Didn’t we try to send our CDC there to help and get denied?

Didn’t we send China our medical supplies which we now need desperately?

Team Colin Powell begins again its attack against the
ELECTED PRESIDENT.

Did Powell know about the Wuhan virus early?

Haas, an Obama administration hack, has always been a Leftist globalist enemy of a free America.

There’s a video from a bit back in Italy, in order to ‘protest’ perceived racism against Chinese, Chinese men wearing breathing masks stood on the streets encouraging Italians to virtue signal by giving them hugs. So women were hugging Chinese who were sick with the beer bug, virtue signaling.

Basically, the Chinese weaponized virtue signaling to increase infections in Italy.

I find this truly astonishing and disgusting.

The media meanwhile, appear to be defending the Chinese with virtue signaling of their own.

Identity politics needs to end.

This idiot’s globalist deep-state friends were busy impeaching Trump when this started.

[griswold3]

I predicted that the “progressives” would lay the blame for delay on Trump !
This should not stand.

When was the Council of Foreign Relations ever right about anything. I became a member when just beginning my career. After just a few events I quit. I soon realized they were just a bunch of bloviating nincompoops who thought very highly of themselves.

I have a sense the Chinese did this deliberately, an act of war, and hence the reason the govt is saying we are on the eve of a circumstance like WWII. No reason for all this for a simple virus.

[Alberta's Child]

Richard Ass really exposed himself as an ignorant A-hole here.

Just one more reason why I consider any affiliation with the Council on Foreign Relations to be a disqualifying factor for any person seeking any degree of public trust. These are disloyal globalist pricks from top to bottom.

[Rastus]

Hmm. Who knows what the president might have been able to accomplish without years of Democrat investigations, judges unilaterally stripping powers Constitutionally assigned to the Executive Branch, and every other left wing plot aimed at hobbling him and his administration?

Richard Haass

He has been president of the Council on Foreign Relations since July 2003, prior to which he was Director of Policy Planning for the United States Department of State and a close advisor to Secretary of State Colin Powell.

The Senate approved Haass as a candidate for the position of ambassador and he has been U.S. Coordinator for the Future of Afghanistan. He succeeded George J. Mitchell as the United States Special Envoy for Northern Ireland to help the peace process in Northern Ireland, for which he received the State Department's Distinguished Service Award.

At the end of 2003, Mitchell Reiss succeeded him as special envoy. In late 2013, Haass returned to Northern Ireland to chair inter-party talks aimed at addressing some of the unresolved issues from the peace process such as parades, flags and "the past".

Oh and he is a Republican (Make that a RINO)

When this is over it’s time to go medieval on China. They screwed up big time and they have to pay one way or another.

Why don’t you give International Extortionist/Kickbackman another forum, DICK?

I do hope we can all go beyond just analyzing every claim according to whether it is pro-Trump or anti-Trump. The difficulty getting testing up quickly was a major screwup. We will see, but all those people returning from Europe waiting in crowded lines at airports this past Sunday may be another one, We should not minimize the incompetence in the executive branch to this point.

It’s been great that the president has used his authority to at least talk to CEOs about ramping up production of ventilators, and also worked to get production of various other services mentioned in his press conferences going. But that the ventilator task in particular, the need for which was predictable a month ago, is only now (possibly; not a single ventilator has been produced yet because of these initiatives) being planned is a screwup. We all hope it’s not a costly one,

I hope I am wrong, but it appears that with respect to the mundane tasks necessary to save future patients’ lives, we are still struggling.

IMHO; if you think these tasks are not critical or will be pulled off quickly please let me have it.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Have to change the spelling of Richard Haas’s name to “Richard Ass”.

CFR, don’t believe anything they say or write without double checking it.
