I’ve been hearing that it’s “coming” for over 15 years now (and I used to say it myself). But sooner or later we have to accept that it isn’t true. The laws of physics are not going to change. Look at where this wishful thinking has gotten us.
LOL, @LaborwaveCCCP, Trump, @RepAndyBarr, and their totally evil party, the GOP, have been supporting Nazis in Ukraine for the last 8 years. Exactly like Biden, Pelosi, and my 90% evil party, the DNC.

An important point to understand regarding Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan:
The US isn’t “playing with fire” by pushing ahead with its instigation against China. It is intentionally trying to spark a fire that it thinks will burn China more than it burns itself. 🧵
