Tucker Carlson on The Threat From China

Some bracing observations on the threat the Wuhan coronavirus poses, and the even bigger threat outsourcing our manufacturing to China poses to the United States:

“While the rest of us were arguing about sexism and transgendered bathrooms, China took control of the healthcare system.”

“As of tonight, more than 95% of the antibiotics in America are manufactured in communist China.”

Parts of this are slightly overstated. There are manufacturing industries that America still dominates (semiconductor manufacturing equipment among them), but Carson is correct in that China’s control of large portions of our essential supply chain represents a serious strategic threat.
