She should not go. It’s unnecessary provocation.
When members of the House - R or D - get involved in foreign policy, it’s always a disaster.
She should stay in her lane.

Too late for that. It is a clear sign of weakness&concession to a the last country we want to show
that. She should stay in her lane, but she never has. Regardless, wtf do you think it's provocation for one of our high ranking officials to visit a long time ally? If China gets away with this, it is another step back for us in appeasement.
What a bunch of rank amateurs this admin are.

Agree, but too late for that now. If she backs down, she does more damage.
The order of options, best to worst:
1) She says nothing about going and does not go.
2) She says she is going to go, and she goes.
3) She says she is going to go, and then she backs down to Chinese threats and does not go.Right now, the best outcome is option 2. She already passed up on option 1.

It is bad timing, especially given that China has not armed Russia re Ukraine.
Right now, keeping China out of the Russia — Ukraine conflict, far surpasses any optics of “backing down” to China re this visit.
Also, no sense putting Taiwan at risk over a visit by the Speaker.

Opinion 2.1: she has a very low key visit. A few hours stay, no media allowed, no photo allowed, no
Joint statement, and only meet her counterpart, president of Legislative Yuan (Taiwan congress). This way, Pelosi shows China she respects China and makes concession. But she still doesn't lose her principle - she is determined to go to Taiwan.
Pelosi's trip is for her own legacy. This is the reason why I believed she would likely go, and nobody can stop her. Regardless of D losing or keeping the house on November, she won't be the majority leader.

Latter part is certainly true. She knows it’s the end of her run and & wants to go out with a bang.

Supposedly Biden sent Sullivan over to ask her not to go.
And she refused to back down. This really doesn’t make much sense at all.

When she starts a conflict with China, will the Ukrainian or Taiwanese flag come first in Jim's bio?
What other flags will Jim add to his bio by the end of the Vegetable's reign?

A rainbow flag should cover all his bases. After all, all nations are subsumed by that flag, right?

Have the initials MP been added to that flag yet?
Just checking for a couple of board posters
