    I have a Tri-Fuel 7500 watt generator with a 1000 gallon propane tank to feed it.

    You recall that China sent people that had been exposed and likely infected with the chinese virus on flights to the West and especially to the US. This was not an accident but a deliberate act of war. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/feb/9/millions-left-wuhan-china-coronavirus-quarantine/

    As bad as "the bomb" was for the Japanese, they have made out well in their relations with the US since WW2 and so have we.

    It isn't even difficult. My secondary backup is NAS that I detach from the network after every backup. The only way to hack it is to be in the same room with it. Any fool can do it.

    It most certainly has worked in the places where it is practiced properly.

    That's an admission that it ain't working. Probably another huge data breech today and everyday.

    Mostly they are autocracies, strong man rule like Xi and Putin.

    Like what Trump wants to be.

    Not so. For Trump there's much more behind than ahead, just like for me, and while Trump is going to cross that river, just like I will, it won't be the Rubicon.

    A man who wants to be dictator has to start young, like Castro.

    There's a reason people voluntarily pay "extortion" money to Lifelock to protect them. The system does not work. The government does nothing for people who are victims.

    What "system" are you referring to, there are billions of systems out there. To infer that they are all compromised is obtuse.

    Not much of a trading partner, are they? Time to take our business elsewhere.

    DON’T TRUST CHINA, CHINA IS ASHOLE: China develops weapons to fry US electric grid, eyes high-tech ‘Pearl Harbor’ attack.

    Pearl Harbor destroyed the Japanese Empire.

    China contemplating an EMP "Pearl Harbor" attack on the US.

    Because this would not lead to war with them, including a US nuclear response.

    Japan's mistake is that they weren't prepared to follow up with an attack on mainland USA, China won't be that dumb.

    Back then, we had to deliver the bombs by plane. Now, they are just one button push away. I don't think they will be starting any wars. If anything, it will be another cold war and they will lose their best customer.

    Considering that Trump has most of the 14 traits of fascism, you're gonna need a miracle.

    You are still lacking divine intervention.

    If you want to argue he doesn't, go for it. I can always use a good laugh.

    As I said: You cannot demonstrate your claim to be true,.
    Thanks for the proof.
