he should shut it down till its investigated, no question. an at a minimum he needs to re-adjust what the US pays in, pretty simple math and economics. the US pays in $500 mill, we have 330 million people. china pays in $48 million and has 1.5 billion people, yea, thats smart on behalf of the US
Same horn y'all are always blowin' about the media. You don't like the message so they have to be up to something.
Trump hates the WHO because they criticize his handling of this virus - which they warned the world about in early January. Part of Trump's complaint is that the WHO covered up the virus...which is exactly what he tried to do until, what, mid March? WHO tells trump 2 months ahead of time about this, but the WHO was covering it up? WFT over. It doesn't take a rocket surgeon to figure that one out.
So just like flu , this will come back in colder months ?

Who are you trying to fool? Any reasonable person knows the WHO is terribly corrupt and inept. They exist for circumstances like we have now and they FAILED miserably. Anyone that has followed this pandemic knows that. The director (Tedros) was a terrorist while in Ethiopia and has covered up multiple epidemics. He covered this one up for Xi until Xi was ready to admit covid-19. Trump was already taking steps to combat covid-19 less than 30 days from when the world first knew of the coronavirus. Stop believing your leftist media
