    ~ We need not have "deals" with a country that shouts "Death to America ". Nor should we be sending cash to these countries. China should be next on the list .

    China will just wait for Joe

    Swallwell says they currently have a credible foreign election threat to investigate

    ~ China will likely try to derail the Trumpocalypse -and they will get caught . Meanwhile Russia will enjoy the show.

    China just made a huge trade deal with Iran

    We shut down a consulate

    China basically gave our sanctions on Iran the finger

    We had a deal with Iran.. No chance now.

    Why wouldn't China help Trump continue to destroy us?

    ~ We obviously have a different point of view . Trump is the first president to resist China's influence . Even Nixon was aware dealing with China was dangerous and perhaps he made a mistake.
    Countries like Iran , China and North Korea belong together . Now it is up to the rest of the free world to step up and stand against communist dictatorship. If they do a military conflict can be avoided .

    If there aren't enough ventilators what happens to the mortality rate?? When the hospitals fill up the mortality rate spikes. It's a moving target and not a good number to base success on.. Positivity is a more crucial numbers

    Trump has all the numbers now.. Guess what.. Cases have leveled off at 75K a day.. Do I believe it?? Not Really. In Fauci We Trust. In Trump?? Not so much.

    TRUMP DISMANTLED THE CDC IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC!!!!!

    ~ Fauci said the virus was nothing to worry about, advised against travel restrictions and said masks were useless. Fauci flip-flops too much. Good thing Trump didn't listen.
    There are always enough ventilators. U.S. just sent some to Mexico .

    The bottom line is that we spend 10 Trillion over the last 20 years on regime change wars - getting nowhere - with no return on investment - and now Russia/China are going to reap the reward - gaining hegemony over much of the region.

    This is not a Red/Blue issue - this is a "we are on the wrong path" issue.

    China's cheap labor can be replaced. US buying power cannot. Given China's past, we can assume that any technology they got from us will be shared with Iran. Perhaps not giving them any more is a good idea.

    Certain US companies HAVE ALREADY reaped the benefit, by way of plunder of the US Treasury. Ike warned about it in 1961.

    The Global War Of Terror is the gift that keeps on giving for the war profiteers.

    It is a bad thing that we tossed so much good money after bad - for so long. Kind of like the definition of insanity - doing the same thing over and over - getting the same result - but expecting a different one.

    and what did we receive for our 20 year investment ? - they hate us now more than ever :applause::applause::deadhorse::deadhorse::deadhorse:

    Or the Gift that keeps on taking - depending on one's perspective - those on the hook for the 10 Trillion dollar debt did not far so well.
