The master never goes to war without his bulldog.

"We (Obama) convinced Ukraine to give up their nuclear weapons in exchange for assurances America would protect against any attacks from Russia."

When do you think Ukraine gave up it's nuclear weapons?

I’ve seen dog poop smeared on the street curb which is of a higher quality than the traitor and freak Blinken. Most of our computer chips come from Taiwan. We’re undergoing a crisis now of a terrible shortage of baby formula. How are we going to weather a nearly complete shutoff of computer chips, when everything we have is powered by them?

“There is absolutely nothing west of Hawaii worth putting my grandchildren on the front lines of a nuclear confrontation with either Russia or China.”

So, you’re okay with Russia or China attacking Alaska. Good to know.

Well, US policy since the Nixon Administration is not to support opposition to the One China policy.

On the other hand, it also has been US policy to intervene militarily if China attempts to invade Taiwan.

Consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds and all that.

Not unexpected, Blinked is just one of many in the administration that is owned lock, stock and barrel by the Chinese. Just amazes me how cheaply that the Chinese were able to purchase them.

Am I the only one thinking that this response is incontrovertible
proof that *46 is nothing but a puppet?
He makes no final decisions, others do.

[FlyingEagle]

Which Liar should China believe?

[Magnum44]

I don’t know if they are trying to start wars, but they are so stupid with all their signaling that our adversaries see it as open invitations to expand into the empty space democratic policy is creating.

Ironic that POTUS 46’s IQ is 46.

When Taiwan falls, it will have a profound economic impact on the world. Lots of know-how and production capacity lies there.

[Cboldt]

-- Why would any country trust the USA as an ally? --

I think as a practical matter, none do. It's all situational wheeling and dealing. No honor among thieves and so on.

US never made a deal it didn't break.

Wow. So no one else can learn or make anything. We are helpless idiots.....

[Cboldt]

-- So no one else can learn or make anything. We are helpless idiots... --

Bean counters saw to that.

State of the art semiconductor has a significant concentration in Taiwan. Of course there is expertise elsewhere. There is often, usually, recovery from profound impact. Hiroshima is thriving. Humanity got past the dark ages. Civilization didn't die when Rome fell, and so on. The world goes on with new Atillas, Hitlers, Stalins, Maos, Bidens, Faucis - and there are intervals where good guys have the upper hand. Humanity is a dynamic thing.

On his best day.

Actually a cold turkey cutoff of all imports would be a blessing. So many long term benefits for future generations OF AMERICANS.

[TigersEye]

This is a full reversal from what the Usurper said last week.

Heck, Biden reversed himself in the very next sentence.

Biden: US would defend Taiwan militarily video 0:50

"Look, here's the situation, we agree with the One China Policy."

[SuperLuminal]

"Biden’s Secretary of State Tony Blinken..."

Just more proof that:
The only good communist is a dead communist...

Good citizenship would seem to require that true Americans should help Aamerican communists to be the best that they can be...

"We have always supported Taiwan’s independence. "

While in the navy in the early seventies the US naval base in Kaohsiung, Taiwan was a frequent port of call.
