A SOFTBALL QUESTION CAUSES A FUMBLE


Against the Chinese Communist Party

The Trump Administration held a firm stance

But the new occupant has a wavering view

And with the genocidal CCP wants to dance

One can understand pre-election posturing

But despite public hyperbolic political criticisms

The policies are usually kept in place

Called intellectual honesty versus ideological automatism

But then what was good was stopped by a fumble

A softball question answered in confusion

China’s Uyghur genocide was attributed to different culture norms

Giving the totalitarian nation a green light for more intrusion

The occupant undermines his own staff

Sends potentially ambiguous and dangerous signals

To an adventurous and on the move nation

This is not good; a historical miscalculation; the bell jingles

Similar fumbles have led to war; history paints the picture

World War II; North Korean Invasion: Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait

Inconsistent view points on the Chinese Situation

Allow their analysts to reposition; they will not hesitate
