if ever a country needs to press 'reset' this is it.....Unplug for a few minutes and let it reboot into something more sensible. |  |
| Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me.
Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing.
Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial.
Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid.
Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.

What's ironic is that the central thrust of their argument ...
"The Chinese government lied to the world about the danger and contagious nature of COVID-19, silenced whistleblowers, and did little to stop the spread of the disease," Mr Schmitt said. "They must be held accountable for their actions."
... is largely applicable to Donald J Trump, and well after the truth was already available. |  |

I think it should go ahead, it sets a good precedent. Looking forward to Native Americans finally getting a reasonable settlement from the rest of the United States... |  |

What you have to consider though is if this virus had come out of - say, Brazil, the world would be looking at Brazil to offer financial recompense and or Trump would have flattened the place by now.
China is different because China is China. |  |

Trump loves Brazil. They also have a malevolent psycho in charge, and one that butters him up. that's all he needs to get boner for you.
Guaranteed if this originated in Brazil you wouldn't be hearing a peep out of Trump. He's going after China because it plays well with his ignorant racist cult members and because they're a threat to his little dynasty. |  |

I have a very unpleasant image of the Brazilian president 'buttering trump up'. |  |

I am not aware who Trumps friends are but you're missing the point.
I am saying that if this virus had come out of anywhere except China or Russia there would have been stronger circumstances. | |

I'm not missing your point. I'm saying your point is too simplistic.
Trump only goes after those who he perceives as his enemy and not those who share his worldview, and most importantly, those who flatter him at every turn. If it had come from Brazil, Hungary, North Korea, The Philippines, Israel, Saudi Arabia (I could go on) he wouldn't be responding in this way.
He's probably laughing his c0ck off at his luck that it came from China. So yes, you're right that if it wasn't China he potentially wouldn't be responding that way, but it would be country dependent. There are plenty of countries he'd stay silent about. His stance on China is purely a political/racist one. [Post edited 22 Apr 2020 14:06]

What's kinda funny is that the rest of the western world has copied China into taking away the freedom of their people, so who knows whether it was deliberate or not..... |  | | |

I'm quite happy to have my freedom to die, and potentially kill others, suspended for a short while myself. | |
