China's Behavior Now Shows the Danger of Mark Milley's Actions

We reported on the troubling story of Gen. Mark Milley’s contacts with the Chinese, as well as intervening in the chain of command as to military/nuclear operations, something he doesn’t have any right to do. While Milley’s spokesperson tried to spin the contacts with the Chinese as normal, the spokesperson didn’t deny the report that Milley had told the Chinese that he would warn them first if we were going to attack. Which tells you right there everything you need to know about the truth of the allegation. The former acting Secretary of Defense, Christopher Miller, said he never authorized such contacts with the Chinese.
Now, not only is this incredibly improper, as we’ve said, with some even calling it bordering on treason, there’s another very harmful consequence of that.
The story behind all this was China was worried about a possible U.S. attack. This, of course, was just nonsense. As retired Army Colonel Douglas McGregor said: “Trump was not someone who was going to launch a nuclear strike out of the blue against anyone.” But Trump was tough on China; kept them guessing and back on their heels. He was tough, showing strength, so they knew that they couldn’t take chances or they would hear from him. He held them in check.
