Trump: Chinese Government Might Be 'Knowingly Responsible' for Spreading COVID-19
By now, even most liberals should be able to admit that COVID-19 originated in a Wuhan laboratory. It was later learned that the Obama administration sent nearly $4 million to that same lab, back in 2015.
On Sunday, President Trump had a message for the Chinese government – warning of consequences.
From The Daily Wire:
President Donald Trump took a harsher tone towards China during a White House press conference late Saturday, even going to far as to suggest that the Asian powerhouse nation was “knowingly responsible” for spreading coronavirus and noting that there could be “consequences” once the United States completes their investigation of how the virus crossed Chinese borders.
Trump said, “It could have been stopped in China before it started and it wasn’t, and the whole world is suffering because of it.“
He added, “If they were knowingly responsible, certainly. If it was a mistake, a mistake is a mistake. But if they were knowingly responsible, yeah, then there should be consequences.“
Trump did not specify what those “consequences” might be, but the United Kingdom, also stricken by the coronavirus pandemic, has been contemplating economic sanctions against China for weeks. Officials in the UK believe that China delibertately underrepresented the number of coronavirus-related deaths that took place in Wuhan, potentially “by a factor of 15 to 40 times,” per Business Insider.
MSNBC continues to lead the way when it comes to far-left anchors making ridiculous statements.
On Thursday, Chris Hayes came up with a conspiracy so nutty that even he should be appalled with his words.
But he won’t be.
LOOK:
The most cynical interpretation of all this, one I can't quite bring myself to accept, is they rolled out the model showing 100k deaths after they knew it would be less than that so they could anchor everyone to that # and take a vicotry lap when "only" tens of thousands died. https://t.co/hYiUCHhO5g

Congressional Democrats have zero shame.
The Senate is ready to pass additional small business funding. The President is ready to sign it.
Houses Democrats are blocking it. The media is silent.
They think they can get away with anything.
Do not let them. Speak out. https://t.co/9pqNWltp6B

Instead of excercising or meditating or something…I can see that people are using this down-time in quarantine to hone-in their ability to argue endlessly on the internet. Bravo, guys. Didn’t expect any less. 😆😆😆
