I'm still up for unofficial relations with the ROC though.

They obviously don't give a fuck what the US thinks considering they've been helping the North Korean regime for decades; Maybe it's time we showed them that they can't fuck us over and expect us to appease them.

Keeping protecting Taiwan is just freezing in time a civil war that should be finished long ago.
Once Japan capitulated, Taiwan who was under its control since 1895, should have been given back to ROC and the Allies should not have put troops there, nor signed any protection pact. The civil war would have ended with one of the 2 sides losing and China finally reunited.

Beijing should know that attacking will have grave consequences with the US having a much larger nuclear arsenal.

The US should do the same with Korea, the ROK is the true government of all Korea.

I would have held your position years ago maybe, but it isn't like that. The ROC should be allowed to control Taiwan unimpeded without possible threat of an invasion by the blowhards of the PRC, but both China's need to back off on claiming one another.

The actual best solution would be to place Jin Yuzhang on the throne where he belongs.

Yes let us invade an island in which we give a considerable sum of weapons, and ammunition to. What could possibly go wrong?

A lot could go wrong, but the PRC is sure to genocide the people on that Island once the Chinese have adequate naval power. They kill and imprison objectors to the PRC all the time.
