Pardon my paranoia, but I heard a couple days who about this big honkin' Russian transport

plane that delivered tons of PPE's sent by Don's pal, Vlad. Does anyone know if these supplies were tested for contamination with Covid 19 or ???

Somehow, these "gifts" to the American people from Vlad and Donald made "smallpox blankets" flash into my fevered mind. Oh, but "He'd never do that!", right?

That was my 1st thought. There was some reporting that dump admin paid for 1/2 the supplies & the other 1/2 was donated, but the article was quoting russian media sources, I believe.

Also read that one of the Russian manufacturers of that equipment os one who is on sanction list with US.

Worst case, I think is contaminated equipment.

Best case is dump continuing to attemp to legitimize putin on the world stage & get the sanctions lifted.

For States to desperately bid against each other and other countries. When the bidding doesn't yield enough money, Jared orders the Federal Government to step in with a winning bid to generate a bigger cut for the Trump family, along with his personal cut.

After all, Trump Family businesses must survive first in this pandemic and humanitarian crisis. Without them, their is no United States of America. USA! USA! USA!

Does anyone not believe that is happening for all supplies of the U.S. Government?
