If we're lucky, China will fix it where she can't leave. Winning! This isn't over and there will be some sort of retaliation from China. No way will they accept this humiliation. I do wonder if the only reason her plane didn't go down in flames is that they weren't willing to kill a woman?

Twitter is blowing up with "The whole world is laughing at China"--in the East, that kind of losing face is NOT tolerated--they will HAVE to do something......

When DOES she leave? I hadn't heard how long her stay is--just a few hours, or a few days?

Btw, someone mentioned 9th of Av. It's Saturday.

So are the air raid sirens still sounding in China, and the fighter jets from China still on route to Taiwan?

As John Wayne said--this thing ain't over yet............

You aren't getting it. China makes most of our critical medical, transport and computer vital supplies that we can't import anymore. So piglosi just made sure that our dysfunctional economy stays dysfuctional.
It is a pyhric victory at best. Go listen to boots on tte ground by southern prepper to understand what another year of NO CHINES SPARE PARTS MEANS FOR THE USA.
We just guaranteed our economic doom courtesy og the demoncrats.

But can China afford to not sell that stuff to us? What do they do with all those workers in those factories?

Housecarl and Daniel, something about massing tanks on the invasion bases makes me nervous. I will hold off on the fizzy water. :D

I heard and then saw (and subsequently lost) a link that said she's spending the night and staying over until tomorrow. Did not give details on her departure.

Didn't Nancy once lie about being under enemy fire in another country? (can't remember where she claimed it was but remember it was a total fabrication)

Maybe this time she'll get a chance to have it happen IN TRUTH........

Again asking the folks who posted reports of Chinese military craft on route to Taiwan--any updates?

I'm still trying to figure out the purpose of this whole trip. Maybe some good sales.

Probably had a few million of taxpayer money in the budget that she needed to spend. And ice cream and booze were all accounted for already this month.

Listening right now to Mike Gallegher and he gave the best reason yet--

This is a last-ditch, "Hail Mary" ploy to try to RAISE RESPECT enough for the Demoncrat party to get those ESSENTIAL few points up in the polls / voting so that Demos "might" have a prayer of holding on to the Senate in November

Makes sense to me

Looking at the video, it seems as if the entire road is filled with Chinese tanks in central #Xiamen .

So these make me think CHina will go after the Taiwanese islands off the coast of China. Some are only a couple miles from the mainland. The amphib tanks in the first video on the beach are not swimming the hundred miles to Taiwan proper but are more than capable of getting to those islands. Be a straightforward run as I cant imagine Taiwan would waste airpower trying to defend them right under Chinese mainland air defenses.

ETA Xiamen is less than 2 miles from the Taiwanese controlled Kinmen islands.

Next question…. What will China do (this is certainly not over)?

> Take a few of Taiwan’s minor islands/rocks. May be enough to “save face”
> Close Taiwan strait to all air and sea traffic
> Totally embargo Taiwan, complete closure of airspace and shipping
> Cyber warfare; heavy and relentless
> Nothing

This question may be worthy of its own thread?
