   Now, let's break this down..

  The president, the administration and our elected congress sponsors a spendthrift bill totaling well over a trillion dollars, part of which is to defend Taiwan.
 
    This angers China, so China launches an exercise toward Taiwan...

  So the president and congress sit back and congratulate themselves for being so prescient as to borrow the trillion
 from China, and pay principle along with interest for an indefinite period on into the future.

   Hey Mr president, hey congress..SMOOTH MOVE EXLAX !

I think nasty Nancy has something to do with this.
.

  I think there are a number on both sides of the aisle, who had something to do with this..  For instance;
