I am darkly curious as to how the Epoch media ecosystem would react were Trump to start turning on Taiwan. I suspect they'd fall in line because the cost of breaking from Trumpism is so high, though Chinese-language readership would probably suffer.
Rory, I appreciate your motivation in writing this, but please dial back on the apocalyptic language. Can Taiwan “survive”? Can it continue to “exist”? Come on.
Interesting analysis. It's hard to imagine how worrying all this must be for ordinary Taiwanese. Let's hope for the best.

Feedback taken! A bit clickbaity this time.
Anytime in the past two decades this would have been a clickbait question/headline. Not so much now, sadly.
I felt clickbaity writing it! And I probably wouldn't have written it a week ago. The Ukraine Tweet was really bad.
