The View from Taiwan: Tsai Calls Trump
- Neliquat 10y agoWell stated. If only people still thought on articles a few days before publishing them. I will stand on my lawn waving my fist at yunguns publishing first instead of best, but I know it has always been an issue. How do we promote better discourse over clickbait?
- ScottBurson 10y agoKey quote: Hey, American progressives! The future President of the United States called the head of a state that directly elects its president, which has a world leading national health insurance program, no guns, and may soon legalize gay marriage. Check your values: which side are you on here? I didn't vote for Trump, but yeah, I think we should recognize Taiwan.
- em3rgent0rdr 10y agoI've noticed most of my facebook friends (who happen to be democrats/progressives) are absolutely furious with Trump accepting the call. I would hope they would be celebrating, as this article suggests.
- squozzer 10y agoThe reason so many in media and government act the way they do about China is they want the US to become the next China. With aforementioned media / government people in the analogue to China's Central Committee, of course.
- squozzer 10y agoI don't know why people seem so eager for Taiwan to join - or at least not upset - China. Look at Hong Kong.
