes ten weeks ago.

And, yes, an US Space Corps is hardly a new concept. But when it gets some backing from the top, the main response appears to be cartoons, old video clips, memes and GIFs by the thousands. Within ten years what will we need more, the USMC or the USSC?

A former chief of defence staff was saying Canada isn't ready for a space army. I wonder what his first clue was, the fact that one of our military helicopters in service probably still has a wrench rattling around dropped by Igor Sikorsky himself.
Read Starship Trooper again . Then visualize the USMC morphing into The Mobil Infantry . Grunts of the US Space Corps .
