Melissa Francis on Tucker Carlson Tonight Praises Trump on China Policy

I just heard tonight that China is involved with our
anti-biotic production. How stupid is that? (not that Trump did this).
“I just heard tonight that China is involved with our
anti-biotic production.”
More like they OWN our anti-biotic supply...they produce it all.
I agree that Trump has helped...but he needed more time. We didn’t get reliant on China overnight, nor will we wean ourselves overnight...although this body-blow that’s about to hit will definitely speed up the weaning process.
This should be trumpeted everywhere (pardon the pun).
“...More like they OWN our anti-biotic supply...they produce it all...”
I think this experience will change this situation. Greed from the BIG-PHARMA business chain has caused this to rise. Allowing it to continue makes us too vulnerable.
“I agree that Trump has helped...but he needed more time. We didnt get reliant on China overnight, nor will we wean ourselves overnight...although this body-blow thats about to hit will definitely speed up the weaning process.”
Concur. Trump did not weaken us relative to this virus, he strengthened us.

Amen!!
80% of all medicines that we use are sourced from China. Either by direct production or through presursor chemicals.
This ranges from penicillin to aspirin to blood pressure meds. Everything, really.
Rosemary Gibson is an expert who has been warning about our dangerous dependency for several years. She wrote a book on it, China RX. No one paid attention. Now maybe they will, instead of parroting the libertarian bull#### about letting the invisible hand decide absolutely everything.

Not quite true. They do not produce it all. They do however produce 80% of it. This needs to change and it will. This virus scare originating in China whatever the cause (wet market or bio lab) is waking up this country and its manufacturers.
We don’t make ANY antibiotics...
Under Obama lots of our military equipment (and stuff that went into making our equipment) was produced in China.
Thank God Trump started the process of bringing industry back to the United States a few months after becoming President.
“..80% of all medicines that we use are sourced from China...”
Only one reason to be going to China for such a critical product line...CHEAP!!!
Wouldn’t bother me a bit if he US stopped all trade with China. Why keep funding the bad guys?
There are plenty of other countries that can cheaply manufacturer whatever it is that China is making. And I don’t want my pharmaceuticals coming from China. Although generally not a fan of anti-free market, I’d much rather that anything I swallow be made in the USA.
I saw a headline recently that there are around 150 common meds that Americans take that will shortly be scarce because they come from China. I have no idea which ones because I didnt read it since I dont take any meds and it didnt effect me.
An acute shortage in antibiotics could force the medical community to treat patients with holistic methods.

MUST-READ BUMP
This was incredibly stupid - making us beholden to our enemies. Just brilliant...or maybe Obama knew what he was doing.
