WASHINGTON — The COVID-19 pandemic, in an unexpected but potentially fateful twist, has moved the United States and China a big step closer to a new cold war.

Attack the network of manufacturing and other economic ties that have grown between the two countries over the last 40 years.

Meanwhile, the tariffs that Trump imposed on billions of dollars in goods from China — and the counter-tariffs from Beijing — remain in place, adding to the cost of trade at a time when many businesses are struggling to stay afloat.

The old saying goes that when trade stops moving, armies start moving.

Nope. Too much economic entanglement.

Once this is all over, they’ll continue making stuff, we’ll continue buying it, and they’ll continue being asshoe.

Probably a reflection of how many aspects of people’s lives right now are being dictated by political decisions.

Well the “politics” board is basically a MAGA board.
It’s like if Tiger Rant was called the college athletics board

We should take the fight to them! Fight Fire with Fire. Need to start spamming that sewer with threads about college football and beautiful women.

It'll get ugly when the medication supply starts getting really short from it.

Sadly, through many administrations, we put ourselves in a position to be economically owned by their asses.

This didn't just start with COVID. This has been going on for quite a while now. COVID just brought it front and center to many more people.

When government touches every aspect of your life 24/7, everything becomes political.

We have been at war with them for quite some time. Unfortunately lots of “our” politicians had been bought a long time ago. Time to get the traitors out of DC and implement term limits.

When was the last time there was a real military war between two countries with nuclear power?

I think you're wrong. Theres too many pissed off people in this country and the world. China covered this up, threatened the doctors trying to expose this and then let their people infect the world. There will be a price to pay.
