January 1, Biden: Military Says Pelosi’s Plan “Not a Good Idea”

Published

on

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is planning on visiting Taiwan next month, and the military doesn’t think it’s a great idea, according to President Joe Biden.

“Well, I think that the military thinks it’s not a good idea right now,” Biden said when asked about Pelosi’s potential trip. “But I don’t know what the status of it is.”

However, Michèle Flournoy, who served as Undersecretary of Defense for Policy during the Obama administration, applauded Pelosi’s decision.

“I would say good for her,” Flournoy said. “We need to show Taiwan that we have their backs, that we are committed to support[ing] their self-defense, and that we care, and we’re going to show up, and we’re going to try to deter any unprovoked aggression against them.”

Joseph Nye, former U.S. Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs, cautioned against the trip.

“I think we ought to be careful about not having high-level visitors to Taiwan,” Nye said. “What we need to do is deter Beijing from thinking they can use force. But at the same time, we don’t want to stick a finger in Xi Jinping’s eye, and provoke them into making some rash decision.”

    If the basic reasoning behind the trip is to insure Taiwan that we indeed have there back then let’s not make a move that might give China the idea that we’re pulling a PUTIN, hey you in the west look at me I came to China to visit my comrades to show the world that we’re nobody to mess with. I’m sure not only China and Russia but the rest of the world knows we will stand behind Taiwan no matter who the aggressor is, there’s no need for (anything you can do I can do better) tactics to stir up anything. Everyone in any country in the world has to know that if the SHIT HIT’S THE FAN there are NO WINNERS, Right?

    Make sure she flies a commercial no-frills flight that doesn’t serve alcohol and provides box meals!
