纠缠于以色列/巴勒斯坦问题对于认识当前美国的政治是只见树叶不见森林，大多数美国人并不在乎/不关心。
The underlying driving force is ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT.
Anti-Establishment 送川普2016年上台，可惜川普毁于新冠应对。对华人更是Kung-Flu，Chinese Virus。
Trump Defends Using ‘Chinese Virus’ Label, Ignoring Growing Criticism
“It’s not racist at all,” the president said. But experts warned that the term could result in xenophobia.
WASHINGTON — President Trump on Wednesday defended his increasingly frequent practice of calling the coronavirus the “Chinese Virus,” ignoring a growing chorus of criticism that it is racist and anti-Chinese.
“It’s not racist at all,” Mr. Trump said, explaining his rationale. “It comes from China, that’s why.”
But the term has angered Chinese officials and a wide range of critics, and China experts say labeling the virus that way will only ratchet up tensions between the two countries, while resulting in the kind of xenophobia that American leaders should discourage. Asian-Americans have reported incidents of racial slurs and physical abuse because of the erroneous perception that China is the cause of the virus.
