First off, China is believed to execute thousands of convicts a year, and drug trafficking is a capital offense, it's been that way for decades. Second, really try to imagine the implications of the shit Trump is saying here. If he had evidence that Biden got the ChiComs to renege on a deal to prevent fentanyl exports then wouldn't that be quite possibly the biggest scandal in the history of right wing media? Wouldn't this have been round-the-clock coverage on Fox News, Breitbart, Newsmax, and all the rest from day one in 2021? How the fuck is something that should be a very, very, very big story in the MAGAverse just casually mentioned in one of these bullshit "Agenda 47" videos?

It's one thing for the fat bastard to lie to his fans about the "rigged election" because that galvanizes them to feel victimized and treat Biden as illegitimate. What the hell kind of similar purpose could this lie ever serve now, at this point going on three years later? The cynical Trump fanboys who admit he's full of shit always say there's some "greater truth" behind the lies. They knew, for example, the "free crack pipes" story was bullshit but they loved it because it was the kind of lie that resonates with low-info voters who don't know any better. So how does this half-assed allegation of an apocalyptic scandal do the same? Is admitting he failed to reveal this "truth" really going to do anything whatsoever to help move the ball down the field against Biden and the Democrats in 2024?
