Donald Trump called COVID-19 the ‘Chinese Virus’

If there’s one thing during this pandemic mayhem that’s keeping Twitter on its toes, it’s US President Donald Trump’s remarks about it.

After fumbling more than once in his handling of the dire issue, the president took to Twitter to share a particular tweet that came across especially racist in a time that could do without such – and of course, Twitter wasn’t having it!

Addressing the Governor of New York Andrew Cuomo, Trump tweeted, “Cuomo wants ‘all states to be treated the same.’ But all states aren’t the same. Some are being hit hard by the Chinese Virus, some are being hit practically not at all.”
