Well, 90% of Crimeans wanted to be Russians - I think the percentage of Taiwanese who want to be Chinese is quite a bit lower. :)

But yes - Taiwan can expect zero help from any Democrat administration. And if Trump were not President, they would get zero help from the GOP, either.

“Well, 90% of Crimeans wanted to be Russians”

This is correct.

Crimea was part of Russia longer than longer than the U.S. was a country. Kruschev—a Ukranian—”Gave” Crimea to the “state” of Ukraine without obtaining consent of their Parliment (?) which was supposed to approve all changes in borders/land swaps etc. It just returned to its original country / borders. No reason to send the U.S. Army pouring thru the Fulda Gap!
