LIVE- President Trump Press Conference on China 5-29-20
CNBC ^ | 5/29/20 | President Donald J. Trump

Posted on 05/29/2020 11:16:15 AM PDT by backwoods-engineer

President Donald Trump said Thursday he would hold a news conference “on China” on Friday, but he offered no details as to what he would say. Even without any details, Trump’s announcement Thursday at the White House was enough to send markets tumbling. For weeks, the Trump administration has been ratcheting up pressure on Beijing over its alleged cover-up of early coronavirus cases. Trump has publicly blamed China for the virus itself and for its outsized severity in the United States.

Yes I am sitting in Da Burgh as we speak.
Grew up here.

Though I do not actually say Yinz as when I came along Pittsburgh was in one of it’s regular twenty-year downcycles where there were no jobs here. So I was born in Ohio and my parents later moved back.

Thus they gave me the greatest gift any two parents can give their child: NOT moving back to Pittsburgh until after he had learned to speak.

Though particular drawly Southern things do come out of my mouth on occasion. My mom said that in Ohio we were the only non-Kentuckians living on the block.

I do not “watch the news”. I stopped that years ago. No local news at my house. I can get OAN but I want unbiased & unfiltered news so that I can make up my own mind.

5 or 6:00 news you can be sure they will be.

Sad that we have to wait for the teleprompter people to tell us what we should think.

Hopefully Maria B’s Wall Street on FB tonight @8 pm tonight.

Thanks for your insightful replies to my post.

I have to admit I was slightly taken aback with Tucker’s report — until I read that Trump’s offer was only for as much as the Chicoms were paying. That would mean something like 90 percent saving.

Of course, cutting off the filthy WHO commies without a penny is a lot better.

Trump is a man of his word — something no leftist could understand, wedded as they are to situational ethics, which in practice means no ethics at all.

Please tell me that they cut the access of ALL Chinese students to the university networks and all internet access until they have been thoroughly been investigated.

I love it there and miss the beautiful scenery. If I had my way, I’d move to New Wilmington or maybe even Lancaster County.

Here I was hoping he would stop China’s favored nation status.

Thanks. Please spread the usage of the term “Zampolits” for HR far and wide.

There's ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with that.

It is even more proper English from the Elizabethan period than what passes for English in London today.

You don't have to say Yinz. A "Y'all" is preferred. An "All Y'all" for everyone in the room.

This is the best part of the speech today by President Trump!

More than two decades ago on a rainy night in 1997, British soldiers lowered the Union flag and Chinese soldiers raised the Chinese flag in Hong Kong. The people of Hong Kong felt simultaneously proud of their Chinese heritage and their unique Hong Kong identity. The people of Hong Kong hoped that in the years and decades to come, China would increasingly come to resemble it’s most radiant and dynamic city. The rest of the world was electrified by a sense of optimism that Hong Kong was a glimpse into China’s future, not that Hong Kong would grow into a reflection of China’s past.
