Agreed. After this threat-ALL of the Senate should go for a visit.

China wants to make sure that beautiful taiwan is safe and secure from any danger from foreign threats and the PLA is ready to serve.
While I'm sure you're not a Chinese bot, your posts could lead other less discerning posters to think that you are a Chinese bot. I'm here to help.

Ummm, whatever. If you prefer I could just write out Communist Chinese instead of the abbreviation. What m I supposed to call them in this enlightened year of our Lord 2022? They are the Chinese communists. Chicomms for short. I still call the Russians Ivan too. Does that offend your sense of modern linguistics as well?

Pardon me all to hell. By the way since we're being nit picky, "Taiwanese" and Viet Nam are proper nouns. Hence they are capitalized. Or is that some other new language evolution I've yet to hear of?

I like the use of "Chicomms". Anything that makes the people who dislike it ... well dislike it is a step in the right direction. I salute your use of it as an irritant. Nobody in America should extend China even the smallest degree of respect, understanding or courtesy. A despicable filthy enemy country that is literally and figuratively a plague upon the face of the Earth.

I'd like to trade Nancy Pelosi to the CCP in exchange for 24 cases of toothpicks, please.

All I can think is, what is the point of Pelosi going to Taiwan? Is she especially knowledgable about Taiwan, her Mandarin is great, what exactly does she bring to the table? This is narcissistic on her part. Now if it was Hunter at least we know there would be some "deliverables" but what does that 80 year old woman think she is going to accomplish? Shouldn't it be the SOS that goes if anybody?

China can go and limber up in the corner and then indulge in some autofellatiollio as far as I'm concerned, screw them.

The only reason they have any wealth at all is because of us. They'd be a third world dung hole if it weren't for them being admited into the world trade organization, which we facilitated. Not sure that was a good move after all.

The US should really think before having this idiotic moron visit anywhere.

.

I completely agree, we cannot allow China or any other country to tell us what to do as a nation. I wonder if Nancy Pelosi will go ahead with her visit to Taiwan or cancel?
