Demands haven’t been met.
It’s simple. No more control from Beijing. Hong Kong elects it’s own legislature and Chief Exec.
OK, good luck with that. 1997 issues may be a good idea. But you have 7 million people on once side of the border and 1.5 billion on the other.
Possibly a better way to ease into democracy is for protesters to stop protesting when their demands are met. As opposed to having the protesters just look for other demands as soon as you meet the original demands. That will just teach China to shoot protesters right off the bat.
Trump is perfectly prepared to deal with the thugs running China.
He dealt with, and bested, the New York mob as a developer.
Trump will defeat the CCP by taking their money away. Without money they cannot control an enormous population of smart people.
Pretty much all evil in the world is perpetrated by those seeking money (and control)
It is a rare man who cannot be bought, Trump is that rare man. Would that the House and Senate were comprised entirely of such.
