Regarding China, Trump has been right every step of the way
american thinker ^ | 4/22/2020 | Andrea Widburg

Since Wuhan virus became a “thing” in America, the media have abandoned any pretense that they are honest news brokers. At CNN, they’ve made themselves into news. During the press conferences, reporters don’t ask Trump questions aimed at eliciting information for the American people. Instead, they ask only questions they hope will harm him. And because Trump triumphs, they want to censor the press conferences.

The media have therefore turned most of the current narrative into a battle between pro- and anti-Trump people on the question of whether Trump responded in a timely and appropriate fashion as news about the Wuhan virus unfolded. Lost in all of this is the fact that Trump warned America a long time ago that China is a dangerous actor.

K. Walker has stepped into this vacuum with a list detailing the seven things that Donald Trump has gotten right about the Chinese. Here’s just some of Walker’s first item in the post, which is the fact that Trump has long known and stated that “China is a threat.”

When Donald J. Trump began his campaign, one of the things that ticked off the leftist globalists the most was that he was very critical of the American relationship with the Chinese Communist Party. He was called xenophobic and a conspiracy theorist for saying that China was taking advantage of the trade relationship.

It turns out — he was right.

China is a threat because the Chinese Communist government has ambitions to be THE global superpower rather than just a global superpower. They have a massive standing army. But that’s not all — they have sent spies to steal tech from Western nations, they’ve used tech to spy and track people around the world, they are currency manipulators, they own our debt, and they use their

I enjoy the press conferences.

Seriously can’t understand why CNN, NBC, and many other reporters keep volunteering to be the punching bags.

The best thing POTUS DJT has done is expose the media and the left for who they are. Maybe enough people will wake up to what’s been going on for the last 50 years.

The Communist Red Chinese. My dad killed Communists in Vietnam, and his buddies killed Chinese Communists in Korea.

Chinese may be winning. They are getting away with unleashing bio-weapons on the world.

Be a shame if Trump said that China could forget about the debt they hold on us.

Was I imagining things, or did a reporter at today’s news conference actually ask if we could inject bleach or alcohol into people to combat COVID?

Is you read his older books from even more than a decade ago, he states exactly the same warning about China. He has understood the danger they are to the United States and sounded the alarm for at least decades and in a consistent way with all the correct assessments on not only what the problem has been and how it has been allowed to grow by various presidential administrations, but how to stop their having tremendous leverage over the U.S. Trump is clear=thinking. He was not running for president then. He’s just got common sense and loves his country. His exasperation over the fact that no president was addressing this major problem was not new with his runningn for president. Far from it.

If you read his older books from 10, 15, 20 years ago, he expounds upon the same warning about China, spelling out the huge problem. He has long understood, as have many with a modicum of common sense, the danger Communist China is to the United States. Donald Trump sounded the alarm in a consistent way with all the correct assessments on not only what the problem has been and how it has been allowed to mushroom and get encouraged by various presidential administrations, but also how to stop the Communist Chinese having tremendous leverage over the U.S. economy. Trump is clear=thinking. He was not running for president then. He’s just got common sense and loves his country. His exasperation over the fact that no president was addressing this major problem was not something new when decided to run for president. Far from it. This has been his clear understanding as a patriotic American, a businessman, and a negotiator.
