This video explores CBS Reporter Weijia Jiang's question and President Trump's "Ask China" response to whether the question was warranted and the response was justified. (don't ask me ask china, ask china trump explained, ask china trump) The next time someone says, “there’s no such thing as a stup*d question.” show them this clip… CBS Reporter Weijia Jiang: You said many times that the U.S. is doing far better than any other country when it comes to testing. Why does that matter? Why is this a global competition to you if every day Americans are still losing their lives and we’re still seeing more cases every day? President Donald Trump: Well, their losing their lives everywhere in the world. And maybe that’s a question you should ask China! Don’t ask me! Ask China, okay! When you ask them that question you may get an unusual answer. CBS Reporter Weijia Jiang: Sir, why are you saying that to me, specifically that I should ask China? President Donald Trump: I’m not saying it specifically to anybody. I am saying it to anybody who would ask a nasty question like that.[1] "Why does it matter if we do better than other nations in testing?" It's because by comparing our nation to other nations we get a better sense of the job we’re doing instead of say comparing what we’re doing to [insert your ideal vision of what should be done] because compared to an ideal no matter what Trump does he’d fall short. It’s commonsense to compare our response to real-world alternatives, which the mainstream media does all-the-time whenever they think Trump is doing something wrong… And her question was nasty because she used a manipulative emotional appeal to basically say to the president, “Americans are dying and you are talking about irrelevant sh*t. What’s that about?” Such a stup*d and nasty question would have angered any president. And then when he responded in a similar fashion to how he’s responded to similar questions in the past she chose to get offended like a 5th grader on the playground… If her concern about “Americans losing their lives” was genuine then wouldn’t her follow-up question been more geared toward clarifying his solution instead of feigning offense? And as soon as a fact stops advancing the mainstream media’s agenda, they conveniently ignore it even though they were the ones who once pushed it… For example, the mainstream media has frequently scolded the president for blaming China instead of taking responsibility for the crisis’s negative consequences… In this video from over a month ago they counted how many times Trump said “China” in one press conference… So whether or not you think Trump should take more responsibility for the coronavirus, the bottom-line is that a r ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62pUJF7oTPE

It’s not surprising young people are socialist when we don’t own anything. We don’t own our homes, cars, labor, subscribers, or much of our income as it’s taken to pay off college debt. If conservatives want young people to be more capitalist than preaching to them about its virtues will only go so far as nature and the system intended humans to be more low-information short-term focused. Therefore to make young people more capitalist we need to make capitalism align more with the youth’s short-term self-interest! We need to Make America Own Again! We need to be a nation of homeowners, business owners, content owners, crypto-owners, and stockholders! Once the average young American has a greater stake in the economy then they’ll care more about its overall health and freedom since it’ll affect their own wallet. There are numerous ways to increase American ownership, but what will have the greatest positive impact is deregulating the banks. I know that’s an unpopular and uncommon opinion precisely because despite what we’ve been taught by the influence-industrial complex it would hurt, not help the 1%! "It is no coincidence that the century of total war coincided with the century of central banking." In simple terms, the federal government protects big banks from risk in order to encourage lending. Ostensibly, politicians want to make lending easier because they’re so CARING AND COMPASSIONATE! People who couldn’t get a loan in the 80s can now take out a MASSIVE loan to go to college, get a medical treatment, start/invest in a business, buy a home, car, or even a TV. The political pressure to make lending easier is strong in the swamp. Corporations lobby for easy lending so they can make more “investments,” i.e. often stock-buy backs to further drive up their stock price, and so that their customers will also be able to afford more of their products. And the general public likes easy lending too because then they can get that thing they were told they needed NOW and therefore in-debt themselves further into the future. And what inevitably happens with easy lending? Prices go up and up and UP! A buyer is no longer limited by his bank account, but by his appetite for debt! We were taught to blame the big banks for the 2008 financial crash, in part, because academia is one of the greatest beneficiaries of easy lending. But the truth is that the 2008 crash occurred because in the 90s politicians effectively forced big banks to give home mortgages to people who couldn’t afford it. Short-term this meant more poor people could buy their “own” home, i.e. the American Dream. But long-term it caused a massive housing bubble that the banks knew would eventually pop. If the housing market was a genuine free market ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8XVuMUdkec
