There were only excess year over year deaths for three months starting in March and not by huge numbers. This was just a bad flu season that they blew out of proportion.
Either you believe that this was just the flu narrative or you believe the president when he says this was a China engineered flu. You can’t have both.
If it was a bioweapon it was a really shitty one. Although that would make sense for a Chinese product, I think that everyone knows by now this was not a bioweapon. As far as I know Trump has not said anything to that effect, perhaps apart from speculation early on when no one knew shit.
The argument is that China and the WHO covered up the facts about COVID early on, kneecapping the rest of the world's ability to respond to it. China also placed more restrictions on travel within their country than they did on travel out of their country, allowing the virus to spread internationally. No idea if this was some big master plan--probably incompetence or indifference to others--but there should still be consequences.
Still, the biggest consequences should be for the fearmongers trying to say this kills 4% of the population, every city will turn into New York, etc.
