    America and China are both HUGE polluters. I don't know what point you are making. If you want to be upset with China look to American Republican polocies on the environment. Trump's polices pollute just as much as China. If one is reposible both are. But the Republican argument is that since global warming is fake and only Jesus can make the planet hotter it's fine to have no regulations on anything.

    Why is it China? They eat meat and have a society built around the 1% which does not like world events that upset their wealth or make the country look weak so it's best to lie. Again similar to Trump.

    Well they believe that aliens are headed to earth to destroy and enslave mankind, and only if you follow their religious practices,
    will their leader place a 3-Dimensional wheel in your stomach which will allow you to levitate and defeat the alien scourge

    This makes me wonder

    Has anyone considered that wanting zero CO2 emissions in their own countries is a big part of the reason we've become so strategically dependent on China?

    Here's how well Steve Schmidt thinks Trump is doing.
    Steve was a republican strategist for George W. Bush, Arnold Schwarzenegger, John McCain, Will T. Scott, Matt Fong, and Lamar Alexander.
    He was advisor to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, Dick Cheney, was the spokesman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, and was responsible for the U.S. Supreme Court nominations of Samuel Alito and Chief Justice John Roberts.



    He left the Republican party in 2018 over disputes with Donald J. Trump.​

    While muddling through the various facets of his job with little understanding, Trump recognized an opportunity to present himself as some sort of mental giant on TV. He issued a statement concerning his powerful authority. He told the governors of America's fifty states that he held the power to order them to open their states to commercial activity, regardless of the medical danger presented by a very contagious virus which has no known cure. The governors quickly told him to go jump in the lake and forget how to swim. With his usual limited mental prowess, Donald Trump replied that the governors were free to call their own shots. What Trump seems to not understand is that America's laws are written by its Congress; moreover, all of America's laws which pertain to commerce fall under The Congressional Power provided in the Commerce Clause. On top of that, Congress has the Necessary and Proper Clause which gives broad authority over a wide spectrum of laws. It says Congress makes the laws and the Executive Branch is supposed to execute the law, not re-write it. So, Trump is having a tough time understanding our American concept of The Separation of Powers. After being impeached for withholding Congressionally ordered money for Ukraine, he again --with limited memory-- has ordered the withholding of Congressionally ordered money for The World Health Organization. One of the most irritating matters in Trump's aristocratic world is the Congressional power which declares All Bills Of Revenue Must Originate In The House Of Representatives. That means Trump has no power to screw with the source of the money, and Mitch --country boy-- McConnell can't help him. When it comes to money, Nancy Pelosi is the Queen Of The Silver Dollar. And that's the one major irritation in Trump's life as he muddles with the facets of his job and the response to Miss Coronavirus. Trump does not know how to work with a woman.
     
  13. Yea because social division along racial lines is SO "cool" now. Here's a hint, If someone is telling you to hate someone, something is wrong.

    The only party telling me to hate is the White Christian Republican Party. They want me to hate all sorts of minorities. They want me to hate the environment, clean water, clean air, free medical care, and socialism in general. They want me to hate my own religion and accept Jesus as my personal savior so I could be taken up with them to heaven when the Rapture happens. Wow, what astonishing advice?

    And the latest is he's proposing to "liberate" three states with Democratic governors from gubernatorial measures to control the virus. Remember that! The man is obviously playing politics, intruding into state policy, and over-riding medical considerations. Remember who on HF praises the move. Watch them walk away from it if it turns out to be a disaster! Trump blasts new coronavirus message: 'LIBERATE' swing states that have Democratic governors
