1. Because he would help Taiwan surrender on the first day and it’s not competitive or something?

2. Whelp. Here we go.

3. So that means China will indeed invade during his lifetime.

4. Nobody believes this orange old turd. Just prepare against him.

5. Trump wouldn’t do 1 fucking thing to stop China. If anything he’d offer to help, just to take a cut himself.

6. Trump is confident? What has this source been smoking?

7. Nobody believes this piece of shit. 

8. Damn, poor Taiwan does not deserve to get invaded like this

9. Why WOULDNT they invade during trumps term. The man’s a coward that loves sucking dictator cock. He’ll end up helping with weapons most likely.

10. LOL…And that’s exactly why they will. China sees Trumps weakness in Europe and they smell blood.

11. Trump is such a coward and China knows he wouldn’t do shit. Plus, America is the weakest it’s ever been after snubbing literally all their allies. If I was a betting man, I’d place my bet on an invasion happening later in his term when everything has truely become a raging dumpster fire in America.

12. Does this mean the invasion starts tomorrow?

13. Oh yes it will.

    March 5, 2025 (Reuters): [China will work to firmly advance ‘reunification’ with Taiwan, premier says](https://www.reuters.com/world/china/china-will-work-firmly-advance-reunification-with-taiwan-premier-2025-03-05/)

15. Maybe.

    If you’re paying attention, TSMC Arizona is up and running around 2028 and will be delivering 2nm chips.

    So around then would be what Xi should be looking at.

16. Trump’s confidence is like snake oil salesman saying, “Trust me. This will be cure all for all your illness.” 😛

17. Trump is an idiot. If he says Taiwan won’t be invaded then you can put money down that it will.

18. Taiwan doomed confirmed.

19. Here’s the secret translation: China is definitely invading Taiwan during his term.

20. Like anyone can’t believe anything from the US these days

21. Jim Cramer says NVDA is in BACK UP THE TRUCK mode

22. Until Trump tries to give Taiwan to China.

23. Yeah, if there’s anybody’s word you can take at face value it’s Donald J Trump’s. He’s never lied about anything!

24. Important note.

    China doesn’t need to attack Taiwan to take it.

    They need only to blocade it which is pretty easy considering it’s a small island.

    Taiwanese and US will be forced to either attack blockading fleets.

    Or not

    Taiwan will have no choice then but to surrender.

25. Narrator: he was wrong

26. Trump is confident about a lot of things. Doesn’t mean he’s right. In fact he’s been more wrong than right.

27. Given that he thinks Ukraine invaded Russia, I’m sure he will try to spin it as Taiwan attacking China….

28. Meanwhile, in the last 9 weeks China has been cutting undersea internet cables by dragging anchors, they have cut 5 so far. Apparently one of there conclusions from the Russia / Ukraine war was that outside communications should be cut off before a invasion.

29. So here is what is going to happen. China will invade taiwan. Taiwan president asks for help. Trump calls taiwan the aggressor for refusing to negotiate, proposes the transfer or tmsc chip tech to US for the promise of a verbal non binding guarantee. JD Vance will ask the taiwanese president “have you even thanked us yet?”

30. So that means it’s going to happen, right?

31. Why is he confident in dictators? Shouldn’t we have learnt our lesson by now?

32. So I guess it’s definitely happening then!

33. well crap, then it definitely will happen i guess

34. Is that a dare? It kinda sounds like a dare.

35. He’s a fucking idiot.

36. Yeah, Trump says he’s the smartest man alive but is functionally illiterate. He says a lot of shit.

37. This will age like unrefrigerated milk.

38. He was confident he could bring down inflation too.

39. When it happens he’ll say nobody could have known

40. does China know about this?

41. Trump is confidently stupid, and that is about it.

42. China is about to invade Taiwan.

43. If Trump is ‘confident’ then you know they are invading in a week

44. I’ll see you in the morning when they announce the invasion 

45. America does not care about Taiwan. America cares about chips.

    The Chips Act is an attempt to dissociate US military spending from defending an island thousands of miles away full of non-white non-Americans.

    Trump says he hates the Chips Act. He doesn’t. He hates that his name isn’t on it. He’ll probably change that.

    TL;DR Taiwan is fucked.

46. Headlines in two weeks: “China invades Taiwan”.

    Two years from now, Republicans will say “Why did Taiwan invade China?!?”

47. *”Trump confident China will not invade Taiwan during his term.”*

    *”Trump confident he will end the Russo-Ukrainian War within 24 hours of taking office.”*

    Well, I feel better already.

48. That means it’s happening.
