What would be the choice: Defend Taiwan (give up Chinese products and Tik-Tok, etc. that fund China) or Surrender Taiwan (to keep Tik-Tok and an uninterrupted supply of cheap Chinese products)?
And it was in one of my news summaries weeks ago.
Ukraine is the practice session for the main event.

They should be known as the Finger Brigade because that’s what they’re doing. I hope they survive captivity.
Biden could give a Schiff if there are American troops on Taiwan if China invades. Look at his disregard for the troops killed at the Kabul gates when he surrendered in Afghanistan, or the American hostages currently being held by Hamas. Heck, he’s building a pier in order to feed Hamas. He’s even using a Hamas-linked contractor to BUILD THE PIER!

So 70 years of “strategic ambiguity” is out the window.
Taiwanese should be prepared to be Ukrainized.
All their elites have US and Japanese passports anyway.
I think most Americans would be surprised to find out that Kinmen County is Taiwanese, but just 3 miles off the mainland Chinese coast. You’ll note Google Maps goes out of it’s way to not identify it or any township as Taiwanese. 3 miles west is clearly labeled as China at every location.

Needless to say the Chinses Airforce violates the airspace almost daily as a “F.U., what are you going to do about it?”
I miss President Trump and the days of peace.
The military industrial complex is going to get their war before Trump has a chance to spoil it.
By the way, what usually happens in an election during wartime?
I’d love to have these troops on our border right now. It’s tough for me to get worked up about someone else’s security (even if it has an economic impact on our nation) when we have such egregious border controls as we have now.
If China is our enemy, why does everything we touch, see and purchase from Red China?
Seem like one big con job.
Taiwan is US territory. We got it from Japan after WW2, and have never formally relinquished ownership. https://www.taiwanbasic.com/key/dc/tw_insul6.htm
