This was a criminal act by the US government and a betrayal of our allies. All because american companies wanted access to slave labor in China.
China is not our friend and we are the big shot and there is no reason to kow tow to their “sensibilities”.
They’re going to be pissed at this but not at Trump constantly fingering them for stealing our jobs, manipulating currency, etc. during the campaign?
China’s already been put on notice that the free ride is over. This is nothing new.
This time he’s done it. For sure. End of the World.
More liberal heads exploding.
Great way to start my day.
I’m surprise that Reagan or one of the Bushes never even talked to the Taiwan president. Also surprised that the communists never invaded Taiwan
I think Clinton and Gore have sold too high at the Buddhist Temple.
Both China and Taiwan congratulated President Elect Trump the day after the election.
Late Friday news pieces tend to be “predictive.”
about time we stopped cowtowing to the chicoms, cut them off from our economy, they are not friends
My wife is from Taiwan so I have been there several times. Beautiful country and beautiful people. They love Americans and it’s a wonderful place to be a tourist. People go out of their way to help you. There is no welfare there but they help everyone. Parents are taken care of by the children. Blind people are taught trades like massage for example. Nobody litters. The trains are on time to the minute. The subway system in Taipei was finished in 3 yrs on a 4 yr timetable and under budget! Every kid wants to study hard and get their PhD. They respect elders and open doors for them. I don’t speak chinese yet have no trouble running around the countryside by myself as there is always someone offering help. It’s a breath of fresh air compared to our cities here.
I have worked there myself, taipei..I agree, many folks as I am a little tall came up to me and thanked me for keeping them safe as an American..kind, gracious people...
so much pollution though...whew really bad...
China has been immensely emboldened by our faux support of “free enterprise” with a communist dictatorship in order to buy cheap goods and sell t-shirts. It is impossible to fathom the depths of American lunacy towards China policies since Nixon, the media never saw a commie they didn’t love and GOPe is so insecure in their manhood they don’t want to be left off the “Hollywood/Beautiful People” guest lists for the Social Elite party lists.
America’s natural ally in the region is now and has always been India, a legitimate democracy with English as its official language. Also has the same population demographics and in twenty years the same number of people to buy T-shirts from us. India and China are lifelong adversaries and through freedom and free enterprise relationships America could have kept the region in check without selling our soul for short term economic and political gain with the lefties.
History will remember Bipartisan collusion is selling out the last bastion of freedom in the world. May God have mercy on their souls.
President Trump: "Hello, Taiwan? I want girls. Busloads/trainloads of your girls imported!"
President Tsai Ing-wen: "Girls? I first female Plesidant of Taiwan. I send you girls. Bus roads! Here, I text you picture:"
Trump: "Nice. Send them over and I'll send you missiles, money, and Carrier Air conditioners instead of that Chinese Crap. It'll be great."
Tsai Ing-wen: "Tank you for da helmet Plesident Trump! Chinese very crose to us. We will win with your weapons! We send you more girls! Here rookie here:
Taiwanese girls: "HIIIIII DONNNNNNALLLD!
Trump: "Why, hello Taiwan. We are going to win so much, you'll get tired of winning!
It soon will be a matter that all the nations of the world will fear the wrath of America.
