Sunday evening, on a townhall event on Fox News, President Trump theorized that China might have let the coronavirus affect the rest of the world because they knew it would cripple their own economy and they didn’t want to suffer alone. He stated, “They said, ‘Hey look, this is going to have a huge impact on China and we might as well let the rest of the world,’ because the last people they want — We’ve had a great year against China prior to the virus coming.”
Fox News’ Martha MacCallum triggered Trump’s response by asking, “Is there any suggestion that it was anything nefarious or that it was just a mistake?”
