Trump said the US 'could cut off the whole relationship' with China

Post by Clutch Cargo »

“There are many things we could do. We could cut off the whole relationship,” Trump said in an interview on Fox Business that aired Thursday. “Now if you did, what would happen? You’d save $US500 billion if you cut off the whole relationship.”

He also said he was upset with the country for failing to contain the virus, which originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan.

“I’m very disappointed in China,” Trump said.

The administration is weighing several proposals to punish China by demanding financial compensation or stripping the country of its “sovereign immunity” to enable lawsuits from the US government and others, The Washington Post reported.

Because China would respond to a lawsuit? Good luck with that.
And of course there's no way the US would cut the relationship with China. There's Waaay too much money being made by the ultra-rich for that to happen. Sure the tax payers may save $500billion, but the rich would lose more. Not gonna happen.
Another situation of Trump spewing meaningless bullshit. I just don't understand whether he believes this shit when it comes out of his mouth, and then someone corrects him and he has to go back and correct himself publicly, or if it's all a big ploy.
Do you think the parents of baby boomers whined so much when the boomers started changing society? And yet the whiney ones like to call young people "snowflakes." Hmm...

He said you could shine a torch up your ass and cure Corona virus. Four more fucking years, though, that orange moron will be running the shop until 2024. Unless he dies, and then Jesus gets a go at top. [Mod edit: deleted racist slur]

Yeah because he throws his enemies into forced labour camps, where they are worked to death unless they escape with a shot to the back of the head or because starves millions of people into submission.

Congrats for winning the the silliest comment on the internet award for today.

Keep the pressure on Don, its working. Love the letter you are supposedly sending to the WHO starting our contributions again, limited to the SAME amount as paid by China. Should have conditioned it on Taiwan being made a full member, that will spit in the face of the CCP.

Its interesting that so many folks accept the genocidal murderous crimes of Communism. Sad.

who accepts them? even russians hate stalin today, china is fanatically capitalist

capitalism isnt innocent...here is one just for starters



i wonder how many died during colonial times

the bible has a truth about the love of money being the root of all evil

both communism and capitalism are in love with money

not a political system, its human greed

Would like to see Chimerica dismantled and bring manufacturing jobs back to Americans.

(May be wishful thinking on my part.)

Don't see the relevance here. Another bullshit race baiting has nothing to do with China. [Mod edit: yep, deleted]
