As I already explained and you lyingly evaded, the U.S. when the pandemic began in Feb-March 2020 was dependent on China for over 90% of its pharmaceutical drugs and antibiotics, for its over the counter drugs like aspirin, ibuprofin and advil, and bleach, sanitary wipes, hydrogen peroxide and rubbing alcohol. China had already threatened to "drown the U.S. in a mighty sea of coronavirus."

While Trump in those months from Feb to December 2020 on railed literally hundreds of times on China for its unleashing Covid-19 on the world, and on both China and the WHO for being deceptive and witholding information about the virus's origins, maybe 15 times Trump made some polite diplomatic overtures toward China, to keep some degree of friendly relations with China, to discourage them from completely cutting our supplies off for much-needed medical supplies.
You are a vicious fucking liar to accuse Trump of being subservient and weak to China. It was Trump who completely cut off funding to the World Health Organization until its leadership was replaced, and piece-of-shit Manchurian candidate Biden who completely re-funded the China-owned WHO with absolutely no changes, that will allow the next pandemic to occur. It was Trump who vigorously pushed a trade deal with China, that re-negotiated trade in the U.S.'s favor.
And you lyingly ignore that Trump's China trade deal was just signed and the full impact of the changes was not in effect yet, and that what trade there was with China in the last year was negatively impacted by the pandemic, and that China was price-gouging us on medical supplies the U.S. desperately needed from March -Nov 2020. It is Trump who was and is pushing for production of PPE and other medical supplies, and other vital industries (form 2016-present, way before the pandemic), to be done in the U.S., that Biden is now undermining and reversing to again create foreiign dependence, and again put at risk our national sovereignty.

It is an absolute fact that Biden is weaker than Trump on every front: on U.S. energy independence, on U.S. military funding and preparedness, weaker on U.S. border security, that Biden undermined the most secure border in 50 years and created a porous open border that allows in terrorists, drug cartels and other criminals. That Biden's $6 trillion and rising deficit spending undermines value of the dollar, risks collapse of the dollar, risks the dollar ceasing to be the global reserve currency, and is already producing the U.S. highest annual inflation (6.5%) in over 40 years, and rising monthly. On every front, Biden's radicalism puts this nation at risk. And all this treasonous destruction, in just Biden's first 5 months !
God help us all.
