The U.S. never had a one China policy. It officially acknowledges that China has a one China policy. It might sound the same, but it is not. Which it why it also has the policy to sell Taiwan weapons to defend itself, and sometimes the policy to actually defend Taiwan. Note that it’s policy on China is changing. Obama started to build a pacific alliance, Trump was a bull in a China shop but escalated the policy of disengagement from China. Biden has maintained Trump’s policy even though it would help with his biggest domestic problem (inflation) to reverse it, while also making clear he will defend Taiwan even if it means war with China.
