How did he think that was going to go? Did he think they’d be all “let’s hand over the only thing keeping the us invested in our sovereignty hehehe”

Sure, the US cares so much about Taiwan province's sovereignty. The first thing that comes to my mind when I think about the US is how much they care about other nation's sovereignty.

Notice I didn’t say care. I know they don’t care but they do spend a shit ton of money posturing, running military drills, and threatening China over them.
