Lindsey Graham Calls On China To Stop Eating Bats
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | April 03, 2020

Posted on 04/04/2020 1:34:52 AM PDT by Helicondelta

Sen. Lindsey Graham demanded the Chinese government close down its wet markets to stem the spread of diseases that he said likely originate in the stalls’ unusual game and produce.

The South Carolina Republican appeared on Fox News on Friday and said he is sending a letter with Democratic Sens. Cory Booker of New Jersey and Chris Coons of Delaware to the World Health Organization and the Chinese government demanding the closure of wet markets. The novel coronavirus is suspected to have originated in a wet market in Wuhan, China.

"How many times do we have to go through this before we change our behavior? It’s just not in China. It’s in southeast Asia. It’s in Africa," Graham said. "We have wet markets where wild, exotic animals are being slaughtered and consumed on the same premises as chicken and pork, and it gets into the stream of the animals and eventually the human beings."

"Some guy in China started all this, and it most likely came from a wet market," Graham continued, referring to the coronavirus pandemic.

Chinese meat markets have reportedly opened back up for business

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m mostly prone to ‘mute’ the TV when Graham comes on to dump his latest “I’m all angry and upset” piece. It’s probably time that he moves on.

Linda always charges in if there is nothing ghee can do. But on things he could help on, he is silent. The wall, exposing the coup, supporting Trump etc. He did nothing.

And I will never forgive 2 years of him threatening impeachment if Mueller was fired.

Anyone who still believes that this debacle started because of a bad bowl of bat soup is a fool.

As the folks just above pointed out, it is an engineered bioweapon.

Yeah other countries eat more bat but don’t start global pandemics. I agree this is likely bioweapon that was accidentally leaked.

Like it may have had bat *origins* but was eventually tampered with in a lab. My theory.

Probably about as likely as telling American hunters to stop eating deer.

Inform yourself.

14 of the 40 indiciduals who were the first patients of COVID 19 in Red China were from outside the Wet Market in Wuhan. They brought the virus INTO the wet market. There was no zoomprphic transmission.The zoomorphic meme is a ploy to mask the truth, because Graham and others do not really want a cold war with China.

The Senator to listen to is Tom Cotton:
