"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!

Inept comparison. Reagan never spoke with Taiwan directly. 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.

But is that a bad thing? 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.

Certainly a great way to pave the way for a new Trump hotel in that
country......

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.

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.

I am sure he realized the implications. What is wrong with ****ing off

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.
