We should do no trade with China. The only peaceful China is an economically weak China. I suppose Trump doesn’t mind funding war hungry Marxist’s.

They’ll be itching for a hot war if we don’t. Trump’s the first POTUS to actually take them on and not treat them like a poor child needing help to develop beyond a third world country. They have aspirations to become the leading power in the world. Make no mistake about it.

They’ll use our money to continue their rearmament. Good luck, Taiwan.

I’d publicly endorse a defensive pact with Taiwan that I’d try to get Japan and S Korea in on. Fucj China.

I know history and thinking aren’t your game. Routinely you prove it. Like here. Tell me about Japans nuclear aresanal during the 1920’s and 1930’s. For a guy who insists others are idiots you sure do ***** up a lot. Tom, normally I don’t advise this, but if you’re ever peering out over a ledge and thinking ‘the world would be better off without me’ you’d be right. Take David Lee Roth’s advice and jump.

It's why it was the focus of multiple arms treaties in the 20s and 30s. And I only see your bull#### when someone else quotes you. 5 minutes ago, The_Dude said: Oh. My. God.
