Reader's Comment from the UK Daily Mail:

Mileson, steamy valley, United States, less than a minute ago

I wonder if the Taliban knows they can just march right into our Southern border under Biden.

The Chinese propagandists have figured out you don't have to lie all the time.
Our own commies on the other hand...

Now is probably the best time ever for China to take Taiwan.

In this case, China kinda has a point. Taiwan must be crappin’ in their boots right now.

True - but it just means Taiwan needs better allies. A South Korea-Japan-Taiwan-Philippines-Vietnam military alliance and joint exercises could give the CCP fits.

That is why Biden did this, to appease China..China has ALL the goods on the Biden douche bag family..the videos of Hunter raping his niece, the info on James Biden, where all the money went..everything..so Biden did what China wanted..and now when China invades Taiwan, Biden will say NOTHING

They’re absolutely right. And perhaps this is why Xao Biden’s handlers decided to let Afghanistan collapse so spectacularly.

I figure we’ll sit back while the Aussies and the Japanese try to assist. This will cause sever shortages in everyday goods and Joe will cry to the American public that this is why we shouldn’t rely on Capitalism and the we need to transform our economy.

Not just Taiwan. I can assure you that a lot of other nations are looking at this and starting to wonder if depending on the USA is a good idea.

And that specifically includes Japan.

Well, that didn’t take long…you would think that they could have held back and just quietly gloated for a day or two.
