Prediction:
This symposium is going to be blamed for a bunch of upcoming “crimes against Asians”, be they real or not.
This is why President Trump never should have, and still should not, call it the China virus. He should say …. the CCP virus. That makes it very clear who is at fault. When Trump explains himself, saying that he does not mean the Chinese people but he means the Chinese communist party, the media just leave that part out of their gotcha clips. If you call it the CCP virus, there is no little clip that they can use against you.
