Trump was the guy that brought up China as a threat.

No. The Asian pivot under Obama is well known.

Previous democrat Presidents have bent over backwards to enable trillions of dollars to flow to the ChiComs.

Nixon, a Republican, is credited with opening up China. The Republicans came up with opening up China and trading with them would democratize China.

And the Chinese won't invade Taiwan right away with dudes wading ashore on assault crafts Douglas MacArthur-style. They'll come over as rando workers in small groups with their equipment smuggled in the bottom of innocent-looking cargo holds.

The Chinese infiltration of Taiwan has stepped up recently with the military as a prime target.

This is why every time there's a random person washing windows in Taipei or elsewhere, there's a Taiwanese Helper Cop (youngish unarmed dude with no gun but a phone and a radio) watching them do it.

News to me, Why window washers?
