Don't let China escape blame for the pandemic

With China finally falling under more scrutiny for its treatment of Uighur Muslims and the subjugation of Hong Kong, it’s important that the United States speaks with a unified voice. This applies to another grievance that seems to have fallen by the wayside — how China is responsible for the global coronavirus pandemic.

The latest offender is House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi, who called the coronavirus the “Trump virus.” Pelosi has justifiably slammed President Trump in the past for prioritizing a trade deal with China over their human rights issues, but she’s willing to use the coronavirus to hit Trump instead of focus on the real issue at hand.
