Oh he##, it never ends!!

Not every strategy will be understood in the process of its implementation. It could seem backwards or counterintuitive, until you see other data, or the longer goal. Pompeo... ha. He sure did make China love us didn't he? How is that One China policy going? Mnuchin... I cant vouch for him.

Then there is this: "Pompeo said the following:

"…I am announcing that I am lifting all (US) self-imposed restrictions" on Washington's one China policy."

"Henceforth, US regimes "should consider all 'contact guidelines' regarding relations with Taiwan previously issued by the Department of State under authorities delegated to the Secretary of State to be null and void.""

""Additionally, any and all sections of the Foreign Affairs Manual or Foreign Affairs Handbook that convey authorities or otherwise purport to regulate executive branch engagement with Taiwan via any entity other than the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) are also hereby voided."

"Today's" unilateral breach of what stood the test of time since 1979 is replaced by virtual recognition of Taiwan as a sovereign state."

Pompeo: "(T)he US-Taiwan relationship need not, and should not, be shackled by self-imposed restrictions of our permanent bureaucracy."

"China hasn't officially commented on this development so far."

Has Biden reversed this yet? What would happen if he tried to?

Who is Lee Stranahan and why should we consider his opinion?
