Fortunately, despite that The Orange Pustule is rambling about lately, there is no evidence of any gene engineering of this virus. And yes, people have looked at it with that thought specifically in mind. People who do genetic engineering, so they do have a good idea how to tell.
That doesn’t matter at all to the folks who drink the Orange Koolaid, but it does matter to a majority of US voters and a super-majority of the voters who let the facts lead them to conclusions.
If China should be held accountable for where the virus came from, who should be accountable for what happened once it got here?
We got the same information (if not better) as soon as every other country did (if not earlier).
We had (until recently) an organization in place specifically created to anticipate and coordinate response to a pandemic such as this, which medical experts had warned was inevitably in the offing.
We now have a FULL ONE-THIRD of all active cases in the world, and we have yet to see that the Executive Branch has any idea what to do about it. If you buy a used car and the brakes are shot, go ahead and blame the seller. But if you’re drunk behind the wheel when you drive it into a crowded bus stop, that’s mostly on you.
Trump is raising a dust storm of confusion and blame-shifting hoping to blind voters to his mistakes and failures which continue even now. But when the numbers start coming out of Georgia and Florida, in addition to Iowa and other meat packing centers, those are his people and their families who are dying.
Does anyone have any evidence that the WHO knew that China was lying, and covered it up. Remember, until a case was discovered in Thailand, China was everyone’s only source of information about the virus. Even if China was lying about something, that was the best information we had at the time. And even before China admitted that it was transmissible, the WHO was already suspicious that, like MERS and SARS, nCov-19 could be transmitted from human to human.
Another conspiracy theory, and another bunch of idiots that believe them. Do you also buy into chemtrails, UFO coverups and Bat Boy, Ramirez? Do you really believe that governments have developed such futuristic technology that they can custom design pandemic viruses? I may not know medicine, but I know electronics. The idea that an electronic tracking device, along with the necessary source of power, can be developed that is so small it can be injected unnoticed through a hypodermic needle (as many RWNJ’s claim) can only be believed by someone with a brain even smaller than that. All that, and it has to transmit data with enough power to be read from a distance? I think some people in the modern world have not progressed beyond the point of blaming their problems on enemies casting an evil spell.

Trump claims he did not know about the virus until March 11.
The first reported USA death was in Wash state at the end of January.
THE FACTS: Not once did Trump describe the COVID-19 outbreak as a possible pandemic until after the WHO declared it so on March 11. On the contrary, from January until March, he repeatedly suggested the virus was under “control” and that cases were going “down, not up” and would even completely disappear with warm weather by April, often contradicting his own health experts.
Trump also has described the coronavirus as a “hoax,” although he later made clear that he was referring to Democratic criticism of his handling of the outbreak.
Trump wasted months not testing, Feds still are not testing, you can’t open the country without testing, Trump is delaying the opening of the country by not testing, then he blames anyone and everyone but himself, these are the actions of a person who does not act rationally.
Ramirez, I love your artwork, but you’re such a tool, repeating whatever toxic nonsense gets spewed from your master’s pie hole. Yeah, he said he saw evidence that the virus came out of a lab, contradicting his intelligence peoples’ findings that that didn’t happen. Then he said that he couldn’t show us the evidence because he’s not allowed to talk about it. Right. The one person in the country who has the power to declassify whatever he sees fit, is not allowed to talk about it. Do you want to know the real reason he can’t talk about that evidence? BECAUSE IT DOESN’T EXIST!!
Holy accountability? Trump takes credit when anything goes right, whether he had anything to do with it or not, then blames everyone else when anything goes wrong.

Sure, it’s all China’s fault— get some cash from them. That’s the important thing to focus on, money. /s
Four months in and:
• no testing for the general public
• no plans for testing
• no intelligent strategy for re-opening
• no protection for workers
• no protection on mass transit or airplanes
• home-made masks or none at all— in 21st century America
• no hope for any leadership from Trump— just blame, bragging, and more blame
This administration stalled around incompetently for four months while 60,000 Americans died. What will they do for an encore?
