President Donald Trump seems to be buying into the conspiracy theory alleging that the COVID-19 virus came from a lab in Wuhan, China, and members of his administration are helping him peddle the claim.
“The President has his views on this,” the adviser said.
I’m getting very near the point where I have zero interest hearing what Trump’s idiot views are. I remember all the way back to Spicey’s repeated declarations that Trump has thought this or that idiot thought for a long time. It’s time for this society to grow the fuck up and start acknowledging that 99.9 repetend 9 percent of what he thinks is staggeringly wrong.
Lol. such a weakling. We all know he’s lying of course, but he still has to blame it on someone else pretending they’re telling him, the “President”, that he can’t say something. So just who exactly is this person that has more power than the President?
China actually behaved very poorly and has a lot to answer for. But the more Trump tries to blame them for his negligence and incompetence, the more he allows them to skate away without international opprobrium. The Chinese can easily deflect away from the issue by pointing out Trump’s utter mismanagement of the crisis.
“Of course, I’m allowed to spill US Intelligence Community methods and sources to Lavrov, Kislyak, and TASS in a closed-door White House meeting,” he continued, “but I’m not allowed to answer questions from the American Press Corps.”
If he’s going to shop for Intelligence, I hear the store requires two valid forms of ID, and a note from his guardian, Vladimir. And if he wants novichok, it’ll have to be in triplicate.
New rules in place since they got burned by Bush/Cheney. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Basically Benadick Donnie two scoops is pulling a fast one. Conspiracy theories run rampant during a pandemic and people are easy prey for nonsensical ideas to make sense of something that is hard to wrap our heads around. Possibly the only reason he goes there is because he can, that is the Benadick for you.
So mark one more up to ignoring the science folks with expertise, this time with lots of dead people as an immediate consequence. Thankfully the Governors are listening or it would be just more awful.
IC has already found against this theory and there’s nothing substanive supporting this in the scienific community.
That won’t satisfy Donnie, who knows right like some ascetic pummeling themselves for the love of God.
He’ll hire some investigators from WarmingDenial.org and keep reassigning this to IC, which will, with needed changes in management, announce a release of findings. Eventually, they’ll report indications supporting hair fuhrer’s chosen idea, not enough to verify it, but enough to keep it alive in the RW media sphere.
