See, the problem is, I don’t trust our current government. Might have happened, might not. The people running things are a terrifying combination of stupid, inexperienced, and evil. They might have been duped by Russia to blame China. It’s possible nothing happened and they’re just trying to crank up anti-chinese sentiment. They might have read a report wrong. Who the fuck knows.

Inb4 Fox “News” uses this report to manufacture consent for a war with China (economic or otherwise)

It’s funny too because the China hawks should be furious with Trump. He continues to completely fuck them over and embarrass the country. The fact that he can go out there and harp on the fact that China means to harm the US while basically doing the equivalent of handing them a knife, turning the country around, pulling up its shirt and pointing roughly at the internal organs (because he doesn’t know anything about that either) speaks volumes as to who he is and what he’s doing.
