And now you want those same leaders to "get even" by demanding money or debt relief from China?

What world are you folks living in?

LMAO

You're now like your statist peers on Team Blue with their Russia obsession.

Two peas in a pod.
Apparently the only one who bought the goods while hospitals were buying built overnight in China to deal with it that it was no big deal and under control wasn't Trump.

That said, China is no friend of ours and this best be a wake up call...its time to at least bring the manufacture of products that we truly need back to the US. Electronics like TVs, IPADs, and the like can still be made there to keep prices low...but medical equipment, and antibiotics, and vaccines, and any food should not be coming from there. That needs to be produced within our borders.
We need more domestic Chip manufacturing too imo. It's very high tech and China hasn't been able to establish a food hold in the non basic chips, but most of the FAB shops are all in the Asian Pacific (Taiwan, South Korea, Japan).

Pretty sure the bag of Doritos I ate early this week was made right here in the US of A. They might not be high tech or nothing, but they darn well taste good.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

The following is only my opinion:
America was involved in war over seas. Spain was first to report hence the Spanish flu. American soldiers brought it back to the Unites States when returning home. Patient Zero was at a military camp. These are facts. Where it originated still has missing pieces to the puzzle.

China on the other hand had a dozen epidemics birthed from their nation within the
last 100 years and half a dozen within our life times. China accountability for Covid 19 strain is 100%.

The following is only my opinion:
China media admitted the virus came from a meat market and went as far as claiming
no sign of human to human infection existed.............hmmmmmm?


I believe:
China 100% Accountability and pending global Lawsuit for destroying the World Economy whether intentionally or inadvertently.

Let them make t-shirts, sneakers, and Mr Coffee.....but cut them completely off from things we need
Let's be careful about how we do it though, because they make a lot of the Apple stuff, and I might need a new battery, or charger some day.

You haven't got a very good grip on the timeline of events or the criminality of the Chinese actions. Why is that? The information is freely available.

Of course the world will treat them as a pariah.

In 1918, the words "Billions" & "Trillions" hadn't been invented by our politicians yet, so it would only cost us millions.
