Why doesn't Trump invade Hong Kong and make it a US territory?
the Chinese navy and airforces are garbage compared to out own so why don't we just take it? They have been protesting Bejing taking more control of Hong Kong for weeks now and have even shut down the air port! I saw we take for the benefit of America and Hong Kong!

You want the US to become involved in another war!!! Let us assume for the moment that you are posing a serious question. Is the US prepared to take on both China and Russia? You can also toss in N Korea for good measure. While there is resentment of Chinese imperialism in SE Asia there is no great love for the US in this region. People have have seen how the US props up dictatorships throughout the world. Then you have other allies like India. The US would be alone if Hong Kong were invaded by US troops. It's interesting that you think an invasion instead of diplomacy would solve the problem. You need to ask yourself why mainland China has not sent its troops into Hong Kong and why Carrie Lam hasn't asked that they be sent.

You're too young to remember the Korean "War", aren't you? The Chinese can afford to lose ten me to out one and still come out ahead. Besides, we don't need Hong Kong and Hong Kong doesn't need us. There's also the problem of losing any allies that Trump hasn't already driven off. We ARE supposed to be civilized, aren't we?

The people of Hong Kong don't want us. If they wanted a western power in charge of them, it would be the British.
Believe me, they don't think much of us or little Donnie.
