I don't know about tearing our economy down. We certainly must bring the manufacturing of meds and critical products back here.
China starts this disease and then threatens to cut us off from the meds we need. Some friend, huh?
Anyway, they need us far more than we need them. We could ramp our production up quite quickly when push comes to shove. We've done it before.
The us has never consider china a friend in any shape or form. China has only recently woken up to that fact. Good for china. The manufacturing of various ingredients in China was a decision made by big us pharma so that they can increase their profit margin. If you have a problem with that, take it up with them. But China can certainly interdict any manufactured products that its companies make during times of distress so yeah, too bad.
And yeah, the corona virus strain started in the US. There are five mutations for this covid strain....A, B. C, D, E. And A being the oldest form and so on. China’s virus is a C, but all five forms are found in the US. So please explain how china can be the place of origin? don’t worry. Chinese scientists are hard at work solving this mystery and we shall know soon enough.
When someone has been negligent and causes damage, injury, or death to another they can be sued for damages.
I would like to see President Trump take a strong stand against China for being negligent and causing injury and death to our citizens, in addition to great financial damages - and offset our debt with China to pay for these damages!
I agree. I am not against China and I like Chinese food but it is crazy when a group of irresponsible people in Wuhan, China disturbs the life of the whole planet. The USA, South Korea, Italy, the entire European Union, airlines, cruise ship companies, etc. should bring the case to court in The Hague, the Netherlands or another court. Losses are millions and trillions or dollars. Next time there will be an epidemic in China, they will not hide the epidemic and end it in one week. If the Chinese government doesn't pay, there is no more business, period.
When you said load of tripe, I didn't realize you meant coming in your rant. Why don't you give me some specifics of how Trump refused to work with the people that were claiming he stole the election with the help of the Russians? Or then switched it to Ukraine. Then vilified his attempts to negotiate with North Korea. Or then said he needed impeached for abuse of power. Or then claimed he had Hunter Biden investigated just to beat old Joe in an election. Or on and on and on.
Trump should have refused to work with them, but he didn't. Even when they blocked his wall, his travel and immigration policies and everything else the man tried to do. Things at least half of America wanted, although that doesn't matter to the left. They have to have it all their way.
Trump has failed at nothing in the virus catastrophe. In fact he has remained calm despite the constant media cries of impending doom. There have been about 41 deaths in the USA to date. Tragic, but not good enough for rags like the NYT who publish crap like an article estimating 200,000 will die. No wonder Trump doesn't trust the media. Do you think Trump should be acting like 200,000 are going to die? Do you really want a president that pushes that kind of fear and panic?
He hasn't stumbled or bumbled at anything and is working hard to keep America safe. Only bitter haters like you would pull against the President at a time like this. I wouldn't care if Hillary herself stepped forward with a cure. I would welcome her and her contribution. Sadly democrats don't share the same view when it comes to Trump.

No, more and more evidence are surfacing that this strain of. Corona virus originated in the US and was passed onto wuhan.
China owns approximately $1 trillion dollars of US debt. Sure. Sue them so they can call on all our debt and start a trade war that would literally sink the US economy. You created this thread on something made in China. Apple fan boys would go insane!
Though he'd probably settle with (swindle us) China for a few billion and vanish.

They'd cut off all of our meds, just as they are threatening to do now. They own more than some debt.

I am pretty sure only the first line you quoted of that was me. But, in any event the virus outbreak did not start in the US.

Yes correct. The first outbreak was in China only because the Chinese identified this as a strain of flu they’ve never seen before. They then focused on it and boom you have an outbreak. The Chinese could just as easily Id this a severe flu and ended with that. In any case now the Japanese are also saying the same thing and Japan is an American ally.
China's foreign ministry claims the virus was introduced to China by the US military. Anyway, we don't need to go fighting with China. We will be needing them for all the medical equipment and medicine required to deal with this virus. We don't produce much of our own anymore. Who knows? We may end up having to ask China for medical personnel to help with this before it is over since we are not addressing the problem and it is quickly blowing up beyond our ability to handle it.
All the rational thinking point to a US origin. The US team that came to China for the World Military Games which occurred in Wuhan in October numbered more than 340. But unlike previous US performance, this time, these athletes didn’t win one single gold medal. In fact their performance was so bad it was stunning and noted in Chinese papers. Several of the athletes were also sick with what the Chinese called “non native” unknown infection and were treated by the hospital in wuhan. Once these athletes left, the outbreak occurred in November.
Interesting that these US soldier-athletes were staying in a hotel adjacent to the seafood market that the outbreak supposedly occurred.
Note.....how can a disease spread so far and wide across American society by March when it only began in December/January? Were there so many tourists from China that they spread the disease to Miami mayor, nba players, all sorts of personalities from Tom hank to all sort of folks around the world? It’s not possible unless the disease is going around long before the chinese outbreak.
Of course if you are china-haters on Fox News this is not a narrative you want because they sow hate and they see china as allied with Biden and so they hate china. But they love Russia because Russia helps their orange fan boy get elected.
In just the last few days there have been more calls for to hold China responsible for the COVID-19 outbreak as reports increasingly show that the virus escaped from a Wuhan laboratory and not from a wet market.
These reports further prove that China did initially know of the dangers and did not take critical measures to prevent the Pandemic as it allowed its citizens to continue travelling all over the World. Then they lied about the numbers which led to delayed reactions in other countries.
President Trump should offset the costs of COVID-19 from our $1Trillion+ debt to China, and expropriate all Chinese-owned real estate, bank accounts, and any other property in the US through Eminent Domain to pay for the remaining $Trillions!
He should also provide tax incentives to all US companies to return manufacturing to our mainland while also increasing tariff pressures to make US-produced goods more competitive with the cheap Chinese crap.
So China - 操你!!!
