While the Chinese puzzle how to become more like America without giving up the iron-fists of their police state, certain American politicians puzzle how to become more like the iron-fisted Chinese. They delight in the lock down, and relish their authority in enforcing it.Read more here.
Or maybe they think an America in pain is an America that will vote against the incumbent president this fall.
That incumbent is President Trump. Defying the lock-downers, this week he announced a plan to reopen America. The reopening happens in phases in different locales depending on the local circumstances. The feds will supply data, but the decisions and implementation are up to state governors and local mayors.
...And so yet again, for at least the third time in modern history, it will be America that will save the world from murderous authoritarians. It’s what we do.
It will entail the help of Gilead and other American companies that create, innovate, problem-solve, risk-take and (gasp!) profit. The Chinese unleashed a plague – the Chinese Virus compounded by a coverup. But Trump is unleashing something more powerful – American dynamism.
We’ll win. From every mountainside, let freedom ring.
