Technically, Trump blinked first.

Again, you are confusing the interests of the Zionists with the interests of America.

But that's understandable, they spend a lot of money brainwashing you.

"We must solemnly tell the U.S.: a tariff-wielding barbarian who attempts to force countries to call and beg for mercy can never expect that call from China,"

I keep asking JoeB131 but he refuses to answer

Maybe you can be more intellectually honest

If the tariff war between the US and communist china becomes a shooting war where American servicemen are dying whose side are you on?

I'm on the side of not starting wars we can't win and have no purpose.

We fought the war on terror for 20 years because no one bothered to question it.

Thats a non answer

Which is all I expect to get from you or any trump hating lib

In a military showdown I think you will continue to carry china’s water

Agree, good answer.. BUT, we can't control the future when it comes to dealing with a communist country in which we helped to build into a powerhouse, so it all was leading to this situation anyways as a result of. Year's of greed and ignorance caused money making to blind our nation's focus on the balance between national security and free trade or reckless commerce that would eventually endanger our national security and free trade.

Many of us saw it coming, and saw the recklessness of it all, but greed and lust over took many traitors not trader's heart's and mind's in it all.

He's married to a Chinese wife, so one has to figure that into his opinions when he speaks. Nothing against his marriage or her, but there could be some bias involved.

If china invades Taiwan and the US comes to their aid do you consider that as the US starting a war we cant win and has no purpose?

Very obvious bias

Hopefully that doesn't happen, but in the volital situation going on currently (everywhere on the global chess board), we have to be a master of the game that is being played.

We have to weigh out every grain of sand as it begins to pile up on one side of the scale. Global war must be averted, and it can be by using the very device's on trade that we all possess as pieces upon the chess board. Keep in mind that causing severe pain to common people who just want commerce to work is a precarious thing that China will use to it's utmost advantage, otherwise if it thinks that it has reached a pinnacle in it's ability to challenge American global stability on the world stage. It's all been leading to this anyways, but greed and the lust for riches and power has blinded us from the many strategic chess moves that have been used on the board to date.

Think about this - Putin has convinced his people to die by the thousands for what he sees as a just cause against not only Ukraine, but against western meddling in the eastern hemisphere.

So you're implying that Mr. Peace Maker in Ukraine will start a shooting war with China to save face that hes the loser that he is?

If China starts a shooting war with Taiwan, then why would anyone consider that as a war we in the U.S. started ?

Yet you wholeheartedly support the Ukrainian war and the 200 billion dollars we've sent there

Actually, it was West, who has effectively convinced Russian people that they should die (and kill) in thousands or even in millions to survive.

Technically China can't started a shooting war with Taiwan, because officially Taiwan is a part of China.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Nor do Americans trust the EUs

The current leadership of the EU is the enemy of humanity

I was asking about a communist invasion of Taiwan

You are not describing trump

Only Xi holds the decision to invade Taiwan

Good for you

Actually, it was Bolshevik's who has convinced Russian people that they should die (and kill) in thousands, or even millions to survive.

Been that way since the Petrograd Revolution. After all of those millions of deaths, you end up with a worse version of the Tsarist government you overthrew.

The government in Ukraine is a government you created, and now you want control of, even after admitting it is corrupt Socialist government the October Revolution pushed for decades.

So tell this westerner tovarich. When will the Russian people finally take responsibility for their own decisions, and stop hiding behind Lenins, Stalins, and Putins?
