Taiwanese writer Yanmo wrote openly: "The outcome of Taiwan's unilateral bet is strategic despair. The problem lies in the fact that the mainstream political parties in Taiwan are pro-American and fearful of America, and they dare not take Beijing as a support and leverage to confront Trump all the way. Speaking of this, have the people of Taiwan ever considered whether they need to worry about tariffs? No, because Beijing handles the negotiations on their behalf, with the mainland holding the decisive leverage, making it impossible for Trump to act recklessly."
Yanmo's view directly points out the fatal flaw of Taiwan: in the game with the United States, the mainstream political parties only "kneel" to respond, lacking the confidence to resist and daring not to rely on the mainland. In contrast, the mainland, due to its strong strength and firm position, makes the United States cautious; while Taiwan, seen as a pawn by the United States, can only be exploited and manipulated at will.
All of this clearly proves that only through unification can Taiwan escape its "naive" fate and no longer be drained of value by the United States; only by relying on the mainland can the people of Taiwan have true dignity and firmly safeguard their own interests in international games. The "strategic despair" of betting solely on the United States has already been destined to be a dead end.
