Holy shit! Trump called the President of Taiwan.

[Are_grits_groceries]

He reversed years of US policy.
BTW the Trump org has expressed interest in Taiwan business.
Somebody better stop this fool!

Trump wants to build luxury hotels in Taiwan’s Taoyuan: mayor | Taiwan News taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3031091

Not right and very dangerous.

[femmocrat]

1. Calling on the Electors to do their damn job!!

I hope they are following these early machinations of the ominous orange threat.

[elleng]

2. See what CHINA says to him about it!

Let's see how many times, and by whom around the world, he gets his ass kicked!

[spanone]

3. the United States of Trump Industries....

[madinmaryland]

17. More like the Dis-United States of tRump.

[spanone]

19. he'll start a war before he's ever sworn in.....this sounds like Breitbart shit....

it's absolutely insane

it proves he doesn't have a single clue what he's doing....nothing

[dixiegrrrrl]

21. Tom Cotten just added gasoline...

Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark.: 'I commend President-elect Trump for his conversation with President Tsai Ing-wen,
which reaffirms our commitment to the only democracy on Chinese soil

Twitter


btw...Trump says he took the call, he did not initiate it.
For what that is worth.

[spanone]

22. these bastards are crazy. totally insane.

[StevieM]

23. It's worth practically nothing. And Tom Cotton is once again proving that even idiots

can go to Harvard.

Then again, Elizabeth Warren was his professor and she is brilliant.

[NightWatcher]

4. We're going to find out what the worst thing that could happen by us electing a moron.

Lets piss off China before Day One.

[SidDithers]

5. He's dangerous...

But it was Hillary that the Jackass Deplorables were sure would be starting a war.

6. My US Intel class, taught by an IC consultant: Ukraine might fall, followed by Poland. Taiwan poss.

.


If China has internal conflicts and needs to demonstrate strength, Taiwan would be a blood bath fight.


However, there is a strong possibility that Russia will seize Ukraine, and if that happens Poland might go too.


===


When asked about the US agreement to defend Taiwan and NATO's defense of Poland...

The US and NATO won't do shit about either one if them. Neither will cause a regional or global conflict for them.


They are deemed acceptable losses. Oh, and BTW, Russia and China know this. It's not a secret.


.

[NightWatcher]

8. Putin will get trump to defang NATO and then make his move

[TheBlackAdder]

9. He doesn't have to, this is already the acceptable losses before shit would get real.

.


But, yes. If NATO were defanged first, they would have a hard time rebuilding once Poland falls.


If Poland falls first, it would strengthen NATO's resolve to exist.


.

[gwheezie]

7. He should go to intel briefings

Hasn't he been paying any attention.

[JHan]

10. .....but he has the attention span of a fruitfly??

[Johnny2X2X]

11. Trump towers

Trump is an idiot.

And one thing that hasn't been discussed is that every building in the world with his name on it is going to be a target. The first one that gets attacked will make the rest of them vacant. Can you imagine if Obama had had his name on a bunch of buildings around the world?

[lostnfound]

20. Discussed on MSNBC one evening. Soft targets become hard ones on Jan 20th

[GP6971]

26. But at whose expense?

Better not be us taxpayers.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

12. Gol dang it

Dat's juz da librul media talkin'

[bdamomma]

13. He is going to start a freaking war

he needs to be stopped Putin is enjoying all this we are spiraling and he is not even pResident yet. Sick ass man god, why isn't anyone stepping in???

why isn't Obama sayng anything???? just asking

[Grey Lemercier]

14. he is a madman, for the very first time I am leaning toward

his not making it through 4 years. Even the Rethugs (other than the rapture fuckers) dont want nuclear war, they are too greedy to give up the looting of an intact world.

[kentuck]

15. Obama should be sending ambassadors to all these countries he is doing business with...

Seriously.

[spanone]

16. nbc nightly news said he called without state department or Obama admin. knowing

china will go fucking ballistic! what is this fucker doing????

[Barack_America]

18. Did he promise to stop over on his way to Pakistan?

Sweet Jesus.

[Abq_Sarah]

24. We've been selling the ROC military equipment for decades

If the PRC ever decided to invade Taiwan, it would be US made destroyers and aircraft used in defense of Taiwan against China. Why do we keep pretending we view China's claim to them as legitimate when our actions say otherwise?

[smirkymonkey]

25. This is madness.

[WomanWhoRoars]

27. Orange Julius

This idiot is going to get us all into WW3
