    has he, he is still allowing China to do our 5g equipment for the cell towers

    what if they later do not want to give us patches for them, or worse infect them, shut them down

    Trump did not limit the mega corp tax cuts to only corps that do not outsource, companies that outsource American jobs still get them

    Ah, and you accuse others of not caring about people getting sick and dying from the virus, when all you care about it winning? Even if it means giving up your principles?

    It is nothing but a threat and it won’t happen.

    China does not want to cut ties with America because they make hundreds of billions of dollars off our market yearly.

    We also share our technology with China as part of the FTT agreements done years ago.

    China would be foolish to cut FTT ties with America over pharmaceutical drugs.

    China is a nasty country with horrible leadership, but they worship the American dollar. They are never going to do a short term move that may have economic consequences for decades moving forward.

    OK, Nerd. Let's just forget it. I like your conversation dude. Let's move on to something else, every word shouldn't be taken out of context.

    I for one would hope that China would impose the threatened pharmaceutical export controls, denying the USA drugs needed. Since the vast majority of these drugs are developed here, then sourced by the US pharmaceutical industry to their Chinese partners for production. It would show China's intensions loud and clear, and that is what America needs. Anyway China won't do it.

    "China totally isn't conducting biochemical warfare"! China: "Yep biatches, you're on your own.". Of course China is engaged in chemical warfare against the United States. This is why the Democratic Party can't lead us today. It's more concerned about how it LOOKS, rather than what it actually is.

    Trump had the foresight to say "It's not just Russia, China is also a pain in our ass." And the EU increasingly has become non cooperative and has allied with China on crucial issues. The EU-Chinese alliance was unexpected, but when you look closely the signs were there.

    The world simply doesn't want the US at the top anymore and we'll continue to see collaboration to take us down. And what we must do to respond to this effectively, is to take our chains and production back and to be self-sufficient as we were once again.

    You think the situation is funny? Is that because you think that the left can use any situation that might be harmful to the country to campaign on? How would you solve the issue of China controlling our supply chain? Just keep kissing their ass and ignore their control over vital products that we need?

    China had us by the balls, well before the trade war. The trade war was a response to it. The Chinese State is an enemy State towards the United States. I'm not going to do a Neville Chamberlain "peace in our time" crap. We will force the Chinese to change their behavior, or at worst we will replace their regime.

    First you think the virus issue is funny and now you think that karma for our country is a bitch because Trump doesn't want to kiss China's ass forever and tries to stop theft of patents from American companies and create our own supply chain. Libs gotta lib I guess. HAHAHAH, Karma's a bitch. Orange man bad!!!!!!!!!!! **** the USA!!!!!!!! Yay China!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHA

    Okay, okay, poor choice of words in an attempt of sarcasm, I admit.

    The essence of that posts still stands, however, namely that China is now using its position of strength to hurt the US. Which is exactly the Trumpian MAGA strategy of how to deal with other countries. You reap what you sow.
