Is the Tangerine Tyrant about to abandon the US commitment to keep arms sales to Taiwan as an issue between Washington & Taipei?
On his way to China to meet Xi Jinping, Trump said he was happy to discuss with Xi China's desire for the US to pause sales to the island's defence forces.
This suggests, that the grifter is about to shake down Taiwan (and at least threaten to halt arms support).
More transactional politics looks to be coming for the Taiwanese.
