It’s like China asking the U.S. to surrender Washington State and California and Oregon and Alaska and Hawaii, after starting a war.

With Biden as president, China would win an American surrender immediately.

Anyhow, China has 2 years before their window for taking Taiwan closes. Biden won’t act.

Some folks who apparently have never done serious negotiations in their own lives think that "meeting in the middle" is a fair settlement. But that rewards the side that makes the most unreasonable demands, because then they walk away with half of something they never deserved in the first place.

I live in Hawaii and I’m quite sure if you held a local referendum, they would happily join China without a war. They already have the same form of single party tyrant government,
A significant portion of our population is Chinese,
And Hawaiian Democrats hate Freedom.
