Then again, the CCP has never ruled Taiwan either…

Oh yeah that's like exactly the same situation.

  1. Send US military to "protect" one side in the Chinese civil war and occupy parts of China.
  2. Say you're in favor of eventual peaceful reunification, but actually prevent it for decades.
  3. Break promise and claim the territory was never really part of China to begin with.
  4. Pretend you're the victim and China is "expansionist".
  5. World War 3?

Or, you know, you could actually respect the right to self determination of the Taiwanese people, rather than "America bad"ing your way to imperialism
