#1 "Just finished a very good conversation with President Xi of China. Discussed in great detail the CoronaVirus that is ravaging large parts of our Planet. China has been through much & has developed a strong understanding of the Virus. We are working closely together. Much respect!"

#2 Trump is just issuing blather right now. He has a war going now, he will deal with Emperor Xi later.

Like when Seward wanted Pres. Lincoln to pick a fight with the British during our civil war over an incident at sea. "One war at a time," said the President.

Heh. All y'all just don't get Trump. He can be over the top, but he is fair. You come at him, he'll come back at you hard. Play nice and he'll say nice things in return. It is very Jacksonian.

Trump and Winnie the Xi just had a conversation. I expect they talked about grownup things. Judging by that quote in #1, the conversation went well and Trump probably got something he wanted.

Trump *could* have called him a slant-eyed, bat-licking Chinaman which would have played well with his political base, but he didn't. Instead, it was "good conversation, working together, much respect." It was the grownup thing to do. Ask yourself, which one better serves America?

#4 A whistleblower from the company has told the Herald it was a worldwide Greenland effort - and the Sydney office was no different, sourcing bulk supplies of surgical masks, thermometers, antibacterial wipes, hand sanitisers, gloves and Panadol for shipping.


A buddy who lives in a very small Australian town near Sydney said busloads of Chinese have been coming through town buying up staples like TP, paper towels, wipes, sanitizers, etc. The cashiers in the local stores put a stop to it when they refused to sell to the hoarders.
