At Sunday's White House coronavirus task force briefing, CBS News White House correspondent Weijia Jiang asked President Trump why he didn't "warn" people that the virus was spreading while he was holding MAGA rallies.
WEIJIA JIANG, CBS NEWS: Since you shared with us something else that you saw on TV today. I have a question about something you said Thursday. You said you were angry because information about the virus should have been told to us earlier and a lot sooner. "People knew it was coming and people did not want to talk about it."Many Americans are saying the exact same thing about you, that you should have warned them the virus was spreading like wildfire through the month of February instead of holding rallies with thousands of people. Why did you wait so long to warn them and why did you not have social distancing until March 16th?
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Who are you with?
JIANG: I'm Weijia Jiang with CBS News.
TRUMP: So if you look at what I did in terms of cutting off or banning China from coming in.
JIANG: Chinese nationals. By the way, a lot of Americans are also nationals of China.
TRUMP: Just relax. We cut it off. .....
JIANG: When you issued the ban, the virus was already here.
TRUMP: You know how many people when I issued the ban -- how many cases of virus were in the United States when I issued the ban? Do you know the number?

As if we need more evidence that they (media) are the enemy of this country.
A CCP imbedded reporter.
Expecting CBS News to warn Americans of danger is asking them to be useful.
They can fool all the people some of the time and they can fool some people some of the time but they can never fool me.
Some people ALL the time.

I asked President Trump if he was being selfish for not getting tested and possibly spreading #Coronavirus to others. He said he would “probably” get one.

Pinning this from Mar 13? she has an agenda
What is the function of the CDC lady?
Chinese/Demonrat/Media Collusion
The “C” in CBS stands for China.
CBS never reported from the Wuhan airport about all of the infected boarding to fly to the US?
From any northern Italian airports about the infected flying to NYC?
Aren’t CBS supposed to be on top of the news?
“How long have you been with CBS news?”
Well this lady is famous. Half the country now know she is a running dog of the CHICOMS.
Her entire tweet feed is get trump
I remember when journalists used to try to hide their political bias
Huhhh…??
How do you say d**khead in Chinese?
Like Globalist “Uncle” Walter Cronkite?
It’s evident from the transcript that this “reporter” interrupted President Trump repeatedly. I’d love it if any interruption of the President resulted in immediate physical ejection of the offender, with removal of press credentials on the way out.
