Prominent allies of President Donald Trump blamed his positive COVID-19 diagnosis on Thursday on the Chinese government, accusing Beijing of literally infecting the president with the virus in what was effectively an attack on the U.S. commander-in-chief.
“The Chinese Communist Party has biologically attacked our President,” declared Blair Brandt, a top Trump campaign fundraiser and an adviser to Lara Trump, the president’s daughter-in-law. “China must be held accountable,” he added. “From Wuhan to the White House, China must pay for what it’s done.”
While she stopped short of accusing China of biological warfare, Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) also pinned blame for the president’s diagnosis on the Chinese government and demanded retaliatory measures. “Remember: China gave this virus to our President @realDonaldTrump and First Lady @FLOTUS,” Loeffler wrote on Twitter on Friday morning. “WE MUST HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE.”
The coronavirus is widely believed to have originated in Wuhan, China, and Trump has sought to deflect criticism of the U.S. government’s response to the virus by pinning blame on Beijing. The Trump administration has also sought to play up Chinese efforts to damage Trump in next month’s election, efforts that some prominent Trump allies quickly linked to his Thursday diagnosis.
“Is it fair to make the assessment that China has now officially interfered with our election?” tweeted Rep. Mark Walker (R-NC).
《The Daily beast》最新报道,川普的坚定盟友们一致认为总统及第一夫人于周四被确诊为携带中共病毒呈阳性反应的事件是中共(China Communist Party or CCP)发起的一次有效的针对美国国家元首的攻击。
白宫在周五总统宣布结果为阳性后,面临着巨大的CCP病毒威胁,这是在白宫历史上从未有过的骚动局面,犹如现实版的《White House Fallen》。只不过这场袭击不是炸弹或者枪击,而是准生物武器 – CCP病毒。美国总统川普周五(10月2日)下午6点20分左右戴着口罩自己走出白宫,登上停在南草坪的直升机。他将被送往马里兰州的沃尔特里德国家军事医学中心。即使这场世纪大瘟疫已经燃烧到了白宫家门口,但川普政府还未对现有抗击疫情的政策做出任何改变,依然是建议(不强制)戴口罩,商业活动继续照旧。
