While being forced to admit that China's coronavirus statistics aren't accurate, Russian born pseudo-American Max Boot writes glowingly;
It would be one thing to compare America's economy and pandemic response to Germany or Sweden--that would at least make sense. But Boot chooses to compare us to China, which hasn't been transparent whatsoever, and has even made doctors and researchers who tried to get accurate information to the public disappear. Why are these little germs like Max Boot so in love with China? Boot claims he left the Republican party because Trump was too unprofessional for him. Does he know who Xi Jinping is? China's leader is an actual dictator who will never leave his position of power. He runs real concentation camps in the southwest interior of China, which is something that Jewish people like Boot should be particularly sensitive to.
Why are neocon & neolib commentators like Boot in love with China?
President Trump claims: “This election is a simple choice: If Biden Wins, China Wins. When WE Win, YOU WIN.” But on the most important crisis facing the world right now — fighting the novel coronavirus — China is winning and America is losing. That’s because China is following the science and Trump is fighting it.
The United States (pop. 328 million) has more than 8.1 million confirmed coronavirus cases and more than 219,000 deaths — the most in the world. China (pop. 1.4 billion) has had fewer than 91,000 confirmed cases and 4,700 confirmed deaths. On Sunday, the United States had 47,637 new cases, compared with 13 in China. The U.S. death rate is about 670 per 1 million people. In China, it’s about three deaths per 1 million people. China’s numbers are probably not entirely accurate, but then, neither are ours — the number of American victims is likely much higher than the official figures indicate.
While the U.S. economy continues to stagger along, with unemployment claims increasing in early October, China’s economy surged by 4.9 percent in the third quarter compared with a year earlier. “The vigorous expansion of the Chinese economy,” the New York Times explains, “means that it is set to dominate global growth — accounting for at least 30 percent of the world’s economic growth this year and in the years to come.”
