Basic problem is that Xi has made a threat. If Piglosi does indeed go to Taiwan, he is, in his mind he is obligated to do something drastic based on his threats. If he does nothing, or basically does diplomatic thing, he will lose face to his cohorts and the Chinese people. Losing face is, to an Asian, the worst thing that could happen. He would not be elected to his third term nor be elecbted as chairman of the CCP.
On the other hand, if Biden takes this phony threat seriously and orders Pelosi not to go, then Biden and America look weak and coward , which is prolly The Biden Administrations plan from the get g0.
Remember he is called. China Joe reason
