Fayetteville: President Donald Trump has said that the US will never forget what China did to it by failing to prevent the spread of the coronavirus pandemic which he said has devastated America’s economy.
Addressing election rallies on Sunday, Trump said America was on track of its economic revival and was doing well, but it was hit by a virus that came from China.
“We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. And then we got hit by the China plague, which we’re not going to forget,” he said.
“So we closed it up. We closed it up and then we opened it up and we saved. I’ll tell you we saved 2 million lives.But what happened with that shouldn’t have been…we can never forget what China did to us, we can never forget,” Trump said.
Trump has repeatedly blamed China for the coronavirus pandemic which originated in the central Chinese city of Wuhan in December last year and accused Beijing of suppressing the details of the contagion.
The US is the worst-affected country from the virus with over 2,31,000 deaths and over 9 million infections. The pandemic devastated the country’s economy, resulting in the loss of millions of jobs.
Throughout the day, Trump accused his Democratic challenger Joe Biden of being soft on China and alleged that Beijing wants Biden to win the November 3 presidential election.
