I would love to see Trump bring democracy to the US. He's mostly tried to eliminate it. Autocrats don't really get democracy.

Well first we live in a Constitutional Representative Republic with Democratic elements, but what has Trump done to eliminate Democracy? Didn't the legislature or courts have anything to say, or are you just lying again?

Hong Kong would be lucky to have Trump.

I know a Filipina who laments the fact that the Philippines gained its independence. In her words, "we all could have been citizens."

Done quickly and effectively with a US carrier in port and another in the South China sea, China would do nothing.



The national government in China would be more worried about internal problems than fighting the US. The national TV network didn't even report on the demonstrations. There are literally people in China who watch the news who have no idea of the HK protests a week later.
