Media Claims Trump Called Coronavirus A ‘Hoax.’ Here’s What He Actually Said.

While speaking at a rally in Charleston, South Carolina, President Donald Trump brought up the coronavirus and Democrats’ attempts to politicize the issue.

Trump called those attempts a new hoax, but you wouldn’t know that from media headlines following the event. Here’s what Trump actually said:

Clearly, Trump’s “hoax” comment was referring to Democrats claiming his administration is not doing a good job containing the virus. His first comments are about how Democrats asked how Trump is doing in regard to the Coronavirus, and he mockingly responds as them: “Not good.” He never said the coronavirus itself is a hoax, just Democrats’ claims that the Trump administration is failing to protect the country.


People who don’t take the time to find Trump’s actual comments will only get the media version, which is completely inaccurate, but that seems to be the point.
