[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]
Wrong – I have seen some of the Defense contracts between Taiwan and China. The act tends to put more of an honest face to what has really been going on behind the scenes. By the way, what aircraft (fighters) does Taiwan fly? Who provides their training? (for me, this question is rhetorical – but the answers are kind of revealing).
China has been getting pushy with the Spratly Islands, the US has been tip-toe’ing around that too much.
