I haven't got the slightest clue.  On the one hand, I would like to tell the ChiCom's to GFY.  They aren't going to dictate when and where our politicians can travel to another country.....even worthless politicians like Pelosi.  On the other hand, I see absolutely zero benefit to her visiting Taiwan and making such a big deal out of it.  It's almost like they're trying to provoke the ChiCom's into a response of some sort.  So absent some strategic reason to visit Taiwan it seems to me the risks far, far outweigh any benefits to the country.  Now maybe she's going there to get some inside info that she can share stock tips with her husband so he can once again outperform every other investor in America.....but other than that it is a mystery.  Not that they need the money but maybe he's worried about going to jail for the DWI...why he would be worried about that is a mystery to me.

My sense is she will not go and will claim it was for a reason other than the obvious......ChiCom threats.
