On US President Trump’s campaign rally in Tulsa on Saturday (20 June), he renamed COVID-19 (covid, in short) “kung flu". White House spokesman McKenzie reiterated on 22 June that Trump just wanted to emphasize the source of covid is China.
At Saturday's rally, Trump partly derived the words "kung flu" from "kung fu" as they appear homophonic, to refer to covid, implying that the disease originated in China, but was used again by some leftist media to compose "racist" articles.
White House spokesman Kayleigh McEanny said, "What the president did was point out the fact that the virus (SARS-CoV-2) originated in China. It was fair to point out because the CCP’s absurd attempt to tamper with history and ridiculously depended on the American military. That's what the CCP wants to do. The president wants to say, no, the CCP (China), I want to add this virus to the source. He (in this way) is to connect it (the virus) to its source."
At the same time, McEanny once again emphasized the president's position on protecting the American and global Asian communities.
White House spokesman McEanny said,"The President has made it very clear that it is very important for us to fully protect the Asian communities in the United States and around the world. They are amazing people. No matter in the way or the way, the spread of the virus is not their fault. , They are working closely with us to get rid of the virus, and we will win together, which is very important. So this matter has nothing to do with the Asian Americans cherished and valued by the president, citizens of this great country, but the complaint against the CCP, because The CCP let the virus spread here."
McEanny said that Trump never regretted pushing the responsibility back to the Chinese Communist Party, because the Chinese Communist Party needs to be responsible for the global epidemic caused by it, and even less so when the Chinese Communist Party blamed the US military, it stood firm to safeguard the US military's reputation.
