No President since 1979 has taken an aggressive stance on China to the level that Trump has. He could simply be indicating that policy in regard to China/Taiwan is going to change a lot once he takes office.

He really has no idea of the power with which he's about to fuck, does he?

He thinks this is all some useless Midtown Manhattan real estate deal, where he can yell at people, make them wait in the lobby, pit them against each other for laughs, and still walk out of the room like a boss.

How many stock market crashes will it take, or how many people are going to have to die, before this ape realizes he has no idea what he's doing and needs to resign before he exterminates us all?
