President Donald Trump says the name “China virus” is a “far more accurate” word for the coronavirus. “I mean you could almost use a ‘corona’ word but that sounds like a beautiful town in Italy,” the president told a packed campaign rally in North Carolina. “No, this is the China plague or the China virus, that’s where it came from, we have to be accurate.
“We were beating them [China] by leaps and bounds, then we got hit with the plague. “The ink hadn’t even dried on our trade deal with China, wonderful deal, and this happened. “This should have been stopped at China, they should have been able to stop it. They stopped it going into the rest of China but they didn’t stop it from going into Europe, the United States or the rest of the world. “We’re going to find out why too.
