Why didn’t China ever help their ally when we decimated Irans Air Force, Navy and took out all of their leadership?


China's global dominance strategy is just like mine was when I was the undisputed Risk Champion......by using persuasive arguments and psychology I would convince others I wasn't the threat, eventually the others would weaken themselves fighting and I would move in and snatch victory.

Being that media has largely ignored you may want to consider different. If it was a failure then 24/7 media would still be dragging on

First we go ahead and allow 500,000 visa's for the CCP, allow them to buy up our farmland

Our university system is struggling as it is. We need those paying customers. And the farmland issue is one of the most stupid ones I’ve ever heard of. As I’ve been posting for years, if the shite hits the fan with China we will confiscate the land and then we will have the land AND their money.

I want China to invest heavily in America, and I don’t want Americans investing in China.

Why do we, the country broadly, need those customers?

What the frick do you want me to do, ignore things that I don't like and put my fingers in my ears and scream NAH UHHH!!! ?


Well that's kinda the norm for the cult, so yes---they expect rational ppl to do just this.

Let Trump sell his fraudulent phones and enrich his family and friends in ways we have never seen, all while the regular Joe American sucks it up and enjoys higher inflation.

Eat your cake and shut up.

Most likely, Trump and the US is giving into China in exchange for something Israel wants. Probably something relating to the Iran conflict.

? If there's something you disagree with, I'm all ears. What I said makes logical sense to me China is buying and selling from Iran still but other than that they have not provided direct support to their ally. It'll be interesting to see if that changes. I doubt they were threatening to jump in, but do they stop selling certain materials to Iran? It'll be interesting to see.

If you have a better hypothesis as to why Trump is BFFs with China now and is cool with 500,000 students that likely steal from us, and other concessions then please let us know. Something beyond moving the goal posts.

Well, that’s a good question that I don’t know how to answer. On one hand, the universities are employment programs for liberals. Let them fail. On the other hand, our university system, particularly the STEM programs, are a huge resource for the US, and the 500,000 Chinese are largely in STEM. If we banned them then STEM programs in France, Germany, and probably Asia would step up and challenge our supremacy. I guess Trump took a look at that and figured the impact would be worse for us than for China.

how so?
During the Potatobrain Administration, Xi advanced aggressiveness of the Taiwan conversation to "China will reunite with Taiwan." It was a step up from past holdings that "China and Taiwan should reunite." Immediately our press began issuing "not if, but when," proclamations about China taking Taiwan.

In some instances, based on Beijing's messaging, our CCP media sycophants referred to the inevitability of China "retaking" Taiwan -- an absurdity fully establishing our media buy-in to CCP propaganda that Taiwan is a "breakaway republic." In fact, Russia has more claim to Ukraine than China has to Taiwan. Put differently, a republic cannot "breakaway" from something to which it never belonged.

Rumors circulated in early 2026 that Xi intended to confront Trump with the "inevitable" proposition in their March summit. But a couple of things occurred in the interlude. The US walked into Venezuela and flipped its allegiance (and oil) away from Cuba and the CCP in a matter of hours. The US followed that by running through Chinese military technology in Iran like a hot knife through butter. Again, massively interrupting Chines oil imports in the process.

So when Xi and Trump finally did have the Taiwan conversation recently, there was no proclamation of "We are going to take Taiwan." Rather it was a Xi query, "Would the US militarily intervene, IF we invaded Taiwan?" That may seem a subtle shift. It isn't.

I ain’t feeling that. Too definitive, too straightforward, leaves none of that vague wiggle room all leaders love….I just dont see that one, Jebrodiah.
