GOP rep presses Trump to meet with Dalai Lama

 By Mark Hensch | The Hill

ON THE WEB, 8 December 2016

Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) says President-elect Donald Trump should meet with the Dalai Lama, a move that risks increasing tensions with China.

“As you meet with various world leaders in preparation for assuming your role as President, I would like to take the opportunity to suggest that you meet with His Holiness the Dalai Lama,” Sensenbrenner wrote in a letter to Trump dated Tuesday.

“Since his exile from Tibet 57 years ago, the Dalai Lama has been a strong and persistent advocate for a peaceful resolution for the tension between Tibet and China,” added Sensenbrenner, who backed Trump’s White House run.

“Throughout the course of the last half-century, America has had a strong and stable relationship with the people and government of Tibet. I hope you will continue this strong relationship with Tibet, as well as promote peace between Tibet and the People’s Republic of China.”

Sensenbrenner added that a meeting with the Dalai Lama would send Beijing a strong message about US support for Tibet.

“Tibetans have the right to preserve their culture, heritage, language, and religion,” he said. “Over the years, the Tibetan people have undergone a constant struggle to free themselves from the Chinese government and to preserve these basic freedoms.

   When told (he has no phone) of Trumps reproach.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

On Trumps death bed, he will have total Consciousness.

I hope we don't have to wait that long.
