At this point it’s indisputable that the Chinese have lied throughout the period of this Wuhan coronavirus pandemic and those lies helped spread it to the rest of the world.
All Americans, indeed all the world should be concerned and upset by that, given the havoc that that has caused to millions all over the world. The damage to our own country is at this point is incalculable.
But Democrats are not focused upon defending Americans from the Chinese communist government or seeking to hold them accoutable for how much they have damaged us.
They’re solely concentrated on trying to blame President Donald Trump over the pandemic. So much so they appear ready to excuse the fault of China in all of this.
Listen to this unbelievable rant from Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT).
Sen. Chris Murphy:

“The reason that we’re in the crisis that we are today is not because of anything that China did. It’s not because of anything the WHO did. It’s because of what this president did.”
We just reported on how there’s evidence that even the Chinese president Xi Jinping knew it was communicable, not only a little bit, but “severe” and of “epidemic” proportion by Jan. 14. But while they went to high alert in their country, not only didn’t they tell the rest of the world for six days, they let WHO communicate that it was likely not contagious between humans on Jan. 14. In that time, thousands traveled from China all over the world.
In fact, China knew about the virus since December, but China didn’t cut off travel from China to the rest of the world through January. WHO was warned by Taiwan on Dec. 31 it was likely communicable between humans. But WHO didn’t tell the world. WHO even said on Jan. 30 there was no need to make any restrictions on travel. China let hundreds of thousands of people fly from China to the U.S. in the time from when they discovered the virus through January. Even after they knew it was spreading and closed of travel within their own country, they still let people fly out to the United States.
Not only does Murphy ignore all that but he’s still spreading the false story that Trump rejected WHO tests to make up his own test.
The WHO had produced 1.4 million tests by the end of February.
We took none of them, because Trump decided to produce his own test, then botched the development and roll out.
It wasn't the WHO that put us in the position we are today. It was our own President.

This is despicable. WHO never offered the U.S. the tests so we never rejected them. It is the practice of the CDC to make its own test, not Trump, that’s how CDC has done it for years, nothing to do with Trump.
Murphy isn’t concerned with doing his duty and defending us, he’s only concerned with attacking the president to help try to get his party back into power.
This clip from @ChrisMurphyCT is nuts.
A United States Senator gaslighting about China’s role in spreading and lying about a pandemic.. so he can attack the President.
What in the world? https://t.co/bYypvNYfwf

Incredible timing from @ChrisMurphyCT
These new reports suggest Xi himself was involved in this decision to lie about human to human transmission.

Murphy is also the same guy who had a secret meeting with the Iranian foreign minister in February at a Munich conference.
