Members of the U.S. media and Democrats should take pride in the fact that their efforts to undermine Trump have been recognized by the master propagandists in the communist Chinese government.
It really is quite an achievement. A nation that has expressed a hatred for all things American suddenly finds something praiseworthy in the U.S. And they really didn’t have to look very hard. Just click on the TV or a news website and they found Trump’s political foes praising China for doing an outstanding job in getting the pandemic under control.
The Global Times, a state-run Chinese tabloid, released a video recently highlighting various U.S. media personalities and Democratic leaders, who have pushed the Beijing-approved talking point that it is racist to refer to the virus by its country or city of origin.
The video features CNN’s Chris Cuomo and NBC News’s Richard Engel. The Chinese-produced propaganda also cites failed two-time presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio.
What if these media personalities and politicians appeared in a Trump campaign video? We’d never hear the end of it. But it’s OK to be seen praising a country that locked down millions of people at the point of a gun and “disappeared” anyone who criticized the government response?
Engel said earlier this month in one of the dumber soliloquies ever to grace television screens, “It is easy to scapegoat people, and that is what has always happened when there have been pandemics or epidemics. This is a virus that came from the territory of China but came from bats. This is a bat virus, not a China virus.”
A few mouth-breathing yahoos call some Chinese-Americans names and all of a sudden, we have a racial crisis on our hands. It wouldn’t be so bad if the media and Democratic politicians didn’t run as fast they could to appear in front of a camera telling us how virtuous they are because they oppose the idea of name-calling.
But the Chinese also appear eager to shift blame for the virus to Trump. And the American media and Democratic politicians are more than happy to oblige.
Gosh… could this be considered Democrats working with communist Chinese to affect the 2020 election?
It must do Democrats good to know who their allies are.
Funny how none of our resident Leftist trolls refute or comment on this one…
@Nathan Blue: What would they say? “Well, DUH!” ? No doubt they see nothing wrong with being on the same side as communists that unleased this virus on the world.
