Quelle surprise! As it turns out President Trump was 110% correct about calling COVID-19 the Chinese Virus.
According to the Daily Mail today, which is once again doing the work American journalists refuse to do:
Mr Pottinger said that the latest intelligence points to the virus leaking from the top-secret Wuhan Institute of Virology, 11 miles from the market, saying: 'There is a growing body of evidence that the lab is likely the most credible source of the virus.'
Top-secret Wuhan Institute of Virology in China
So, it escaped from a super-secret lab where it was being tinkered with as opposed to being a natural mutation that spread unfortunately but innocently from bats in the Wuhan Wet Market. How unbelievable! Who could have imagined such a thing?
As China was hawking the “wet market scenario” journalists back in America, where “truth” is now a quaint, almost anachronistic concept, were busy promoting Beijing's version while simultaneously spinning the myth that our President was racist for calling a Chinese spade a spade. Yeah, they really think we’re that stupid.
Now that the president has joined in, referring to the virus this week as the “Chinese Virus” and repeatedly defending the label, the situation for Asian Americans is likely about to go from bad to worse, several experts told The Post.
(In) the latest instance of Trump deliberately calling the novel virus a name that has been frowned upon by critics, who say its usage could lead to increased discrimination and racism toward Asian Americans
“It’s racist and it creates xenophobia,” Harvey Dong, a lecturer in Asian American and Asian diaspora studies with the University of California at Berkeley, told The Post. “It’s a very dangerous situation.”
“[Trump is] essentially throwing his American citizens or residents of Chinese and Asian descent ‘under the bus’ by ignoring the consequences of the language he uses,” said Cheah, a psychology professor at the University of Maryland Baltimore County. “He’s fueling these anti-Chinese sentiments among Americans … not caring that the people who will truly suffer the most are Chinese Americans and other Asian Americans, his citizens whom he’s supposed to protect.” WaPo 3-20-20
And apparently over 80 million Americans - give or take a few million – really are that stupid.
Dim sum? Yeah, all day, everyday. God help us.

Obama’s admin okayed Fauci sending $3.7M NIH tax dollars to Wuhan Lab, said to be the source of Covid 19.
The BIGGER question is how much China sent back to obamba:
<><> donations to his tax-free foundation,
<><> donations to his final resting place (presidential library) in Chicago.....
<><> hefty fee for speaking gigs
<><> and so on and so forth.
===================================
REFERENCE---The Obama Foundation held its inaugural summit on October 31, 2017, in Chicago.
According to Obama, he intends for his foundation to be central to many of his post-presidential activities, which he sees as having the potential to be more consequential than his time in the White House.
On September 25, 2018, an IRS report revealed that the Foundation no longer identified any possible mega-donors. In 2018, contributions and in-kind gifts totaled $164.8 million, according to its filed annual report in June 2019— a drop of $67.8 million from the record $232.6 million in 2017.
The President of the Obama Foundation is Adewale Adeyemo, a Nigerian Economist ----one of Obama's former senior economic advisers-----and Deputy US National Security Adviser for International Economic Affairs.

The French built the plant, with the plan that it would be run jointly, 50-50, with China and research SARS and other annoying diseases in Asia. China had other plans and kicked the French out once the plant was completed and operationa, about 3 years ago. 50 years ago, the French built the Iraq nuclear reactor that Israel had to destroy in 1981.
I’d hate to say there’s a pattern here, but if the French behaved, even as good as the Soviets/Russians, the world would be a FAR BETTER PLACE.
I wish they have given obama mega doses of the virus. That pos has caused the USA more problems than anyone in history.
<><> donations to his final resting place (presidential library) in Chicago....
I would chip in some cash if they could get him to hurry up and get there. He’s an enemy to this nation.
Sure, there are a few ignorant folks who will blame the Chinese virus on a local person of Chinese descent.
I think the majority of us can figure out a local Chinaman, unless he is a biologist from Wuhan, has zero chance of having anything to do with the virus.
I like Dim Sum.
Whenever I can get it, I will.
We knew from the beginning, this was probably a "whoops" in the Wuhan lab.
First, the scientist who was a whistleblower on it was killed or jailed, I forget which.
Then the Chinese bureaucrats do what bureaucrats everywhere do, covered it up and hoped it would go away.
It didn't.

It has definitely been used to target certain people — of a certain political party, but not his political party.
I agree. For me, the primary uncertainty was whether it escaped from the Level 4 lab 11 miles from the wet market, or the less secure Level 2 lab located only a few hundred yards from the wet market.
