Donald Trump said he had separately warned both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping that he would bomb their respective capitals if either of them invaded their neighbors, newly released audio broadcast by CNN shows.

The U.S. president was recorded speaking at a private fundraiser in 2024 about his conversations with Putin and Xi.

"With Putin I said, 'If you go into Ukraine, I'm gonna bomb the s*** out of Moscow,'" Trump is heard saying, recounting his version of their conversation. He also said with Xi he also threatened to "bomb the s*** out of Beijing" if it invaded Taiwan, the self-governing island that China claims as its own.

No it doesn't. Taiwan is part of China, the PRC rules China.

If Trump and most Republicans lost the next elections, and this led to a violent split between Democrats and Republicans rather than Trump and the Republicans ceding power, with the Democrats ultimately pushing back the Trumpist insurrection until they fled to Long Island, where they slaughtered most people living there then claimed to rule the entire US from the island.

Trumps Republicans would not still have claim to the entire US just because he ruled for 8 years (and Republicans far longer), and wouldn't rightfully have claim to Long Island itself. It would be an occupation of American land by a far right nationalist faction, nothing more.

You only disagree with regards to Taiwan because the west sides with the nationalist occupation in an effort to oppose the communist ruling party of China.
