“If this was a genetically engineered virus, they [researchers] would be taking a virus that we know infects humans and causes disease and using the same genetic structure. But we haven’t seen [these features] before, so they’ve evolved naturally, separately in nature. No one has seen them before so they wouldn’t be genetically engineered that way,”

Someone needs to explain to me how a portion of the HIV genome got into the virus without engineering. This splice just happens to be the one that incapacitates the hosts immune system, which is a nice lethal enhancement for a bioweapon.
Well, an article from Forbes magazine already explains this:
TITLE: No, The Wuhan Coronavirus Was Not Genetically Engineered To Put Pieces Of HIV In It
Source for the function of the splice, please?
