A falsified image published by the Chinese Foreign Ministry depicting an Australian soldier beheading an Afghan child also generated outrage among Australians. Sam Kennard, the CEO of Australian Self Storage company Kennards’, urged Australian businesses to eliminate Chinese suppliers on Wednesday, News.com.au reported. “The Chinese Communist Government has proven to be difficult to trust,” Kennard told News Corp Australia’s NCA NewsWire. “They’ve placed tariffs on [Australian] lobster, wine, and barley out of revenge or spite and the risk is, you just don’t know who is next,” he said.

And yet, “president-elect” Joe is just salivating to hand over America the Chi-coms.

Hubby and I were discussing the willingness for the democrat party to bow and scrape before China. It boils down to one thing, money. Democrats would willingly sell out this country if it meant they would get filthy rich. As usual, they don’t think this through. Once the Chinese have bought you, you will obey whatever they say. It’s all fun and games in the beginning when the money is rolling in, but then, the pressure to obey builds until you are nothing but a slave to their demands. To believe they will be honest partners is the height of naivety. The Bible tells us the love of money is the root of all evil-I give you the democrat party and every squishy Republican who believes China is our friend.

Why are we doing business with China? That country has a horrible human rights record. We don’t need their cheap crap. Make stuff in America and trade with other countries like the UK and Australia that treat their people properly.

China is once again going to be an overpopulated, starving nation and when the people finally turn on Xi it won't be pretty. Much like North Koreans, they deserve better.

It's really hard to avoid buying Chinese-made products but everyone should try.

Maybe Australia is slowly waking up to the realization that if America goes down, they are going to become a big vacation island for China?

Buying non-chicom products like cars, houses, and food products is easier. But, buying non-chicom clothing apparel is darn hard. Buying non-chicom technology like laptops, ipads, and cell phones is easier, but, only the final assembly point is shown on the label. Buying non-chicom sporting goods and housewares is nearly impossible - you just need to look hard. Very hard.

I've already been boycotting Chinese products for years. If it says "Made in China", I put it back on the store shelf. I try to research where larger purchases were made too. Not always successful but I make an effort not to support the Chinese. Can't get my husband to this but I try.

And yet they hate Trump who stands up to China. My husband, an Australian has been stuck there since March, says not just the media, but everyday "folks" rant against big orange man.

#4 - "It’s all fun and games in the beginning when the money is rolling in, but then, the pressure to obey builds until you are nothing but a slave to their demands." These people are in their 70's and 80's, with some fast approaching their 90's, and their bodies and minds are winding down. They have got to be tired! Biden, Pelosi, Feinstein, Schumer and McConnell, INC are fully paid-for commodities, and very expensive commodities. I don't think the Communist Chinese believe in retirement.
Last night on TCM was "The Devil and Daniel Webster", from a 1936 short story by Stephen Vincent Benét, with a great cast headed by Walter Huston. I haven't seen the movie since I was a kid and I could only remember the end. A young farmer with everything going wrong is approached by a man named Scratch, who offers a bag of gold and seven years good luck. The farmer need only sign over his soul; something Scratch tells him doesn't exist; a nothing, you can't hold it, touch it or see it. He agrees and Scratch pricks his finger for the blood with which the contract is signed. Of course, moral ruin is the result but with contrition in the final hour before the contract comes due. By a twist of fate Daniel Webster acts as a defense lawyer for the farmer in a court straight from hell, with Benedict Arnold as the jury foreman, yet wins the case...and the farmer's soul.
This great American morality play should be shown to every citizen. Its a grand production from a time when Hollywood was peopled by patriots and lovers of God. I noted that it was made in 1940, on the eve of WWII, and set in the America of 1840. An America where Revolutionary War veterans lead the town parade. An America where people still understood what being a Freeholder meant to being a citizen, and great men would fight for the farmer. God did not make Donald J. Trump to have him be a sacrificial lamb to the godless communists. Every attack on President Trump is an attack on every American. We are in this fight together with our Lion leading an army of 80 million wronged citizens with moral authority behind them. Our leader is not stepping down and neither are his Deplorables, who are stepping forward with their testimonies or protesting in their state capitols. This courage is born from the example of our President, and the people turning back to God. Above the evidence, above our actions, above our dedication, our first and most powerful weapon in this fight is prayer. Evil is powerless against Faith and Prayer.
