Perhaps Americans should just leave South Korea , they seem to have no worries of Kim Jong Un and his backers the Red Chinese Communist. And they will be content with all that wonderful Chinese money.
What happened to Trump’s promise to reign in China with trade tariffs? If the US needs to show China a lesson, then this is the time. US should stick up against China for economically bullying the US ally that agreed to THAAD. But it’s increasingly looking like it was all empty promise from Trump.
In the grand scheme of things, THAAD is a pimple on the ass of US/China relations. There are much bigger fish. Not to mention – once THAAD is up and running in Korea, the Chinese are going to shut up about it anyway. They are just making sure that everyone gets the impression that they are putting up a fight against the evil Americans so they don’t lose face.
not to mention the South China sea dispute with China building that island. If the US doesn’t follow through with their words, their credibility will be shot. And that will affect how other countries in Asia will line up, afraid that China’s bullying will not be stoppable. That only strengthens China at the expense of the US which is increasingly looking like they will not be able to do anything against China, and come under Chinese influence themselves.
“China treats every country as an equal partner, big or small,” said Fu. “Small neighbors or big powers in the world. We think countries are equals. But I think the U.S. does not appear to have a habit of treating others as equals.”
Tom … err … Tyson … you must have posted the wrong link … because that article in no way suggests that Trump’s “rhetoric” has been silenced. Quite the contrary actually.

Is South Korea left hung out to dry?

Disregard THAAD for a moment. What happened to Trump’s determination to counter China make them pay for unfair trading?

Umm … he’s only been in office for a little over a month. You don’t solve trade disputes between the world’s two largest economies overnight.
Your can of early with that assumption.
Again you are premature in your assumptions.
All indications are pointing that it’s not.
All reports cite Trump back peddling and instead favor cozy relations with China.

The money quote from China, is this quote:
“China treats every country as an equal partner, big or small,” said Fu. “Small neighbors or big powers in the world. We think countries are equals. But I think the U.S. does not appear to have a habit of treating others as equals.”
The Chinese even agree with me, Trumps rhetorics on China have been silenced.
