  1. Definitely not a fan, but this was an alpha move. Great Job Nancy !!

  2. Taiwan is a part of China because China has 2 parts due to civil war, Taiwan of China and mainland of China. Currently both 2 parts have their own administrations but UN and almost all countries admit mainland China as the country China. Sooner or later both parts will be united because separation caused by civil war should not last long.

  3. We might owe China a debt of gratitude, didn't know they were interested in doing favors for us

  4. In US there is no difference between republicans ( Neo conservatives ) and democrats ( left liberals ) when it comes to war mongering…..Entire politics thrives on war Industry…..

  5. what a bunch of cowards

  6. don't believe it …China and America war coming soon , China and America both nations of mutual cooperation a covid pandemic for risk people of the global, how will war with both nations? everybody don't cheat that from China and America both nations anything of diplomacy fake appearance actions, it's they each other acting show, don't fraud own country people

  7. She is going bcoz want ww3 so that they avoid mid term election ,or will lose it in long way.. as soon as democrats lose it she will be charged for different crimes starting with insider trading.. it's big rabbit hole by it self.. there will be no election if there is war .. she Is provoking one
    .

  8. I hope she dose stop in the independent country of Taiwan..just to flip off the Winny the poor Chinese CCP government

  9. Don't fool people about congressional leader went to Taiwan in the past. Check the history, they are in different political party. This time, she is from the same political party, democrat!! When someone give you the red line, you go for it. You are taking your own risk!! Actually, hurting the whole world for her decision. If China governor go to Texas and supporting them to be independent. Is that o.k. for U.S.?? Russia gave Nato the red line, no one care! and this time is China. If they both join together, it's going to be big headache for western countries. Please don't use Taiwan as pawn! The world will be more peaceful!

  10. WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL? CHINA PRETENDS TO BE UPSET AND A LITTLE TIT FOR TAT NEAR NOVEMBER ELECTIONS AND PELOSI STAYS IN OFFICE. TELSA AND OTHERS GET THEIR CHIPS AND THE SWAMP MEDIA GOES ON A LOVE FEST FOR THE DEMS. HUSBAND'S HEDGE FUND GETS A BIG BOOST.

  11. You can visit Taiwan ok don't be too scary China ok.

  12. 1.Taiwan is never a country, but a province of China. The current situation of the Taiwan strait was historical consequences of Chinese Civil War. Most countries in the world, including the US, do not recognize Taiwan's independence.

    2.The official name of Taiwan is Republic of China. The relationship between the Republic of China (Chinese Taiwan) and People's Republic of China (Mainland China) is just like the Confederate States of America and the United States of America during the American Civil War. Taiwan being a part of China is also included in Taiwan's so called “Constitution of the Republic of China”.

  13. china you better not! we need her and her family. without pelosi who would commit treason? who would commit insider trading? who would drive drunk with her husband? BACK OFF CHINA!

  14. If Pelosi doesn't go to Taiwan then I say all democrats are cowards!
    You better go Nancy, the world is watching ma'am.
    If you don't go ma'am then that will embolden China to attack Taiwan. Nancy you need to go and represent America the way we need. China is always full of false threats. Do your thing ma'am, I may be a republican and we can fight amongst ourselves but no outside nation better even think about touching my American brothers and sisters!!
    We will unite together and party's will not matter in my book.
    You fn Chinese dare to threaten Pelosi then China better be prepared to burn with scorched lands because I'll be the first to re enlist!! 🇺🇸 United together!

  15. Ms Pelosi we will pray for you GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS SHOW THE WORLD THAT USA 🇺🇸 IS THE NUMBER # 1

  16. China has no business telling Pelosi who she can and cant visit

  17. It's funny that all wish her to go from both sides. It's easier to ride on the tiger than to dismount it.
    Carry on, Nancy.😂

  18. Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, Taiwanese will pay a heavy price for the following year, Biden promised Ukraine to join NATO, Ukraine took heavy casualties, many city in total destruction, now it is Taiwan people to pay the price for our great speaker Pelosi to have a fun trip, Taiwan is paying with their blood for Nancy Pelosi, not fair.

  19. Stop Pelosi. We have already a war in Ukraine not one more. Go home Pelosi

  20. They should send someone different then Nancy. What a joke.

  21. She absolutely must go to Taiwan!

  22. What she is doing right now is PUTTING THE PEOPLE IN TAIWAN AT STAKE. It’s just like US did the same actions in Ukrainian. She’s trying to avoiding the questioning about her INSIDE-Trade scandal by flying away from US.

  23. Why is Nancy getting involved in China politics inciting a global war . while the United States has record gas prices and 30 trillion deficits . Where is the main stream media concern of United States sleep walking into a nuclear war with China and Russia? Is Pelosi compromised by Klaus Schwab great reset agenda ?

  24. THE WAY I SEE IT…
    Let's just speculate for a moment…
    In my opinion – She is pushing for conflict…
    But it would be a blessing for America, the moment that a Chinese rocket strikes the plane carrying Pelosi.
    Since she's asking for it – Let her have it.!!!
    The rest would be unfortunate yet justified collateral damage, and on her account.

  25. If Pelosi chickens out in visiting Taiwan, it will show that the US is no longer the great super power it once was.

  26. Meanwhile Biden is enjoying his ice cream and pie… A very convenient time to get covid again.

  27. She can't even stand and walk properly

  28. China is about to do America a big favor.

  29. Pelosi, what's your carbon footprint? How many homes do you have?

  30. Taiwan is an independent country. Why don't these Chinese hypocrite go back to the wall and enjoy their own fantasy?

  31. Well this might open up a seat for us here in CA to be filled with a republican. Good news!

  32. The US 🇺🇲 can establish a No Fly Zone surround Taiwan Strait and on the route that Ms.Pelosi travels.
    – What can China🇨🇳 do? Crying?

  33. China must stop violating Taiwan's🇹🇼 sovereignty in the air and Taiwan Strait, or interfering into Taiwan's internal affairs,
    – or face severe punishment from the Taiwan Defense Force.

  34. My condolences to the 1.4 billion Chinese🇨🇳 who lost their freedom and dignity under a repressive regime,
    and now become brainwashed victims of the expansionist ruler, with a lie that the sovereign country Taiwan was a "province" of China.

  35. She right now is in over her head. Inside trader DUI husband COVID money HER BODY double will die. And she will be on Corona Beach a new person

  36. Why is Pelosi behaving like human traffickers? Why cant she behave like a normal persons instead acting like drug dealers setting up multiple decoys and smoke screens to go to Taiwan?
