I guess they're all lying about it.
You must know better than those who actually experience it.

true, in most cases, but trump is doing it out of bigotry, and to send a clear dog whistle to his bigoted, xenophobic zombie voters. listen to him say it- with as much venom as possible. why do you lie to try and defend this bitch? did you not read of so many asian americans being insulted even spit on partly spurred on by trump's obvious dog whistle comments? why use derogatory names when covid is scientific and neutral?

Unlike Biden; Trump is rightfully pissed at China's lies ,obfuscations , and for hiding the human to human transmissions.
Beijing Biden is still dithering around with "strategic patience" as his China policy.
hes not going to anything about pinning the virus on China even as China tries to wiggle out of responsibility
we saw how that worked out with Obama with NK (same policy) whereby Obama had to warn Trump NK was his most urgent problem
Meaning China gets a free ride for IP theft/tariffs or closed markets /and responsibility (reparations)for the Wu-Flu

The usurper belatedly claimed to back restrictions on travel from Red China — two months after President Trump put them into place to stem the spread of the coronavirus, which originated in Wuhan, China.
The usurper’s deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield said on ☭NN that the former vice president “supports travel bans that are guided by medical experts, advocated by public health officials, and backed by a full strategy.”
“Science supported this ban, therefore he did, too,” Bedingfield said.
- On Jan. 30, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a global health emergency of international concern.
- The same day, the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for the first time confirmed person-to-person spread of the Wuhan virus and applauded WHO’s decision.
- And also that same day, Trump created the White House Coronavirus Task Force to coordinate U.S. efforts regarding the new disease.
- The next day, on Jan. 31, the president declared coronavirus a U.S. public health emergency and issued a travel ban between the United States and China.
Campaigning in Iowa that day, the usurper criticized Trump’s China travel ban, saying, “This is no time for Donald Trump’s record of hysteria and xenophobia.”
On Feb. 1, the usurper again criticized President Trump for the move.
“We are in the midst of a crisis with the coronavirus. We need to lead the way with science, not Donald Trump’s record of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering. He is the worst possible person to lead our country through a global health emergency,” he claimed.

And, in your estimation, calling it the Wu-Flu or "China Virus" really holds 'em to it?
