Yesterday, I saw a photo of Pelosi in Taiwan. Walking alongside was Lloyd Austin, Sec. of Defense. As a member of the Executive Branch of the Biden administration, he directly reports to Joe Biden.
If I wanted to know the isolationist GOP spin on this, I would have looked in on Faux News. I didn't. And you shouldn't either.
Biden and his top aides have been reported not by Fox by the way as not being on board with this visit. Contrary to what some people think Bidens not stupid. I've never believed that there's a reason he wasn't crazy about this
There's also a reason Pelosi had to show up in a friggin warship
Look I do believe we have to take on China and Russia it's clear
But liberals want to go about it in the stupidest most confrontative way possible.
When all your chips come from an island right next to China? Your not ready for war.
When your not energy independent? Your not ready for war
When a lot of your manufacturing comes from your enemy? Your not ready for war
When your getting hit by inflation and your economy is severely weakened by a pandemic? Your not ready for war.
When you have civil unrest in your own country due to issues with law enforcement, civil rights, a housing crises? And going to war will just make it worse? Your not ready for war.
Instead of doing what China did for the last 50 or so years and strategically get ready for this? We just virtue signal our opponents to act right now
China in there military exercises has now completely surrounded Taiwan fired missiles over there air space even into Japan's trading territory.
No one thinks China wants to fully commit to this but the valid worry was that this visit would cause them to posture so recklessly that they might inadvertently start a conflict.
I'd say that was valid
But let's say they were to keep the blockade in effect? Let's say they go after Taiwan? Taking out all of the Faux news,Trump name calling someone that just has questions an appeaser or isolationist you liberals so love to do?
What do you think the US and the West especially with a lot of our attention being diverted into Russia right now can really do about it?
Just answer me that last question? Because if the answer is really nothing. Then we shouldn't have gone over there at all.
I don't have a problem with the idea. Standing up to China is a good thing. Im questioning how we are going about it. I'm questioning the timing and most importantly the tactics.
So if that makes me just reading Faux News? If that makes me an isolationist or an appeaser? Fine I have no problems with that. Bring it on libs. Sling your mud all you want. Doesn't faze anyone anymore That's just your new liberal terms now for when someone disagrees with you. 2 years ago it was white supremacists or racists or conspiracy theorists if anyone had any God forbid questions on different ways to handle defunding the police or handling the pandemic.
