Take heed, America, and remember this when the crisis passes.
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times – although right now it just seems like the worst of times, with the world stricken either by the Chinese coronavirus itself (that’s right, I called it Chinese) or by the media-fanned panic about it. But a silver lining of any crisis, perceived or real, is that it swiftly reveals who one’s friends really are – whom you can trust when the chips are down – and that is a vital lesson for Americans to take to heart.
Conversely, of course, a crisis also exposes who one’s enemies are, and that may be an even more valuable lesson to digest. Whom has the coronavirus pandemic shown to be the enemies of the American people? Let us run down the list.
China is not your friend. More specifically, the Communist Chinese regime – not the Chinese people as a whole – is not your friend. This should come as no surprise to most Americans, but as Bill Gertz notes in his recent book Deceiving the Sky: Inside Communist China’s Drive for Global Supremacy, in past decades American governments, both Democrat and Republican, have suffered from a willful blindness about that country stemming from the false assumption that “if the United States simply conducted business with China, the Communist regime in Beijing would eventually evolve into a free market, democratic system,” and then we would be partners. Unfortunately, the plain fact is that China is driven not only to position itself as the world’s preeminent superpower, but to destroy America in the process.
The coronavirus originated in China (and may even have been weaponized in a lab; the leftist media treats this possibility as a conspiracy theory, of course) and the regime did its utmost to suppress any information about it even as countless numbers of Chinese travelers spread it abroad. For that reason, the culpability for the many thousands of coronavirus deaths worldwide, as well as the devastating economic impact, can be laid directly on the regime’s doorstep. China officially continues to deny responsibility and has even attempted to shift blame to the United States, because the left’s automatic, go-to strategy is to accuse others of that of which you are guilty.
Our willful blindness has been reinforced by the establishment news media’s obsession with Russia since 2016, which has provided recent cover for China’s dangerous ambition. Which brings us to…
The leftist news media is not your friend. American patriots have long known that the Democrat-controlled news media is the enemy of the people, never more so than during the age of Trump. Indeed, he occupies the Oval Office in large part because he relishes exposing so many so-called journalists as the leftist activists they are, and goading them into confirming their bias every day.
News propagandists at every network have disseminated Chinese disinformation about the coronavirus, whipped up hysteria about it, ignored positive developments, and steered blame toward Trump. Chuck Todd (pictured above, with Joe Biden), to name one media hack, shamefully declared that the President has “blood on his hands.” Citizens who care about the truth and about making America great again must choose from two options: tune them out or call them out. Either way, never forget that they have no interest at heart but Democrat power. And that leads us to…
The Democrat Party is not your friend – even if you are a Democrat. Again: no surprise to those on the right. But decades of Democrat lies, media complicity, ideological conformity, and demonizing of Republicans as racist troglodytes have deluded many millions of Americans into believing that Progressives are the party of hope and change, love and tolerance, flowers and unicorns.
From the very moment the coronavirus outbreak hit the news, the Democrats saw an opportunity to exploit it and weaponize it against President Trump, the man they had failed to take down first through a fruitless three-year investigation into his purported collusion with Russia, and then through a shamefully partisan stab at impeachment. They fantasized that this pandemic could be Trump’s Katrina, a disaster they could pin on him just in time for the coming election. It mattered not whether hundreds of thousands or even millions of Americans could die, as some Democrat leaders and their media enablers hysterically warned they will; what matters is that the pandemic could tank the economy, which had been booming under Trump.

I do not know who is worse Speaker Nancy Pelosi or Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Both are serving the constituates, not the voters but those that fill the campaign chests.
Pelosi has shown that Planed Parenthood, the state and local democrat organizations, those that want power, and those willing to take less welfare are he constituate she is working for. But the communist (Burnie Sanders branch of the Democratic Party) have force Pelosi to declare their position openly in public. The old base of the Democratic party find themselves thrown under the wheels of the Sanders branch.
I believe that Trump will give the performance of Reagan in his second term a run for the most states and highest delegate count. We can thank Burnie Sanders and Nanci Pelosi.
The less obvious theat is Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. The money dumped into the campaign coffers helped title him as "Cocaine Mitch" For conservative candidate the was more ruthless then the Democrats and on Occasion preferred a Democrat over a conservate Republican He called himself "Grim Reaper." I am not sure how he got this title, "Moscow Mitch." I am sure there is a money trail to explain it.
Mitch McConnell is for for a power grab by the federal government because in will increase his power and add significantly to the war chest. He would support a fourth, fifth, etc. welfare program funded by the printing press. To make voters beholden to government and his supporters want to eliminate the competiton, smaller business that are more nimble.
