6.) THE UNITED STATES WILL NOT FORMALLY RECOGNIZE CHINESE SOVEREIGNTY OVER TAIWAN.

As far as I’m concerned, the legit government of Beijing is in Taipei, not Beijing. Imagine how much safer and prosperous the world would be if the Nationalists hadn’t ended up in exile, if China hadn’t ended up under the control of insecure Commies.

Speaking the obvious sounds audacious and provocative when you’ve had eight years of a foreigner president.

Trump will miss a golden opportunity if he doesn’t make this man SoS.

If he’s still making his mind up, I hope someone on his team shows him this story. That oughta do it.

Shouldn’t that headline read “...whom we can talk to...”, being the object of the subject “Nobody...”? Whatever happened to the word “whom”? You never see it used anymore, much less used correctly. Same with the subjective “were”. Everybody just says “was”. It should always be “were” after the word “if”.

Sorry if I sound picky, but I think it is important to use proper English as an example to our children and to new English speakers.

Or, did somebody change the rules while I was raising 4 kids, finishing my degree, and moving around the country?

...Bolton on Trump’s Taiwan Call: “Nobody In Beijing Gets To Dictate Who We Talk To”...

Zer0 sells a couple of billion dollars in defensive weapons including small missiles and warships to Taiwan in 2015 and liberals are totally silent. These are defensive WEAPONS to be used against Chinese aggression. Trump takes a 10 minute call and it’s the end of the world. The rules are different for Democrats big time. Is it any wonder Her Heinous lost??

This nothing issue about from the establishment media is really about protecting the establishment diplomat core. These are the same useful idiots who were furious with Reagan when the old soviet union fell. they lost their jobs.

Trump by taking this call has also put the unelected diplomats on notice that their BS games are not going to fly.

He is still my first choice for SoS. It's time for a responsible adult to take over that mess, as the last two clowns have been miserable failures.

So Trump took a phone call from the leader of Taiwan. Now it is pictured as a bad faith and hinders relations with China. Sounds like the liberals in the media have more of a problem than reality. So now Trump must refrain from taking calls from anyone that might tick off China. Where was the media when Obama fielded phone calls from people and nations that were not in the best interest to America - The secret talks with Iran

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 17m17 minutes ago

Did China ask us if it was OK to devalue their currency (making it hard for our companies to compete), heavily tax our products going into..


Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 10m10 minutes ago

their country (the U.S. doesn't tax them) or to build a massive military complex in the middle of the South China Sea? I don't think so!
