This is where Steve Bannon came from prior to the general election DJT campaign 2015/16. He then became the president's main advisor and contributed to the "America First" slogan/ideology started and stated at the 2017 Presidential inauguration.
Also promoted by this campaign and administration(which I have mentioned before) is the deconstruction of the administrative state.
Andrew Breitbart RIP (d.2012) was a very smart conservative journalist. Steve Bannon is another blowhard (perhaps that is why he got along with President Trump).
Andrew Brietbart was instrumental in changing political reporting and if anything deconstructed (revealed) some of the political team media.
If you would like a real "treat" from society, find a "hot topic" by maximum total comment count on Breitbart. Entertain yourself with the provided comments on said "hot topic". Then, to understand what is going on in society, SAFELY ASSume that this is a close representation 25% of all Trump supporters which is mathematically 10% of society(42% approval ratings..etc) given the statistically dependable results of a bell curve. This means that 10% of society goes batsh*t crazy and 32% don't say anything when they know it's wrong because of ideology, religion, whatever...freedom... 'Murica. This all said and the illogical, selfish are still in control. Breitbart was/still is in the White House.
I ASSume 'murica is pejorative about America , or at least some Americans.
Keep yourself informed and point out atrocities when you find them to watch those on the right squirm as they protect their single "issue" and let the idiocy continue. If White supremacists and Nazi supporters approve and support this president and his policies, it should raise HUGE red flags for anyone who supports this current administration and says these appalling ideologies are wrong.
could say the same thing about excesses from the left...
Back to the thread topic... 73% of US blames China for COVID. From what I have read, I believe this was not lab/human originated.
Straw man? It does not appear to be man/lab made, but current theory is that it was brought into a Wuhan lab for study (from bats) and accidentally released, or infected a lab worker, who then spread it locally. The research labs in Wuhan have long been criticized for unsafe practices.
As far as I can tell, China did NOT maliciously force this virus on the world. If they did, as the right is pushing, then our self-proclaimed "war-time" president lost that war(BIGLY). I do not believe this scenario to be true.
I don't know anybody who does, of course the conspiracy theorists on both sides are working overtime.
OTOH I do not discount the possibility that the Communist party leadership recognized the potential to gain advantage from how they handled this accident. There is a pattern of behavior that clearly exposed the west to more economic disruption, while China profited. In a zero sum game world view this is logical, while absolutely horrendous.
I do believe they under reported the contagious nature of the virus to get a handle on PPE before worldwide shortages occurred. Trump administration sent them 18 TONS of PPE in February when sh*thead was claiming "democratic hoax".
Your source is a tweet from Maxine Waters?
The hoax claim has been explained before... Trump accused the democrats of using it as their latest hoax to attack him, not that the virus was a hoax.
In hindsight everybody if a F'n genius. Yes, we could have used that PPE, but China clearly needed it at the time and we were working to improve relations with China. The world including me, underestimated the severity of this virus. The WHO did not declare it a pandemic until March, I recall pointing that out here, when I still trusted the WHO as not carrying water for China. In hindsight I should not have trusted the WHO. That is how hindsight works.
He claims he's got a very good brain, but he was DUPED to the Nth degree while ignoring his top level scientific advisors. He would have done rhe same thing if he was smart enough, but he's NOT... that's why no one should blame China. Americans want to believe that this unfortunate situation was someone else's fault, but just like getting a "F" on a paper, it's always because you didn't do what you should have, early enough. Countries who have done best looked inwardly and cooperated as a whole. We have done neither of those things.
I guess we aren't all that smart.
FIGHT AGAINST FIGHTING CHINA.
Usually after the first couple punches, you realize you are in a fight... If you want to turn the other cheek in a fist fight be my guest. I trust the Chinese communists even less than I trust the US legislators and politicians (swamp dwellers). President Trump is not a turn the other cheek kind of guy.
It is odd who the anti-Trumpers are reflexively so willing to embrace, out of hatred against President Trump, or is it hatred against 'murica?
