Is McCarthy still going to visit Taiwan just to stir up shit between the U.S. and China?

International diplomacy is done between the current administration and a foreign government
so why if McCarthy i still going to Taiwan it will be to stir up shit. End of story.

China urges McCarthy not to visit Taiwan.

BTW McCarthy is only speaker of the House because of GOP cheating aka gerrymandering.

1. Why not ......

seems like the GQP wants a physical war with someone so they can twist it and blame it on the Democrats.

2. Pelosi just visited Taiwan in August

China will likely see a pattern with two Speakers visiting in a row.

3. Yes, and boy was there a lot of wailing over that Pelosi trip by the repubs.

4. Some Democrats too

I remember the posts here in August from a few of them, and of course disagreeing (she had every right to go). The WH urged her not to go, btw.

5. Speaker Pelosi was not a member of the current administration

I was totally fine with her going.

People need to pick a lane on these things.

Maybe a gigantic Thanksgiving-parade style Winnie the Pooh.
