"//lately they've been pushing the theory that the ultimate origin was a lab near Wuhan. //
Who knows? They could be right."
Maybe, although there doesn't seem to be any evidence for it, at least none publicly available. Trump and Pompeo have hinted in the past that they have such evidence, and there may be good reason for this not to have been released if it exists, but on the other hand US Intelligence officials have repeatedly rejected the suggestion.
When people start posting about China's lies about the US then I'll comment on it. I don't see why I, or anyone else, should need to give an exhaustive list of the things I disapprove of.
If a virus had originated in a small city in the USA, that just happened to have an Institute of Virology (WIV) and Centre for Disease Control, I doubt people would believe it if Trump said Covid-19 had originated from red necks eating squirrels or whatever.
There is no doubt in my mind the virus originated from Wuhan and I believe it was an accident.
If the virus is from bats as claimed ie bird flu, bats & birds would also suffer. As no birds or animals suffer, am convinced its a lab gene. A weapon of mass destruction; how else have chinese leaders not been affected?
No conspiracy theorists try to explain situations by bending the facts to suit their story. These are facts : Two institutes within 300 yards of the so called 'wet market' where the virus was supposed to have originated. That is fact. No conspiracies, accidents can happen, and China is not renowned for its integrity.
Didn't Fauci or some other vaccine grifter remove funding from the Wuhan lab shortly after the outbreak? You'd think they'd increase funding not block it.....unless they know something we don't know.
By the way, I'm fairly confidant they don't sell bats in wet markets.
But the Wuhan lab was studying corona viruses in bats.
//She asked a nasty rude question and got her April kicked, go Donald//
What made the question so rude (and the reporter moronic)? It seemed a perfectly reasonable question to pose. The logical answer would have been "I don't think its a competition, I just want to defeat this virus as quickly as possible", but as usual, Donny tried to redirect the question towards his usual dumping ground.
//There is no doubt in my mind the virus originated from Wuhan and I believe it was an accident.//
I think most would agree with that. The big question is whether the accident was a result of human intervention of some kind; whether that was doing tests in a lab, putting animals together that shouldn't be together, or in some other manner.
If Trump were a leader rather than the world's oldest preteen, he'd be able to answer the question thus:
Journalist: Why do you think this needs to be a competition?
Trump: Because we are trying to compete to have the fewest deaths of any country afflicted by this disease. The winners will be the families who don't lose loved one.
That would've been the correct response.
But that's something that President Obama would've said, and alas it's May 2020, not May 2016.
