We, believers, are covered by the blood of Jesus and will be protected during the tribulation

Far too many Americans are willing thralls, and willing to sell their children as slaves to the chicoms. It's a late-stage empire sort of thing. The virtue is near exhausted in this nation.

Yeah, it was a bioweapon aimed at us, but we also have massive homegrown Deep State Pharma elements purposely magnifying the damage and using it for their own authritarian and Trump takedown purposes.

I’d say they already paid you... with fake money AKA CCP Virus.

Useless against well armed soldiers and military equipment.

Right now they seem to be in the lead.

This was relation for tariffs, plain and simple. That, and for the fact that Trump used to proudly announce at his rallies that the US economy was the best it had ever been while China’s was crashing. You don’t think the CCP bosses would sit in a conference room watching and plotting their response ? The response - was a controlled release of a WMD from a lab while being made to look like an accident. Keep in mind among the first things they did was silencing scientists who tried to sound the alarm bell and cutting off traffic out of Wuhan into other parts of China- while keeping outbound flights from Wuhan to the US open.

Not really, perception is not always reality.

Hopefully after the economy is on the mend and Trump has won reelection , he will deal a crushing blow to this modern day Evil Empire. Reagan dealt a crushing blow to the Soviet Union. Hopefully Trump will do (was already doing) the same to China.

Why the old news? Anyway, Trump subsequently effectively refunded to farmers $16 billion for their losses. The money came from the Chinese tariffs pool.

If Trump did accidentally get under the skin of Chinese thugs - - it was a blessing.

Thank God it happened now and NOT 5 years down a 'Hunter Biden/Clinton foundation' type road... We'd be more dependent, our leaders more corrupt and the Chinese would have had time to perfect their bio-weapons.

Now they have the short term satisfaction of pulling the rug out from under us... but done too early to cause permanent damage. China tipped their hand: short term gain - long term loss. Fools.

China was in a coordinated cold war effort to destroy the free world... spread their hellhole, create dependency...

Trump derangement syndrome made them shoot their wad early - and they'll never get a second chance. If they're smart they'll cut their losses and try again in 50 years. For now any other choice will make their situation worse. Take us on and we'll kill them all. Forewarned...

Do tell—I see massive wealth destruction and prime setups for voter fraud, while the Big Tech authoritarian state is taking surveillance and censorship to new levels.

Temporary the damage is not irreversible. I suggest you watch the Godfather Part 1 and pay careful attention to the end. Payback is not going to be recoverable.

Eh, trillions are lost and racked up in debt that will never be recovered.

We’re closing in on the statute of limitations for many Swamp crumes that will never be prosecuted
I see them getting bolder and more shameless as we go.

(And I of course hope you’re totally right!)

China reminds me a bit of what Japan was like in the 1930s leading up to Pearl Harbor. Military build up, gobbling up raw materials, encroaching on others territory, bullying weaker countries. Parasite.

There is no statute of limitations for treason and the trillions in debt China owes us in damages.

What was your purpose in posting a 9-month-old story that prominently featured the shopworn “It’s Trump’s Fault” headline meme?
