A photo of Donald Trump's notes from his Thursday press briefing shows his script had been amended so the term 'corona virus' read 'Chinese virus' - as the president doubled down on his use of the term which critics have branded racist.
During the speech, Trump repeated his argument that China is to blame for the original spread of the virus, which has claimed thousands of lives around the world.
But he has faced criticism for calling it a 'Chinese virus', as the deadly disease is now a global pandemic.

I was seeing an overhead shot when the presser was live, and my first thought was that some presstitute would use that shot to capture whatever was in his notes. Sure enough, they never fail. Scum.
Anyone who eats bats along with other rotting food are definitely inferior to me and that makes me a proud racist. Right now, I look at the death around the globe, the collapse of peoples lives. I hate China. I also believe when this started in China, many of them jumped on planes and went to other countries and spread this around the world.
Trump’s language when he talks about Winnie-the-Flu is a direct response to the Chinese full court press to deflect blame and cast the United States, and Donald Trump in particular, as the bad guy.
Trump is just pushing back. He will continue to push back until they desist.
It is the combined power of the Chinese Communist Party, the US elites, and 99% of the US Media against Donald J. Trump.
No contest. Trump wins.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone so adept at poking dummies with a stick than Donald Trump...
Kung Flu
for this atrocity visited upon the world.
“Yeah they also claimed shutting down flights from China (and Iran) were racist.”
And when he did shut down Red Chicom flights, they criticized him for not doing it fast enough. I loathe, hate and despise them all.
Nice graphic.
I wondered the same...
And there’s no such thing as race. :-)
Why is it racist? It came from there didn’t it?
I guess they’re not going to like the movie idea we’re developing. The working title is “Wuhan Luke”.
Quarantine warden: “What we have heya is... failure to vaccinate!
I noticed that also.
This shot is from the side and behind Trump it appears.
Is a photographer allowed or even in that zone ?
So is it Corona food now?
Agreed on all points.
LOL!
Lol! It’s nice to know, while the average American is worried about food and medical supplies, about feeding our families, the idiotic left is still obsessed with complete and utter nonsense. No brain cells whatsoever in those jerks.
I didn’t think press were allowed back there, but whoever posted it should have their tail in hot water.
Weijia Jiang, a reporter for CBS News, claimed on Tuesday that a White House official referred to coronavirus as the 'Kung Flu' right to her face. Jiang was born in China and raised in West Virginia.
Trump has also used the term in a series of tweets this week.
Reading that, you might come to the conclusion that Trump used the term "Kung Flu" in a series of tweets this week.
This is just another media manufactured lie. Trump did not use the term "Kung Flu" in any tweets this week. Rather, he consistently refers to Winnie-the-Flu as the "Chinese Flu".
They are intentionally confusing the issue. Again. For the thousandth time.
Yes, it looks photoshopped. Different blurriness around the letters. Besides, I do not think he would do that.
The graph is misleading as testing has just ramped up.
