Communist Chinese State-Controlled Journalist Mocks President Trump's Coronavirus Test Results

As President Donald Trump deals with reaction from news that he and First Lady Melania Trump — along with top aide Hope Hicks — have tested positive for Coronavirus, Chinese state-run media had the gall to chime in on the unfortunate news.

According to Daily Mail, the editor-in-chief of the Global Time, Hu Xijin, posted a disgusting, tweet on Friday morning that mocked the president and the news of his diagnosis, suggesting that because the president “downplayed” the virus, that he and the first lady now have to “pay the price.”

“President Trump and the first lady have paid the price for his gamble to play down the COVID-19. The news shows the severity of the US’ pandemic situation,” Hu added. “It will impose a negative impact on the image of Trump and the US, and may also negatively affect his reelection.”

Xijin’s nasty tweet has been since deleted.

Blowback from his Communist thoughts on the president’s condition must have been swift, as on Friday morning, he retweeted a message of well wishes from Chinese Government Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Hua Chunying.

Xijin, who is well known to be one of China’s most outspoken critics of the Trump administration, was quick to mock the president over the news of his positive Coronavirus test, but failed to take any responsibility for his country’s role in spread the deadly virus around the world.

As one of many examples of his severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, Xijin tweeted on Monday that, based on information he’s learned — citing no sources whatsoever — he believed the Trump administration is planning a MQ-9 Reaper drone attack in the South China Sea in an effort to boost his re-election campaign.

That’s the kind of crazy we’re dealing with here.

It’s no secret that Coronavirus likely originated in Wuhan and allowed to spiral out of control to a level where it couldn’t be contained because the Communist Chinese government didn’t want the black eye of taking responsibility, but many experts have indicated that Covid-19 is, without a doubt, a Chinese import.

There’s reason why President Trump, in the very earliest days of the pandemic scare, essentially sealed the U.S. border from incoming Chinese flights. He knew he’d be slammed, at least initially, by the left and the liberal mainstream media as a “bigot” and a “racist” for taking such drastic actions, but he did it anyway, knowing that he would be on the right side of history.

Nobody in the Chinese, state-run media or their government has any ground to stand on as far as mocking or criticizing the president for testing positive for Coronavirus, given their role in recklessly spreading the novel virus around the world.
