https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/01...wan-visit/index.html The CCP has been sable rattling a lot and warning dire military consequences if Speaker Pelosi were to visit Taiwan. What say you? Do you think Speaker Pelosi should visit Taiwan? | ||

No, not at this point. Little to gain. But it's largely up to Pelosi. The US government cannot give orders to her, at least not easily. | |||

Also, I don't think she is the sort that takes orders well. ![]()

I haven’t been following the situation closely, but it seems to me that this visit was badly timed, if nothing else.

Yes, I looked into it. She's violating the US one China policy and provoking nuclear war. I guess you have to find something to do when you can't busy yourself with insider trading scams. | |||

No clue. Why would she do this unless the administration supported it? I can't make sense of it. | |||

Well, "the administration" clearly does NOT support it, though they weren't willing (for some reason) to go to the mat to get her not to. I may be wrong, but I make sense of it by invoking the dysfunction of American foreign policy ... i.e. a Congress-critter with a very local or state motive can do something totally reckless from a national perspective because it's a winner when appealing to the relevant 30K people in her district who matter. | |||

https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/0...ent-visit/index.html Why is the government speaking out of both sides of its mouth? Why is all this money being being spent on, "the empire" while Americans at home (including a massive number of veterans) suffer grievously? | |||
