Well Sarah Palin seems very excited about the prospect of war with China.

The ghostwritten post on Palin's website links to this article on the conservative Daily Caller:  

The U.S. Navy challenged China’s vast claims to the South China Sea on Thursday, Navy officials revealed. 

The U.S. Navy conducted the third freedom-of-navigation operation under President Donald Trump in the South China Sea on Thursday. The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS John McCain (DDG-56) sailed within 12 nautical miles of Mischief Reef in the Spratly Island chain, according to Fox News. 

A Navy P-8 reconnaissance and surveillance aircraft reportedly flew nearby.

Now these intermittent challenges to other countries by each other's military are fairly common, as demonstrated here in Alaska by Russian jets entering our air defense zone repeatedly over the last forty years or so.

Typically there is a little chest pounding, some diplomatic reminders of boundaries and sovereignty and everybody goes about their business.

But things are a little different right now.

For one thing we have an unhinged commander-in-chief who is not only comparing penis size with North Korea, but also bitching that China is not helping to keep them under control.
You know, when you are trying to convince another country to aid you with a potentially dangerous adversary it does not seem to be in your best interests to troll them with your military.

Apparently it is Donald Trump's goal during his stay in the White House to alienate every country he possibly can before leaving office.

Except for Russia of course, because THEY are Donald Trump's only true friend.

That is why they gifted him with an election victory.

      Low intelligence and great ignorance. They can't spot a huckster. They don't realize the RW propaganda they think is the truth is anti-regulatory BS designed to get them to vote against their self interests and in the favor of the interests of wealthy and powerful oligarchs. They will die ignorant and stupid and angry while blaming folks who are not their enemies('libtards' and minorities). Trump loves these fools.

    Former Russian Ambassador Michael McFaul was furious when he heard President Donald Trump celebrate Russian President Vladimir Putin’s expulsion of 755 embassy employees from the country.

    “I want to thank him because we’re trying to cut down our payroll and as far as I’m concerned I’m very thankful that he let go of a large number of people,” Trump told reporters during an impromptu press conference in Bedminster, New Jersey. “There’s no real reason for them to go back.”

    McFaul, who served as the ambassador from 2011-2014 under former President Barack Obama also served as the former Special Assistant to the President at National Security Council. He knows first hand the strategic value of diplomats and staff living and working in Russia on behalf of the United States.

    “Trump just applauded cuts of 755 in Russian embassy,” McFaul said Thursday. “Maybe he should look to trim his own staff? You realize Mr. President that the State Dept organizes US delegations to [the Global Entrepreneurship Summit] — those same people you just said were not needed in Russia.”

    He went on to allege that the comment from Trump proves that the president doesn’t know anything about foreign diplomacy.

      Question, did Trump ask Putin to help him cut his budget by removing 755 from Russian embassy? We know for certain Trump has no clue about diplomates, embassy jobs are a waste of money to him.

    Rift between the president and his national security advisor McMaster.
    http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/08/10/heres-the-memo-that-blew-up-the-nsc/amp/

    The memo at the heart of the latest blowup at the National Security Council paints a dark picture of media, academics, the “deep state,” and other enemies allegedly working to subvert U.S. President Donald Trump, according to a copy of the document obtained by Foreign Policy.

    The seven-page document, which eventually landed on the president’s desk, precipitated a crisis that led to the departure of several high-level NSC officials tied to former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. The author of the memo, Rich Higgins, who was in the strategic planning office at the NSC, was among those recently pushed out.

    The full memo, dated May 2017, is titled “POTUS & Political Warfare.” It provides a sweeping, if at times conspiratorial, view of what it describes as a multi-pronged attack on the Trump White House.
