(Full title: "Trump talks with Taiwan President: Tsai Ing-wen calls Donald, Western media flips out")
The subtitles:
NEW YORK — President-elect Donald Trump spoke with Taiwanese president Tsai Ing-wen on Friday in a major departure from decades of U.S. policy in Asia.
Trump tweeted last Friday, “The President of Taiwan CALLED ME today to wish me congratulations on winning the Presidency. Thank you!”
About and hour later, he then tweeted, “Interesting how the U.S. sells Taiwan billions of dollars of military equipment but I should not accept a congratulatory call.”
During an approximately 10 minute phone call, Tsai and Trump talked about improving Taiwan’s economy and strengthening its defense.
Tsai expressed hope the U.S. and Taiwan would “establish a closer cooperative relationship.”
Trump also congratulated Tsai on her election win earlier this year.
Whether or not Trump intentionally or unknowingly set off this latest diplomatic crap storm, it’s a good thing for Taiwan.
As for how China is going to react and what they’re going to say — who cares?

Those are great.
The PRC is represented by 4 people there, one in LEOPARD SKIN clothes.

I kept watching trying to pick up the colloquial opinions of the Taiwanese. Trying to discern some cultural significance or insight.
Who did the suite, the women in red and the hipster dressed with leopard spotted tights and some fur neck wrap?
