Some Republicans Applaud Trump Call With Taiwan

President-elect Donald Trump's telephone call with Taiwan's president on Friday broke decades of U.S. diplomatic policy in the region and brought a quick objection by China, but several Republican members of Congress have applauded Trump's decision to accept the call.


"I would much rather have Donald Trump talking to President Tsai [Ing-wen] than to Cuba's Raul Castro or Iran's Hassan Rouhani," Texas Senator Ted Cruz tweeted Saturday. "This is an improvement."
