Republican lawmakers are praising President-elect Donald Trump for talking to Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen by telephone, but on Saturday, mainland China launched a complaint about the phone call amidst concerns that the call could jeopardize United States relations with Beijing.
"America has always been a champion of democratic values and individual freedoms, and I applaud the President-elect for making a strong statement in support of those values around the world," Rep. Matt Salmon, R-Arizona, who chairs the House Foreign Affairs subcommittee on Asia and the Pacific, told The Hill in a statement about Friday's phone call. "I commend [President-elect] Trump for reaching out to the democratically-elected President of Taiwan, Tsai Ing-wen."

And maybe the Dali Lama won’t have to come into the white house by the kitchen entrance.
A clear signal that Trump is not going to let the US be rolled over any more.
“jeopardize United States relations with Beijing” - like they might try to ruin our industries and economy - oh wait...
Nah, we can make that too.
Screw 'em.
Yeah, and steal our jobs, eevunnnnh!
As my late Mother would tell me if she saw I was mad over something that didn’t suit me, “Well, you’ll just have to get glad again!”
Yes, Dennis. This winning is getting real enjoyable. And to have a congressman who has the backbone and the stones, and the understanding to realize greatness when he sees it; and compliment PE Trump about it. That’s the cherry on top.
It's time we starting using the qualifier: "Red" China again.
Let me see if I understand. Palestine is a real country but Taiwan isn’t. Is that it?
No. You left out "Islam is a religion of peace".
Hey China -- this is for your benefit:

China had to launch a complaint after ALL OF THE COMMIE MEDIA WENT BALLISTIC OVER A DAMN PHONE CALL! China is just taking their cue from their clones in America.
This whole incident is about as relevant as a fart in a hurricane!
“It’s time we starting using the qualifier: “Red” China again.”
Yes! And it’s time we STOPPED letting the RAT media get away with their totally bogus Red/Blue bullchit, where the Red areas are for the freedom-oriented Right and the Blue areas are for the commie-oriented Left. That the Republicans have allowed that crap to go on for so long and that they have willingly played along with it all just proves beyond any shadow of a doubt that they’re truly the Stupid Party.
I’m glad Trump had a dialogue with the Taiwanese. I’m sick and tired of our leaders kowtowing to the Chinese on everything. Long overdue!!!
LOL!
