I can't argue with what she says, but it's a little late.

By several weeks.

White House Trade Advisor Peter Navarro explained in detail how China purposely hoarded personal protective equipment while lying to the world about the spread of Wuhan coronavirus. Once they cornered the market, the Chinese Communist Party inflated the price of PPE and in some cases, wouldn't allow U.S. companies based in the country to export their supplies.

"If you think about what China did over the course of this thing. They did four things that led to the deaths of many people world wide. First of all, the virus was spawned in China. Second of all they hid the virus behind the shield of the World Health Organization. The third thing they did was basically hoard personal protective equipment and now they're profiteering from it," Navarro said. "We know for a critical six week period of time China used its influence at the World Health Organization to hide the virus from the world."

"But here's what I think should be very disturbing to every American. During that period of time, that six week interval when they were hiding this virus from the world, China went from a net exporter of personal protective equipment, they are the largest producer of that in the world, to a large net importer. They basically went around and vacuumed up virtually all of the PPE around the world, including a lot in this country which was being shared for humanitarian reasons, sharing our PPE with them. What that did was leave people in New York, Milan and everywhere in between, defenseless," he continued.

I said like three weeks ago there will be a reckoning for CCP.

The problem with trying to shift the narrative now is that there are dozens of these they can point to.

[Jolly]

Look at the date.

[jon-nyc]

Yeah, he stopped in mid February.

But they'll point to it and say 'he loved our response, now he's just deflecting blame for his own failings' and there will be more than a grain of truth to it.

[Jolly]

They'd point to anything. At this point, the coyotes have howled so hard, for so long, at so little, it's mostly just background noise.
