If you don’t think for one second that our adversaries are considering that our country is being distracted so much that they don’t think they could possibly start trying to get away with things in their military. You should think twice. I can’t imagine what Taiwan is thinking right now. REPOST - ThreadSky

Been living in Taiwan since 93. It's like having a room next to a schizophrenic 600lb gorilla with balsa wood for a fence. We go on with our lives normally, even though it's more tenuous. If anything happens, it will be in the next 5 yrs. As for America, what else need to be said, that hasn't been

said already, except we lament the self-destruction by 48% of America. The problems have long been coming, over many admins. But Trump is like seeing a car crash happening over 9 yrs. Unfortunately, the window is closing fast on American democracy. Not even sure if America can ever get back together

Chinese Navy are doing live fire exercises between Australia and New Zealand right now. They’re in international waters, but why there, and why now?

Unfortunately, this is like classroom argy bargy "Sir, he started it! I was just doing my homework, he started it!"

They're of the view, if Aust & other Intnl navies cross the Twn straits or approach the Chinese coast citing right of way, they'll do the same & up the ante & say see how you like it

True. I personally saw it as their own version of a ‘freedom of navigation’ trip, which Australia participates in, along with the US. No one is seriously concerned. But just an example of what the post was getting at. There may be a message, there may not be.

Wouldn’t be surprised if muskrump chaos invites another 911 🤦‍♀️

Not sure what Taiwan is thinking about what they probably should be thinking is that they are on their own.

Pretty much known this for some time. There's apprehension, but not living in fear. People go on with their lives, perhaps absent mindedly.

All our adversaries are waiting and salivating.
