    There are 2 ways to look at the relationship with Tommy Fisher. 1) some would say they deserve each other, or 2) Trump is very wise to put some distance between himself and Tommy. It is disappointing that so many warning signs were overlooked though.

    And yes, I knew Tommy professionally. He has sued people for less than I said here.

    Well I thought Fauci might not make the list. But who is he compared to Chuck Woolery about knowing anything on the virus?

    Fauci is winning. It's perfect.

    Fauci funneled million$ to the lab that curated the WuFlu and hasn’t apologized for it yet.

    Would you mind posting a link to something other than the normal rabid right sources?

    I can't wait to hear the right hand spun theory.

    Here is a "neutral" and possibly more holistic version.

    I posted it months ago in one of my origins of the WuFlu threads. Try this one and the references cited therein —

    Wuhan Lab Deep Into “Gain-Of-Function” Of Bat Viruses With Fauci Approval

    http://www.crackerbarrelphilosophers...Fauci-Approval

    Since I posted of Fauci’s funding and connections with the Wuhan Institute of Virology, I saw him admit the essence of the articles I posted, but dispute the reported sums expended, yet still maintain the efficacy of the project. I have no citation for that interview. Your Indian news article does a pretty good job of substantiating my description though. If, as I believe the facts more than intimate the Chinese along with our own good Dr. Fauci cooperated in seeking out the most virulent viruses they could find and experimenting on them in a notoriously leaky lab only to have a sample escape and infect the world, then I seriously wonder why we are putting a lot of faith in one of the principals saving us from his malfeasance?

    I don't see it as sinister as your post seems to indicate that you do.

    That said---I object to our giving research funds to any entity outside our borders without extenuating circumstances. If we restricted this kind of underwriting to domestic entities, those funds mostly accrue to our economy. Not only that, we benefit by whatever that R&R effort yields.

    I'd look to Congress to end these kinds of programs.

    Our complicity led by Dr. Fauci and support for a Chi-Com program which probably has killed 500,000 people so far, debilitated untold masses, and ruined economies, and all we are supposed to say is, “Maybe we should try better?”

    Because you and your rabid right sources say it is so---doesn't mean it is. I guess trump doesn't figure into any responsibility----oh---I know---of course not.

    I’ve asked you numerous times what Trump has done wrong with regard to the WuFlu, but no response so far. If you tell us what your specific criticism of Trump are in that regard, maybe we could agree on some.

    The simple fact is that wherever the virus arose, Zi, who took personal charge of Chi-Com efforts, and his regime knew of the dangers, took drastic efforts inside his country and flushed his carrier citizens all around the world knowingly. Trump has basically done what other countries have done in response with about average results.

    We rode this horse before. Your "above average results" is your opinion not mine.

    Above average by what measure? Show me the facts.

    “ABOUT” average results. You first, I want to know what Trump has done wrong from our local hyper Trump critic. If he is unwilling to even go there, it tells us a lot. What did the President do wrong or fail to do?

    Besides, I already cited the figures on the stats that matter - death rate - and argued that total numbers are merely a consequence of the U.S. superior testing numbers.

    You should save your venom for the one who deserves it — the Chi-Com’s and Dictator-for-Life, Zi.
