Itās guys like Mark Hertling that still give me some hope for the US.
Ah, Hegseth. The guy who stood up in Europe and told the world that the US would āneed years to prepareā for a sea battle with Russia.

Years is optimistic - iirc their entire littoral fleet is basically mothballed for Useless reasons, while pretty much everything else is either old and tired, doesnāt work properly, or is still on the drawing boardā¦
For damn sure China will be taking Taiwan in the next 4 years. Trump will do nothing.

Not unlikely - PRCās been probing Taiwanās defences for the last few years - they wonāt just want to take it, theyāll want to make a show of āblitzkreigingā it very rapidly, with as few silicon chip factories damaged as possibleā¦
Then years of behind-closed-doors show trials of Taiwnese ātraitorsā, most of whom were actually shot in the head on day one of the invasion.
Then I guess Japan, S.Korea and The Phillipines will start saying goodbye to some of their outlying islandsā¦
Fuck it Zelensky should reach out to China for protection and see what happens. 
No matter what they are fucked but I wouldnāt want to be on the wrong side of them whatever happens as I suspect there will be a lot of lethal consequences.

That would definitely help, for a given value of āhelpā which is equal or greater-than āproperly-fuck-things-upāā¦
China are just biding their time, not getting too involved in anything. Why waste money on wars against nations that are voluntarily shooting themselves in the head?
I donāt suppose anyone has seen a US Constitution lying around?
The White House have lost theirs.
Seriouslyā¦
Oh I think heās already poking and trying to instigate that one already
Heās so fucking desperate for a Nobel peace prize I think heās trying to start or find conflicts he can resolve
The US State Department has dropped a statement from its website which stated that Washington does not support Taiwanās independence - a move which has sparked anger in China.
China said the revision āsends a wrongā¦ signal to separatist forces advocating for Taiwan independenceā, and asked the US to ācorrect its mistakesā.
The departmentās fact sheet on Taiwan-US relations earlier included the phrase āwe do not support Taiwan independenceā - this was removed last week as part of what it said was a āroutineā update.
Interesting. Taiwan must have agreed to buy some more pricey weapons systems from the US.
Or theyāre offering to release some prime beach/golf real estate.
