The official Chinese communist newspaper celebrated America's "complete humiliation." But what should concern everyone is that Beijing aimed a specific message to the people of Taiwan, warning, "If [America] can make such a huge miscalculation and suffer such a catastrophic defeat in Afghanistan, then who is going to trust its judgement in East Asia, or the South China Sea?"
Today, communist China launched massive assault drills off the coast of Taiwan, putting an exclamation point on their previous warning.
It's likely there's something else going on behind the scenes. Communist Chinese officials may be telling Taiwanese leaders in private communications, "Our patience is running out. You see how weak and unreliable the Americans are. You see how strong we are. You've got a very short window of time to make a deal with us."
If such a deal happens, I won't be surprised if Biden runs to a microphone and blames the Taiwanese--or President Trump.
