I’m not saying the quotes are fake, I’m saying the article is pushing a false narrative promoting administration talking points.

That Trump didn’t even deny it when directly asked tells you all you need to know. He also cut CDC funding while we’re at it.

i linked it b/c it's not behind a paywall

i mostly quoted quotes, from the person formerly in charge

you asked who is saying it? that guy. a person who once ran the program who denies it was disbanded

well after their utter failures, probably for the best

and no, they didn't fail b/c of funding issues. they (1) acted with hubris and (2) made human error

And he’s lying, or at the very least heavily spinning the facts to look better for Trump than they really are.

Trump himself doesn’t even deny this

Trump's style it to allow his subordinates to work. i doubt he has a full grasp of what happened b/c, at the time, he trusted Bolton

the guy who has experience running the outlet has more insight than Trump

It’s really not relevant though.

Why would you attempt to rebrand the name of the virus to describe the country of origin? When your entire rhetoric structure starts from the premise that America is under attack from foreigners, why wouldn’t the rebrand attempt be viewed as anything other than a politicized furtherance of that basic narrative?

Cool so from now on I can post articles from Vox or Mother Jones, with quotes from Obama officials describing what the Obama administration did, and you’ll take those articles and quotes as fact, right?

oh talking about the country of origin, and then the ban of travel from that country, isn't relevant?

but trying to discuss dogwhistling is?

it was the Wuhan Virus or Chinese Corona Virus in our lexicon long before COVID-19

you're not going to like this, but Trump is going to win on this. he's called out China for years and now they are clearly our enemy

in a month or 2 it's likely we deny care to Mexican refugees b/c they are doing frick all about this virus

Trump is going to be attacked for that too even though Mexico was the one closing the border

Being more aggressive towards China is something I don’t mind actually. Just don’t pee down my leg and tell me it’s raining. The rebrand attempt is 100% about keeping Trump’s base angry and scared.

if you admit Obama was the same style of administrator with the same level of competence to run an administration

you're building a strawman here that isn't necessary and won't do what you think it will
