A lawfully established process, yes, but somewhat unlike that which we have in our land. We don't spend years in the election process and we get more bang for our buck. Russia has always had a czar, that is unlikely to change any time soon

As to HK, neither you nor we will go to war regarding that unfortunate place

I'm willing to take right now 100,000 and more of their brainiac refugees right now . I so admire their people of Taiwan and their struggle for true liberty as opposed to the spoiled panty waist thugs who have taken to the American streets .

Hey Clete, you quoted Tom, not me. The relationship between two leaders is best conducted between them without the public posturing and politics to feed the base. Nobody likes the dufus ways of chaos and certainly not the outcome of uncertainty he has so far.
I'm willing to take right now 100,000 and more of their brainiac refugees right now . I so admire their people of Taiwan and their struggle for true liberty as opposed to the spoiled panty waist thugs who have taken to the American streets .
Bet you would. Those Brainiac's smart and admirable though they be probably should fight for their freedom like all us freedom loving people have, and taking to the streets to keep fighting for that freedom.

Yes, we will take them too, add to our considerable chinese population and make ourselves even more unpopular. However, we won't go to war over it, HK is a lost cause. As to me mistaking you for Tom, just seemed a continuation of our conversation and your ability to find graphics

If we can kick Russia out of the G8 over Crimea, why give China a free pass over Taiwan? If you can have a trade was over trade imbalance, why not over Taiwan? If you can tear up treaties on a whim against everybody, why not for Taiwan? Too many options available Clete, besides capitulation or a war, however you define it.

Kicking Russia out cost you nothing, tokenism. But will you kick China out over HK or Taiwan, much more to lose there

That doesn't mean it shouldn't be done, whatever the global disruptions. Screw the capitalists who divide the world for personal profits.

Godless, cruel, and inhuman as they may be, they are one of the biggest dogs in the world. We have no choice but to deal with them in some form or fashion. Ever try to ignore a big mean dog in the neighbor hood who has no leash and will bite you?
