Last time I looked, Taiwan considered mainland China as part of Taiwan. China simply a (larger) renegade part of the country. More silly political rhetoric. They are separate countries and will remain so until both countries agree otherwise - from one who never had much tolerance for compromises that don't solve problems.

China does know one fact that has been expressed by every previous president. If China attacks Taiwan, they will find themselves in direct conflict with the US. That has been stated specifically - sometimes by openly, publically, and agressively parading US aircraft carrier task forces in the Formosa Straits.
