question - because a virus originated in China and Trump may be trying to use that as leverage in trade negotiations, diplomatic reasons, furthering America as a superpower, etc., how is it racist to suggest that a worldwide problem emanated from a specific geographical area? I'm really asking a question - I don't understand how this is racist. Look, I think Trump is a blathering idiot but most of his policies have been effective for my taste so I cringe and put up with the stupidity of his comments at times. Because you can't stand him and he doesn't fit your political persuasion, you cry racism. If that's your opinion, you are certainly entitled it. I just don't understand how it is racist to attach a virus to where it started. Just admit you hate the guy and move along. I can definitely appreciate that. Just don't make shit up.

but it's likely wrong given what we know. For example, there has been an uptick in harassment against Asians in this country (and around the world). It's also been reported that Stephen Miller is a big proponent in the administration of using the terminology and Miller is a racist piece of shit. So if he thinks it's wise and fair to call it that, I am likely always going to assume the worst intentions.

that this is sarcasm, but I guess I was wrong.
