Clinton redirected the carrier group in accordance with agreements already existing in Taiwan. He did it grudgingly and to 'keep the peace' as it were.
Two (or three) years later, he undercut himself by allowing technology vital to silencing submarines to be sold to China.
It was President Clinton who sent two aircraft carrier groups to the Taiwan Strait during the Third Taiwan Strait Crisis.
Aren't you a History major?
The Chicoms paid all that money to the Clintons and the McConnells, they probably want the gravy train to keep a'coming.

This is an interesting game their playing. I've read an article in the Los Angeles Times that China is ascendancy is increasing faster due to Trump's isolationist policies. And yet, according to the above, the CPC is trying to divide Trump's base.
Does the CPC want Trump around or not? The CPC appears to be fearful of Trump's tariffs. At the same time, they appear to be very confident of ruling the Pacific.
A lot to consider here; what's the CPC's game? I'm thinking it is to create chaos in the USA, something that Putin has been very successful at doing.
