Trump is a lying Putin coward. No one in the world should ever believe or trust him. He needs to be tried for treason in his dealings with Russia. If found guilty the penalty is death by firing squad. He deserves to be executed He is trying to destroy America.
I would. Watch, listen and learn. Be smart. People think he’s not serious or someone will stop him or he can’t be that bad or stupid. He is. It’s proven.
The clock is ticking on Taiwan. Their huge chip maker is moving operations to the U.S. and once that happens don't expect Trump to do anything to stop China from moving in.
Just "start rethinking" right now?!!! It’s interesting how people ignore obvious warning signs, even when Trump has been clear from the start. But hey, at least you're taking a moment to rethink things now—better late than never!
China will take a run at Taiwan now. Trump
Is breaking all America’s promises and treaties. We have a deal to protect Taiwan, as there was to protect Ukraine.
We are the World’s Biggest Loser because of Trump!
As an act of resistance- Dems should boycott DJT’s speech to Congress- let MAGA see an empty chamber on Fox News - no more being collegiate and playing by the rules
Taiwan might have better chances going the special economic zone route under mainland China instead of relying upon Mob Boss Trump's inevitable demands
I'm sorry to write this, but Taipei needs to realize that very soon Trump, together with Xi, will demand that Taiwanese "voluntarily" become communists...
The whole world is doing that. Soon US economy will start to feel it too. Why would you buy strategic resources (defence but also other stuff as IT) from a very unreliable 'partner'. Bye bye leader of the world.
This comes as TSMC announces a $100 billion investment in US-based chip fabs. They may be figuring that Trump won't save Taiwan from a Chinese invasion, so having capacity elsewhere is a hedge. As long as they burn their factories to the ground as soon as the Chinese step foot on Taiwanese soil!
The CHIPS Act was certainly part of it, but this is a new deal. Not saying that it wasn't in the works (you don't make $100B decision over night), but by letting Trump take credit, Taiwan gets on his good side and he already hates China. Just say - smart politics by Taiwan at this chaotic moment.
That’s true, but tRumps USA cannot be trusted to keep supplying weapons and would they really trust them to honor any security guarantees should China blockade the island
Trust? Fuck no. Is Trump unpredictable enough for China to think twice? Maybe. What does Taiwan have to lose flattering Trump's ego for something they were probably going to do anyway? How do you think they do business in China now? Same model
"Fair-weather friend" was formerly considered an insult in the USA. But even that pejorative term is too kind to be applied to the Trump / Vance debacle; "whore for sale to the highest bidder" is more appropriate for them. What a shameful turn of events for our beloved nation.

It's the only thing that guarantees their security from China at this point.
He is no one's ally.
