Only Nixon could go to China.

There’s a new Vulcan proverb: Only Trump could go to North Korea.

Maybe the Norks learned from the Chinese experience. Build the big nuke bombs to get the notice of the Americans, who will knock on your door and help modernize your country. Who's next, Cuba?

The Cold War was going on when Nixon went to China. He wasn’t stupid. He wanted a friend for America to counterbalance the USSR in the Cold War.

Now that there isn’t much, if any, of a cold war, and China is torn between capitalism and communism, it’s probably a good thing that China be urged to stand on its own. Without the huge trade advantage to the USA, China will find it can’t afford the communism.
