I think the worst thing we can do is allow China to bully us. It's not in our long-term national interest to let threats of economic coercion influence our politics and if we adopt such a defeatist attitude we'll end up losers regardless.
Also, I don't think the quite reasonable proposal of an enquiry to determine the origin of the virus, how it was contracted by humans and how it spread so far can be seen as 'biting the hand that feeds us'. One hundred thousand people are dead FFS.
I'm sure Donald can initiate this all on his own.
He's already done it. Its a biggly Chinese conspiracy with Crooked Hilary's hands all over it, probably from a lab but you never know, but if you can skull or mainline a bottle of Domestos you'll be fine.
And that's worse than "we allowed a US soldier into the country and let him walk around Wuhan and he had Covid19 and that's where it all started"? This is Baghdad Bob all over again. But, you tell me who is the bigger evil here.
The only reason China came to the table with the US for a trade agreement is the nutcase bloke sitting in that chair. (BTW; funny that they refused to sign until the US agreed to a pandemic release clause!) China would have told Obama to eff off (if he had done something about it which he didn't)
The only way the WHO will face up to its incompetence is the nutcase bloke sitting in that chair.
