Of course he is. We all know he would've never tried that with Trump.Layne Staley said:Why the hell not, he's way more qualified than Xiden.CoppellAg93 said:

Congrats Dems, you cheated, won and the USA lost.
In fairness, Trump got an amazing amount accomplished while fending off bogus investigations, an impeachment trial, and too many weak kneed republicans. Not to mention this pandemic his last year in office.Tex117 said:
We will have a chance in 3 years to fix this.
America has completely lost its direction. What it stands for (and the West).
We need a DeSantis type Republican in office. (No Trump...let that loser go...he didn't help much either).

I can't tell you how bad the Chinese want Taiwan and they are willing to pay A HEAVY COST to get it. I mean they are literally insane about Taiwan. They will invade in a second if they think the U.S. will just protest and not go to full war over an invasion. This picture screams submission. A dove admin that will draw another red line like Syria and then do nothing. That was Putin's go signal to invade Ukraine because he knew Berry wouldn't do squat and he was right. This screams to China " Invade Taiwan. America will do nothing to stop you " IMO
I think everything about this picture supports the read that China (and Russia) are about to go on a bully America campaign while Uncle Joe goes on an apology tour.Proper Twelve said:EX TEXASEX said:

It seems like you are literally insane about China. This picture has nothing to do with China or Taiwan. Do you have some sort of vested interest in Taiwan? Why do you care about Taiwan so much?
Because they ( Taiwan ) are hands down the biggest chance of us having a conflict with China ! The next biggest thing to have us have open conflict/war with china is MINISCULE compared to Taiwan. Without them, a free Taiwan, their is no " First Island Chain " which would be a disaster for the West coast and the United states security in general. it would be a nightmare for our navy. Then it would also be a nightmare if china then got control of this gem of Taiwan TSMC . Taiwan is so more more to the U.S. than a tiny democracy of 24 million people . The fate of Taiwan has major ramification for American security .Proper Twelve said:EX TEXASEX said:

In 6 months this administration is such a disaster that the foreign leaders see an 18 month window to do what they want. I agree with the assessment that Taiwan is gone. See Honk Kong for reference,

read up on first island chain. Keeping the Chinese navy blocked behind the first Island chain is HUGE for our national security. The only other option out of it , is through the Malacca Straight. A strategic choke point in case of war with China . A free Taiwan is vital to our security !

Let's make some targets and practice.
Basically it is for security reasons. I said China's geography is crap in regards to access to the Pacific. Taiwan is blocking them, if they conquer Taiwan then they have open access to the Pacific and our waters at will. But if there is a war and Taiwan is free we can bottle them in which is super important. We have to defend them also because we have said we would or implied it. We have been very vague about it for the last 40 years purposely. We want China to believe we would and we want Taiwan to have enough doubt that they would never declare independence. There is a battle for hegemony in the S.E. Pacific between china's might make right and the U.S. rules based order. If we don't defend Taiwan then all our allies will lose confidence in us and will immediately stop standing up to china and now they will control all of S.E. Asia which would be an economic disaster and a startegic diaster for us and the democraies their. I am probably not doing a great job of explaining but S.E. Asia is obviously super important to us on many levels. There is a battle to see who will lead it. We don't want to loose that. I have no desire to go to war with china, so arm to the teeth us and are allies so they don't even think about doing it. Unfortunately Joe is screaming weakness which will increase the chance of war.Proper Twelve said:EX TEXASEX said:

That's fine. I know all the state department and media talking points about why we need to do war with China to defend Taiwan. They just don't make sense and are not good for America

Unless they are planning on invading America, I don't understand how nations on the other side of the planet dealing with regional conflicts has anything to do with America. I certainly don't see how it is "bullying" America

I'm sorry but I disagree. With the shape our nation is in domestically, I do not understand why any American cares about Taiwan (unless they are ethnically Chinese or something). Taiwan is definitely NOT WORTH going to war with China.
