Pelosi refers to coronavirus as the 'Trump virus'
https://thehill.com/homenews/house/508449-pelosi-refers-to-coronavirus-as-the-trump-virusSpeaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) dubbed the coronavirus the “Trump virus” on Tuesday evening, ratcheting up her rhetoric over President Trump’s handling of the pandemic.
“Well, I think with the president's comments today, he recognized the mistakes he has made by now embracing mask-wearing and the recognition this is not a hoax, it is a pandemic that has gotten worse before it will get better because of his inaction," Pelosi said on CNN's "The Situation Room."
"And, in fact, clearly, it is the Trump virus,” Pelosi added.
Typical of Nancy Pelosi. Many COVID-19 are in leftist areas like New York City, Los Angeles, Detroit, and Chicago.
The criticism, which centers around Trump’s early reluctance to wear a mask and barbs from some White House aides directed at health officials like Anthony Fauci, has been amplified amid a spike in coronavirus cases across the country, particularly in the South and West.
“We’re approaching four million – we’re approaching four million people infected – people affected by this – infected by it, and a large number, like 140,000, who have passed away. If it's important to wear a mask now, it would have been important to wear it in March instead of telling us that by April we would all be going to church together. I wish that were the case, but he had no scientific basis for that,” Pelosi said.
“And so, if they don’t return to science and governance – and that’s a way that we can overcome this. We have hope and prayers for a vaccine. God-willing that will be soon. But it is still months away and people will die. So, let's hope that the president comes closer to embracing the reality of this pandemic, this Trump virus.”
