Conservative, Inc. Is Suddenly Talking Tough About China After Condemning Trump For Taking Real Action Against China

China’s awful behavior - be it trade, human rights, virology, etc – is becoming so indefensible that even Principled Free Traders™ are suddenly rushing to condemn China. You’ll note that they are not suggesting that we do something that would really hurt China, such as cutting off imports of their goods or repatriating American jobs that were sent to China. No, not that. It is a high principle of “true conservatives” that denying American consumers the fruits of Uyghur slave labor is bad economic policy. And if Apple, Coca-Cola and Nike all agree that we mustn’t interfere with how China utilizes its slave labor resources, who are we to condemn it.

Central to Conservative, Inc’s charade is condemning Trump’s tariffs due to “principles” while also pretending they’re not actually pom-pom waving supporters of China’s authoritarian government. They want everyone to believe that Principled Free Traders™ could someday consider punitive action against bad actors such as China, but not if it’s in response to unfair trade. So, until America-first conservatives concede that exporting every possible American job is a worthwhile objective, then Conservative, Inc. will continue to pursue unilateral trade surrender to China. You see, their solemn principles demand that they put integrity about trade policy ahead of slavery and virological mass murder.

Feel free not to click on the links below, since these are all National Review links, but here are some of the endless NR posts that condemned Trump for prioritizing American jobs and for imposing tariffs on China.

Tariffs Beget Tariffs (June 2018)
National Review’s Jibran Khan condemned Trump for tariffs, and made the peculiar argument that while American tariffs on Chinese goods primarily hurt Americans, Chinese retaliatory tariffs on American goods primarily hurt…well…Americans too. No it doesn’t make sense. But when you’re advocating for surrender to a communist regime, it’s not going to make sense.

Free Trade Already Puts America First (June 2018)
National Review’s David Harsanyi condemned Trump’s tariffs and explained that unilaterally surrendering to China on trade is patriotic and pro-American.

China Trade Has Been A Bust (March 2018)
National Review’s Rich Lowry condemned Trump’s tariffs and instead proposed that the US engage the WTO and “influence multi-lateral agreements” and “muster an alliance” and “forge bilateral agreements,” etc. In other words, Mr. Lowry proposed failure theater while surrendering to China.

The Unmade Case Against China (July 2019)
National Review’s Michael Brendan Dougherty condemned Trump’s tariffs and proposed instead that Trump “use the bully pulpit” against China rather than take any actual action.

Out Of Order (Aug 2019)
‘The Editors’ at National Review condemned Trump’s tariffs, criticizing him for employing tariffs rather than “cooperating with others” or “prioritizing free trade” or talking to the WTO.

So, Principled Free Traders™ now have a problem. They love the Chinese dictatorship. They love the Chinese model of government. They feel that China’s slave labor can be justified if it can save American consumers even one penny on a purchase. And they especially love it when an American business lays off a deplorable and sends his job to China. But with the Wuhan virus adding to the yuck factor of China’s human rights record, China is toxic right now in the public’s mind.

So what’s a Principled Free Trader™ who’s been licking Xi Jinping’s shoes supposed to do? National Review’s Jim Geraghty has suddenly started churning out a flood of “tough on China” columns, trying to save face by pointing out that he has never specifically called the lab leak hypothesis a conspiracy theory. Presumably, Geraghty hopes he won’t be held accountable like all his beltway media allies who did call it a conspiracy theory, and who aggressively sought to censor those who expressed that forbidden opinion.

But fake tough talk aside, Geraghty and the rest of the National Review staff still refuse to propose any actions that would actually cause China economic discomfort.

Here are some recent CYA articles from National Review:

There Are No Issues on Which China Can Be Considered an Ally (Isaac Schorr – April 2021)

Let me summarize in my own words the bold recommendation in this article. “Do absolutely nothing, especially regarding trade with China.” And here is some of the actual NR tough talk:

It is incumbent upon the president and his diplomatic corps to identify these spheres — the environment, coronavirus, sports, etc. — as battlegrounds, and engage on them.

China’s Moral Disfigurement (Perry Link – May 2021)

Again, let me summarize in my own words the bold recommendation in this article. “Do absolutely nothing, especially regarding trade with China.” And again, here is some of the actual NR tough talk:

Pundits say that a collapse is highly unlikely anytime soon, and they might be right. I am not predicting a collapse. But if it does come, the pundits will have plenty of material to use in their explanations of why it happened.

I could do this all day, and it’s not just National Review. The Principled Free Traders™ throughout Conservative, Inc. are suddenly embarrassed that they have been exposed as de facto allies of the Chinese communist government. So, these faux-conservatives are now pretending to condemn China while furiously trying to ensure that nothing is actually done that would cause economic harm to China or its leadership.

3 They can "condemn" China now, knowing that it's all kabuki-- Xiden is OWNED by China, and he will do everything he can to surrender to them. When Trump was in, he was about taking action on behalf of the US, which was not cool with their Chinese masters.

So condemnation is safe now, because nothing will be done and they can use it for GOPe fundraising.

Pretenteding Biden will do anything other than exactly what CCP wants him to do is embarrassing naive -- insulting, really.

63 If you asked someone in say 2001 what a reasonable response to China manipulating trade, taking control of the American entertainment industry, stealing an election for their puppet, and unleashing a virus on the country might be, I rather doubt "tariffs are a bridge too far" would be the answer.

By earnest hope is that DeWine gets primaried OUT as governor, and somebody better appears (and that is happening right now). Glad that useless towering jelly roll Portman is retiring, but who knows who we will get and who will be nominated.

She certainly did. Groucho, in the book The Marx Brothers Scrapbook, says that he and the other brothers used to play practical jokes on her all the time, even once stripping her nude in the middle of a crowded train.

BTW, in the Scrapbook, Groucho comes off as a foul-mouthed crank with rarely a good word for anybody. Apparently he was pretty much a misanthropist in real life; as Harpo's wife put it, "Don't ever let Groucho see a moment of weakness, or he will destroy you."

That's what I've always hated about the Libertarians. They write a lot about things that could never possibly come to pass, and then walk away like they've done something noble, but we're beyond help.
Now I realize Conservative, Inc is the same thing. The only difference is, it's Conservative, Inc that makes sure none of their own ideas actually get put into practice.

FWIW, they've just increased the number of children allowed to 3 -- no idea if that can significantly make up for years of the one child policy.

I like to think they go straight home onto social media and start REEE-ing about how they were *thought-raped by a Trumper MAGAT* and now they are *literally shaking!"

My aunt was laughing so hard she put me on speaker and made me say it again so my uncle and cousin could hear it. I told 'em - c'mon over to AoS, that's how we roll all the time!

In other corruption and capture of American institutions news, a third member of the FDA advisory panel has resigned in protest over the recent approval of this new Alzheimer's drug.

You probably read the fawning headlines over this, but no mention of how controversial it is (see all those drug ads on TV -- media will never make Pharma mad and risk all that advertising cash).

The tl;dr version is this drug doesn't really work, but they approved it anyway. Every member of the advisory committee voted against it. But they approved it anyway.

227 Dave in Fla, excellent factual analysis in laying out the truth of what happened last "election".
I watched election night when each individual precinct count was added in those crooked voting counties.
In each individual precinct the candidates get about the same percentage of votes in the morning in the afternoon in the evening. That was true up until the late night steal.
Then those blue precincts went 99% Biden. It was obvious the steel was happening. These are official vote counting statistics, Not some writer's opinion.
Dave sticking to facts like you do is refreshing and instructive please keep it up.
I am glad you are back, my friend.

You don't see it as much as you used to. Maybe started with Clinton and wasn't really revived by Obama.

You can still run into some real rabid left winger who'll complain about it.

You're not the only one. It creeps me out ... and I too was wondering if Ace knew something that I didn't.

I suppose the demographic here skews slightly older than 29 ...

We are at the, tell me pretty little lies, phase of the plandemic.

I took some work boots in to get resoled, the cobbler was smoking a cig on the front stoop of the store, he saw me coming with the boots, as we went into the store he asked me if I was vaccinated, I said, sure, he didn't even blink.

This is all absurd bullshit.

I should have thought of that. Now it's even more depressing, contemplating the waste of human labor that goes into coping with govt edicts. Counting plastic toy tomahawks, using more labor than the damn things are worth.

It's disconcerting to find a new breakfast place with a hawt waitress that you've been going to for a couple of months, and then this week they decide "fuckit, we're done with the mask bullshit", only to find out that you'd prefer it if she'd kept wearing the mask...

284 Now we have to listen to the British buffoon, Boris Johnson. The world is really being governed by idiots, and we can all see it in slow motion.

When is this "love" fest gonna be over?

Boris wants something from Biden. The UK is effectively a vassal state of the US now, so he's going to suck up to whoever the president is.
Posted by: JoeF. at June 11, 2021 04:10 PM (mR6Gs)

He wants a trade deal with the US. Trump would have given one, Biden is saying that the UK should bend the knee to the EU. Well, one group of his handlers.

Until Boris finds out he can't get a US deal he will play nice and say all the right things.

Wifey and I have been prepping for about a year now (it ain't cheap, folks). Have learned a heck of a lot, and still feel about 90% unprepared ... it's astonishing how dependent we are on virtually everything and how much knowledge and wisdom of our ancestors has been lost.

I highly recommend the book Civil Defense Manual ($100) by Jack Lawson (pseudonym of us former special operator). Warning: it will likely give you nightmares for a while ...

290 The differences between the American Marxist-Maoist party and the Sell Out The USA Party are not about substance but about perspective.

The AMMP want to flood the country with a compliant population that will vote for them forever and set up fascist authoritarian state that picks the corporate winners. Remarkably this looks a lot like China who will then become its closest ally.

The SOTUP want to flood the country with a compliant population that will reward its corporate masters by working for ever lower wages while simultaneously shipping our economic base to places like China because of "muh free trade principles." The SOTUP will then be content to the loyal opposition to the totalitarian AMMP.

In between all this you can kiss the Constitutional Republic goodbye. One should also keep in mind that the current cancel culture are the practice rounds for dealing with the fictional white supremacy problem properly and permanently.

Time for the South to rise again but this time as the last bastion of American exceptionalism. My brain cells explode daily anymore.
