Taiwan threat from China serious, House GOP chairman says
WASHINGTON (AP) The chairman of the House Select Committee on China said Saturday the U.S. must take seriously the threat posed to Taiwan, as Beijing launched military drills around the island in the aftermath of the Taiwanese president's meetings with American lawmakers.
Rep. Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., who attended the meeting with President Tsai Ing-wen in California last week, told The Associated Press that he plans to lead his committee in working to shore up the island government's defenses, encouraging Congress to expedite military aid to Taiwan.
I think it all just points to what is obvious, Gallagher told the AP, arguing that Chinese President Xi Jinping is intent on reunifying Taiwan with the mainland.
"We need to be moving heaven and earth to enhance our deterrence and denial posture, so that Xi Jinping concludes that he just cant do it," Gallagher said

Wow!!!!.
A repuke who actually gets it.
Although I do have to be fair, most repukes, and Democrats, do get the fact that we do have to confront China on their intent to integrate Taiwan into the Chinese mainland by force if necessary.
Can't wait for the obvious China defenders to chime in.
