Comment: Trump quotes: 
 - "I know more than the generals".
 -  "I'm smart. I don't need daily briefings. I will replace all the Intelligence Community"                                               
(meaning he doesn't agree with or have faith in their expertise. That is, his Intelligence  Community will      reflect his intelligence [what there is of it]) . 
- "In effect,  with respect to Taiwan, China's 'One China'  policy is now outdated since Taiwan operates as a democracy" (implying that Taiwan  is not part of China). If he persists in trying to make this a fait accompli, it means war for sure. No one pushes China around, -not even the super-businessman  Donald. He has no idea what he is up against in present world politics. More than that, he does not have the mental capacity  or intelligence to comprehend how to run a complicated country like  the U.S.A.  It's not a business in which he can make progress with  bullying and bluster. He's out of his league and milieu.
