Referring to the Russia-Ukraine Crisis, Trump praised Putin as a “genius” and stated that “China is going to be next” under Biden’s watch.

In a recent interview with the conservative talk radio program “The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show,” former U.S. President Donald Trump confidently stated that “China is going to be next” and would “absolutely” be going after Taiwan.

He accused the Biden administration of being weak and assured the hosts that an invasion would “never have happened” under his own presidency. Trump also praised Putin as a “genius” for sending Russian troops into Ukraine under the guise of “peace keepers.” He stated, “Here’s a guy who’s very savvy.”

The hosts mocked President Joe Biden’s tweets from two years ago in which he wrote: “I’m the only person in this field who’s ever gone toe-to-toe with [Putin].” They claimed Russian invasions also took place under the Obama administration, suggesting the two leaders had weak positions on foreign policy.

As president, Trump was involved and invested in several Taiwanese affairs, especially in regards to military expansion. As an NPR article from 2020 pointed out, Trump made many efforts as president to forge a stronger partnership with Taiwan, including accepting a congratulatory call from Taiwan’s president on his win and dealing a multi-billion dollar arms sale with the Taiwanese military. Under his administration, a brand new $255 million dollar representative office was also opened in Taipei, the capital. Simultaneously during this time, Trump had continued to take an aggressive stance against trade with China by imposing tariffs.

any invasion from sea is problematic unless the invading country neglects to defend itself in a big way.

I doubt it.

Taiwan is actually important.

Unlike Russia or Ukraine.

It must be frustrating for Trump to have his hands tied while the bad guys of the world are making their moves under this loser president.

I woke up about 15 minutes ago having that same thought. The world is about to burn thanks to the fecklessness of the idiot in the White House, and we've got three more years of his incompetence and ineptness to go.

God help us.

I want to be this guy:

At least he had the gyrocoptor, and he got the blond chick in the end.

Yeah, he was cray-cray and the cool gyrocopter was a bonus.

The blond chick too.

Why are you up so early? Or are you up late? I couldn't sleep anymore. This world has gone to hell in a handbasket. I just hope I'm not here for the end.

I know! It makes me wonder if our country can ever recover from the mess Biden will have made by then. He is wrecking us internally and making us vulnerable to some heavy duty dictators.
