CPAC puts a bullseye on China

Donald Trump loomed large over day one of the 2021 Conservative Political Action Conference.

Elected Republicans wanting to excite the audience littered their speeches with references to the former president. Breakout sessions and high-profile panels featured former officials plucked straight from his administration. Even a gilded Trump statue — adorned in American-flag shorts and the ex-president’s iconic red tie — was wheeled throughout the exhibition hall to the amusement of attendees.

But there was one bit of real policy that underscored just how much influence the 45th president wields over the Republican party even after leaving office.

This year’s CPAC agenda features six panels in which China is a key theme, with titles ranging from “China Subverts America” to “Corporate America Surrendering to China.” The geopolitical challenges posed by China are also likely to come up in the speeches of several 2024 hopefuls — some of whom spoke Friday — using the conference to road-test new messages.

that moved America's manufacturing to China in the first place, so that they could make more money by paying less in taxes, payroll, and to completely skirt environmental laws.
Now they complain.
Their stupidity would by humorous if they weren't so dangerous.
