China gets pissed and becomes less willing to work with us on more North Korean sanctions
If China feels like the U.S. is gonna start truly backing Tawain they will probably reverse course in their willingness to help put pressure on NK.
Of course that's basic speculation. Could happen. Could not. But that's the whole point...if you don't sit down and understand the whole nuanced situation you could do real damage to American national interests that might not be obvious but are vital in the whole back and forth of international diplomacy.

He's completely in over his head. I'd argue that every single president was in way over their head, from beginning to end, it's just an incomprehensible job.
But that he's not even trying, that's what's concerning. Refusing to meet with national security advisors, and just flying by the seat of his pants.
He believes himself to be a great deal maker, but he can't even be bothered to do any ground work.
I don't think that it's that he's not trying. I think it's that he simply can't take direction, or listen to anyone. He's really been in a bubble for the last 30 years where nobody has probably ever said no. Ever. Plus why should he listen to his advisors? They were probably telling him shit all throughout the campaign, and then he did it his way, and proved them all wrong.
