John Kirby, the war communication coordinator of the National Security Council of the White House, quoted a phrase similar to "boiled frog in warm water" to describe the PLA's military exercise around Taiwan Island.
He said, "they're boiling frogs, right? They are raising the temperature to a higher level".

China originally did not want to raise the water temperature, but Pelosi paid a visit to Taiwan in disregard of the warning. That is to say, the United States first pressed the warming button, and China can only continue to raise the temperature. After that, both sides continue to raise the water temperature. Who cares what the frogs think?
