Taiwan

"President-elect Donald Trump spoke with President Tsai Ing-wen of Taiwan on Friday, who offered her congratulations on his victory and discussed the close economic, political, and security ties between the two countries." He is not even in office yet and is acting like a better president than as far back as Reagan! |

Neither has any other president since Nixon recognized China. More importantly, Trump most likely did not do it as part of any new policy but rather due to his total lack of preparedness for the job. Expect a lot more of it. |

He's talked to a few leaders now. Maybe a phone call and man to man talk over a beer is better than diplomats trying to make everyone look good. Remains to be seen what happens, but many neighbor disputes are solved over a beer or coffee rather than lawyers. |

Yes, if Trump did it without realizing the implications. It also seems like a bad idea to start ****ing off the Chinese before trying to get them to do what he wants them to do regarding trade with the USA. In short, before starting a ****ing match, isn't it better to have a strategy? He doesn't even have a Sec of State yet. He's talked to a few leaders now.

Remains to be seen what happens, but many neighbor disputes are solved over a beer or coffee rather than lawyers. You really think the Taiwan/China thing is going to be solved over a beer? If it gets solved with words, actions without a strategy, the likely result is to be China taking Taiwan. Trump has already signaled that he thinks the US should disengage from Asia, that we have no vital interests there, etc. How much of a green light did Saddam need? Plus there is no Taiwan thing that needs fixing, so this seems about as boneheaded as the bug up Trump's ass about flag burning. |

Bending over backwards for them has not realized any benefits. **** them off, and make them realize they need to do something positive to get our cooperation. Just like Cuba. Dumbo hands them everything with nothing in return, just more "hope". Idiot. |

The most interesting part is that Beijing is blaming Taiwan for being irresponsible and calling Trump. They are trying to convince people (themselves) that Trump did not do this on purpose. Fascinating. |

China doesn't have the capacity to take Taiwan and most of the open source estimates suggest they won't for a decade or more. They probably have the numbers in their army, but they don't have the sealift of airlift capacity to invade. So China couldn't take Taiwan by force yet even if they thought nobody would say anything. |

What is wrong with ****ing off the Chinese? How about if this whole Taiwan thing, which has been fine for 40+ years, suddenly becomes a flash point for the world, because Trump has now raised it, stuck his finger in their eye? Suppose China decides to force it's way on Taiwan? Are we ready to defend Taiwan, or just let it go? Why do we even have to take any chance of that happening, instead of letting sleeping dogs lie? Trump doesn't give a rat's ass that Russia invaded Ukraine, annexed Crimea. He said he'd consider recognizing their annexation of Crimea. If you were China, what would you read into *that*? And why is it that Trump, who has no interest in the sovereignty of Crimea, Ukraine, suddenly has a bug up his ass about Taiwan? Maybe the fact that a US citizen, who is friends with a former Taiwan VP, showed up in Taiwan just weeks ago to look into participating in the biggest real estate project in Taiwan's history has somthing to do with it? Bending over backwards for them has not realized any benefits. World peace would seem to be a benefit. **** them off, and make them realize they need to do something positive to get our cooperation. We'll surely see where that gets us. Just like Cuba. Dumbo hands them everything with nothing in return, just more "hope". Idiot. Except of course that Cuba is a ****ant of no consequence to us or anybody else. China is the second largest economy in the world, a major importer of US products, and a nuclear power. Regarding Cuba, watch what Trump does. Will he be tough, demand change? My bet is his idiot sons are already talking to Cuba about real estate projects and Trump will be the one to fully open the door to them. It will be all about jobs. And since when does Trump care about any of the civil rights, human rights, govt of Cuba? He never mentioned Ukraine once and said he'd consider recognizing Russia's taking of Crimea. |

Why is it a bad thing to let them know ahead of time that there other options floating around? Knock Beijing a little off their game. Nobody has dared rattle their cage for decades and I don't see a problem. Especially since in this case he didn't initiate it. Here's what's wrong with it. Trump has said we should back away from Asia, withdraw. He's said he's consider recognizing Putin's annexation of Crimea. He hasn't said one word about Russia having invaded half of Ukraine. If you were China, intent on reclaiming your rogue province, what would you read into that? How much of a green light did it take for Saddam to conclude that the US was OK with him invading Kuwait? So, now Trump starts stirring up something that is a potential flash point, like Berlin was with the Russians, and you see no potential problem? Taiwan is fine, was fine, why make problems where none exist? You really think the Taiwan/China thing is going to be solved over a beer? If it gets solved with words, actions without a strategy, the likely result is to be China taking Taiwan. Trump has already signaled that he thinks the US should disengage from Asia, that we have no vital interests there, etc. How much of a green light did Saddam need?

Nobody thought Hitler could roll right through Europe either. And do you really think idiot Trump thought about any of that, before sticking his wick into a potential hornet's nest, a world flash point? Face it, it's amateur hour with plenty more to come. |
