BREAKNG: Donald Trump blasts WHO for 'always letting China get the better of the argument

Caption: epa08356059 US President Donald J. Trump speaks during an Easter blessing in the Oval Office of the White House, Washington, DC, USA, 10 April 2020. EPA/Al Drago / POOL Photographer: Al Drago / POOL Provider: EPA Source: The New York Times POOL has hit out at the World Health Organization for ‘always letting China get the better of the argument’ as he hinted at defunding the UN health body.

‘I tell that to President Xi , I tell that to Dr Tedros . We are going to be talking about that next week in great detail. We want to make sure money is properly spent. Why is the US paying $500m a year, why is china paying, this year $42million dollars. The answer always turns out to be in China’s favor.’Trump’s criticism of the WHO began after it criticized his decision to ban the majority of travelers from China from entering the US in February.

The WHO has also been accused of letting China get away with covering up the true scale of the coronavirus outbreak there, with US intelligence sources reporting that the death toll there was over 40,000, rather than the 3,300 deaths officially reported. Trump has crossed swords with WHO Director Dr Tedros Adhanom over his organization’s relationship with China and its President Xi Jinping, right

But Trump has also been accused of using his criticism of the WHO to deflect from his own mishandling of the outbreak. He did not begin to take the pandemic seriously until mid-March, and initially sough to reassure Americans that Covid-19 would just ‘wash through’ the US by itself while causing minimal damage.

There's a picture of him in the dictionary, under 'cock-womble'.

We've had enough products from China. Tedros failed the 21st century.
