Did you forget that Trump sent 14 tons of PPE to PPE producer China at the onset of our pandemic?

I did forget about that. Can you enlighten me and explain it to me, and maybe link me something about this? I've never heard of this.

According to that link, our government sent a bunch of PPE to China very early on in the pandemic, before it was actually declared a pandemic, with the support of the WHO, to help them try and contain their massive outbreak there.

Question #1- Why was that a bad thing, in your personal opinion?

Question #2- How did this benefit Trump financially, as you claimed above?

This statement by you at the top of the page clearly implies that he did it for himself. Can you see how an objective person would read this statement and infer that you do indeed suggest he is getting a financial gain for sending PPE to China?

Trump is motivated by revenge against late night comedians and the American public who've made him a laughing stock for over 40 years. The jokes go as far back as the Johnny Carson show.

Can you see how an objective person would read this statement and infer that you are claiming Trump is so mad at Jay Leno, Letterman, Carson, Conan, Oprah, The View, and many others, that he said "frick it, we're sending all our PPE to China, that'll show 'em!" ????

“This board” is far left loons like whiz, bacon, chill , etc I assume

Trump's go-it-alone strategy really hasn't exactly worked, or put "America first." This isn't 1950 where the rest of the world was left in ruins after WW2, and America was the global hegemon and could do what we wanted. The rest of the world has caught up. Especially China. The only way we are going to contain China is by teamwork with other western democracies. It's a symbiotic relationship. The fact that we contributed more to NATO was not a defect, but a design. By paying the most, we call the shots. Not some pussy country like France or Italy. If you want another example, by pulling out of the WHO, we missed out on tens of millions of COVID vaccines that instead went to "shithole" countries. So much winning.

In my opinion the most egregious example of this was what Trump did to the Kurds. It's not like we left Syria either. American troops are still there, just in the south. We pulled out of the north so Turkey could butcher the Kurds, and in return, Erdogan didn't nix Trump's hotel deal in Ankara.

Also, I bet you Trumpets got a hard on when you saw this. So much for being "pro-life"

Huh?

What in the Holy Hell are you talking about? WHO developed the vaccines? When did this happen?

---

No, of course not. Did I say that? But they did contract very early on to buy hundreds of millions of doses from the pharmaceutical companies, a lot of which would have gone to us.

Please explain how Trump contributed to the development of this vaccine. I’m waiting with baited breath. The credit is all on the pharmaceutical companies. And I will note for the record that Pfizer’s vaccine was developed by its German team. It might be headquartered in the U.S., but large pharmaceutical companies are international conglomerates. Your hated “globalists” as it were.

So Trump the xenophobe sent PPE to China? You libtards are always good for a chuckle.

Trump deserves credit for his part of a vaccine in a year. Obviously scientists deserve the bulk, but no denying Trump deserves his due.

Maybe it shouldn’t have been filled with bullshite then and should’ve just had to do with COVID.
