#1 Dear Beijing,

How about a trade?

#2 I'm reading that Taiwan is offering to take in the Hong Kong people and Trump has pissed off Xi by opening arm sales to Taiwan that includes anti-aircraft and ship devices.

#5 If you have to sweeten the deal, throw in San Francisco and LA County west of Pasadena.

#6 Keep us out of this. Best idea so far is trade HK for CA, then PR for GL. If they are dumb enough to take PR for Greenland, then that is a wonderful deal! I'm afraid we are probably stuck (pun intended) with California.

#7 If the Chicoms move violently on Hong Kong our role should be to stand by while all of red china's neighbors freak.

The F16V sale to Taiwan is a start. But we might trade weapons for Cahm Ran Bay or Subic/Clark. Likewise with Japan. They might sell some of their highly capable diesel subs to Taiwan.

#8 ...our roll is to loudly demonstrate that we will read and refuse to buy anything labeled 'Made in China'.

#9 Imagine if the populations of Hong Kong and Puerto Rico suddenly swapped. I think the corrupt leaders of Puerto Rico would find themselves at home in the PRC and Puerto Rico might start making money instead of being a money pit.
