We disengaged from Afghanistan so we could focus our efforts on kicking China’s ass if they step out of line

You misunderstood my point. Yes, I believe we are responsible for assisting Taiwan in defending itself from China, but I doubt we will do so with the administration and DOD we have now. If China hasn’t already bought and paid for them, Biden and Gen. Milley are both too weak and incompetent, if not plain frightened to go to war. So, if I am correct, China has a green light and will not hesitate to sacrifice a million people to take Taiwan back.

Not big on the THC thing, but thanks for the offer.

The way things are going, I may just need some in the near future.

Seriously, the Adults in the Trump Admin looked at force readiness needs to confront China and at the $40-$50 billion we were pounding down the Afghanistan rat hole every year and made the right decision.

So the original decision to withdraw from the sandbox was made with China in mind.

Afghanistan’s collapse will hopefully be a wake up call

That’s Trump, but that’s not Biden’s. Biden’s plan is to take advantage of the chaos to dump thousands of Afghan refugees on this country.

Yes the Taiwan people will fight tooth and nail. Unfortunately the average citizen there is unarmed and untrained for firearm use. I have talked personally with some of the military I have met. They will fight to the death and are well trained.

China can do it... the only time our military is ‘touch’ is when they’re talking about going after conservative American citizens.

Joke Biden: Bought & Paid for by the Chinese, blackmailed by the Russians.
