Therefore, Trump's discussion with Tsai has been seen by some as a breach of protocol, but Bolton disagreed:
"Nobody in Beijing gets to dictate who we talk to. It's ridiculous to think that the phone call upsets decades of anything."
He noted Taiwan, with a population of 20 million, has a democratic government, a free press and a free-market economic system.

The local rag never once mentioned that the call was made by Taiwan, not by Trump.
This lie is deliberate and intentional, to get people to go around saying that Trump called Taiwan. Once that lie is out there, it will not be possible to call it back.
And that is their plan.

I generally detest Bolton as one of the neo-cons who dragged us into this endless series of overseas wars and military adventurism with all the attendant catastrophic consequences. But here he is right. We talk to whom we want. China can go pound sand.

"Bolton on Trump's Taiwan Call: China Doesn't Tell Us Who We Can Talk To" That is correct. Obama however, bows to the Chinese.

Bolton for Secretary of State!Bolton epitomizes the 'No Nonsense' stereotype. Straight shooter and usually right on the money. I like the guy.
