Kids these days don't even know how to rig an election. What are they even teaching in schools.

No country takes action based on moral grounds. They only take action for their self interest. This is international relations 101. Sometimes these align! Sometimes... not so much.

What Taiwan has done is made the "good" outcome (Taiwan remains free and independent) align with the US's self interest (having computers and a tech based economy).

The US will always exert power over Taiwan, so will China. That's just what great powers do. However, China doesn't need to threaten an invasion to do this. There is no reason China can't relinquish their claim on Taiwan and just build a casual trade relationship with Taiwan.

but we expect to produce "thousands upon thousands" of fancy new drones?

I think Taiwan can absolutely help support the US in producing thousands upon thousands of new drones.

Yes. Defend Taiwan from a Chinese invasion that threatens their sovereignty. One that is continuously threatened by China and one Taiwan actively prepares for.

Imagine using a cat for target practice at work and not getting fired.
