[quote=FlyerInHi]Trump is probably too ignorant to know the Taiwan implications. If the president of Taiwan (or any other country) calls to congratulate, he’d be like “oh, ok. Put him through”.
Taiwan played him. There is no protocol and few gatekeepers to reach a president-elect.[/quote]
that’s the typical liberal portrayal and narrative of Trump that they are pushing. I have come to believe that is definitely not the case.
in this case, I’m sure he was briefed on the topic and decided to “say it like it is” and cry out that the emperor (one china policy) has no cloth.
I have read a lot of articles on this since last night, and it isn’t just China getting all worked up, every single liberal media outlet are all in a huge panic.
Brian, this thing is well played by Trump and it makes liberals look really really bad. afterall, Taiwan is the good guys here and the liberals are looking like a bunch of appeasement happy lackeys ready to kowtow to China at every step of the way.
