Over 30% of Americans have witnessed someone blaming Asian people for the coronavirus pandemic, a new survey says.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee sent a memo directing campaigns this month to blame China when asked about failures in the Trump administration's response to the pandemic."Don't defend Trump, other than the China Travel Ban — attack China," says the memo, firstPresident Donald Trump and other Republican politicians have repeatedly referred to COVID-19 as the"Chinese virus.

Jeung said that it was fair game to criticize foreign governments for their responses to the pandemic but that Americans should also look to the failures of their own government. Politicians have a responsibility to denounce hate and racism, he said. Community spread within the U.S. dwarfs the risk of exposure from outside travel. But the Ipsos/Center for Public Integrity poll results suggest that a minority of people see Asian Americans as disease risks.

NBCAsianAmerica Well that's true as well as false. They shud specifically blame Chinese people. There are many countries in Asia. No other country is responsible for spreading corona other than China. So be specific! Don't b nuts n blame the whole Asia..!

Over 30% ay now how did you come up with that %. Oh that's right ,bullshit

I'm not blaming anyone oh wait, yes I am I'm blaming the stupid white supremacist people that are out here protesting to open up to infect other people and spreading racism. and continuing to support a corrupt and racist Evil Administration. That's who I'm blaming in the U.S.

Stupid article. We blame the Chine Communist Party and WHO for lying and suppressing info. Now see what percentage blanes whites for everything.

😢

I think this is the work of AOS

You mean the Chinese Communist Party?

Bogus for no scientific reason.

Thank 45 for spreading hate. He does it every day.

TrumpetsAndRacist

THANKS TRUMP for the ENCOURAGEMENT....for keeping the country DIVIDED instead of UNITED beingSarcastic

I wouldn't blame the people its the Chinese government

Asian people like ..... CHINA!? Ya think?!

That must be the 30% that watch NBC

Didn’t trump shout from his bully pulpit for days calling covid-19 the Chinese virus Hold him accountable

I havent seen anyone blame asian people, I've seen alot of people blame the Chinese government for not being more forthcoming about the disease when it first began to spread though. Not all Asians are members of the Chinese Government or Ethnic Chinese... so who's racist?

The is the Fault of are President and his Racist admin..POTUS

I have only read about it, those people should be jailed and tried for hate crimes because they're too stupid to understand anything else.

Believe in your heart wats right n what's wrong stop listening to others making each other scared n believing it

china is to blame for the virus, no one else

They can blame Asians all they want the fact is the least infected race are Asians - more infected white people and black people than any other race right now. But that's besides the point. Blaming instead of smart decisions is what led us to over 1m cases.

The left media polls

The left media polls

Oh well

And that survey is:

Easy: becaue it came from China.

If they witness it then they weren’t social distancing shameful

you can only expect that when realDonaldTrump flamed the blame along with his cronies to deflect his incompetence and lies. his dumb supporters will listen and believe everything he says.

Racism is a worse virus than Covid19. Just saying. And there is no cure for it.

It is the Communist Party who is to blamed, not the people.

And Trump s public messages magnifies it

It’s only going to get worse

They were traveling here and abroad knowing that this virus is very bad!

I blame the USA government and the lies

More NBC horse manure...

WHO CARES?

You know ... most normal people if asked “do you blame the Chinese Government or the People of China?” — Would answer the Government. All depends how you ask the question.

I call more fake news bullshit.

The media trying to divide us again 😡

Beside blame blame blame I really don’t know what else Americans can do. Poor things

Fake news!!

And yet it's still the Chinese Flu,,, 🤷

Retweet! Retweet! Retweet! LetYourVoicesBeHeard Where is the MeToo movement? Why did they Abandon TaraReade. Why is JoeBiden getting a free pass. Why aren't Democrats & MSM asking the hard questions? Hypocrites! Hypocrites! Hypocrites! TheyHateWomen

Idiots

Oh stop it ! Shame on you NBC!

But, there is no such thing as 'asian' ppl? So how can there be blaming of such so-called ppl? They don't exist!

My question is how are they witnessing this? Are they not staying home?

I haven’t heard one person blame the people. Just the Govt, of China. Mainly, the leader.

Well look at the person leading the rants. Same thing happens to Hispanics. Hell I believe we had some mass shootings due to our race. The blame starts w/China. S*?t rolls downhill if people don't take action which Trump almighty did not.

If, reportedly, 75% of Americans are on lockdown, how do 30% witness bias against Asians? Whatever the reason, I don’t understand bias against anyone over a problem people in America have no culpability.

And the Chinese are blaming Africans for spreading the virus in return.

Funny. Stay at home orders... How could this even be mathematically possible. Only place I keep seeing it is on the ' news'

Which is why Trumps racism and xenophobia plays so well with his base

Because it started in China by the murderous CCP Dictatorship

Bad reporting by NBC again! Everyone knows it came from China and the fault lies with an abusive Chinese government! Come on NBC! Do a better job and stop playing the simplistic racism card! Stop the left wing madness please!

Blame the Chinese Govt, not the people 🤷‍♂️ your poll is probably bullshit though..

This is such a horribly worded survey. When you China does not mean chinese people. This is problem of getting a bunch of racists to conduct surveys.

MAGA: Many Asians Getting Assaulted

It’s because the virus came from China, and everyone knows that they have blood on their hands. But let’s not forget about good old bill gates.

It might have come from China playing around with viruses but the American people in general did not help, Going on trips on March all over I go to the store 75% of people dont wear masks or anything. We cant put this on one person or one culture,

Well let’s get this straight- it came straight outta wuhan and that’s ALL ASIAN ppl that started this panic so could Americans be RIGHT? Duh YES

How many in the press have been blaming Donald Trump?

no sane person would blame the chinese people. The government of china however knows more than they are reporting.

This likely correlates with the spike in calls to poison control centers about ingesting bleach or other disinfectant chemicals.

America is racist and its easier to blame China, the real blame is POTUS45 who failed to respond.

The headline itself is misleading. 30% percent of the US population or 30% of 100 people surveyed? Fake polls.

The same way they have been blaming Africans and mistreating them.

Does blaming Xi Jinping count?

Its the American mentality of racism always seeking ways to justify their racism, always seeking out those they can release their hateful ideology on. Such a willfully ignorant nation.

Chinese only Chinise

Asian people? No just China.

The Chinese government released Corona on the world. Xi deserves a major backlash.

Why was BarrInvestigation canceled 3/31/20 Is Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) named after Attorney General Barr?

How’d they do that in a quarantine?

The CCP is not “Asian people” All this episode does is expose US medias CCP interference

I blame the Chinese Government and big business for this pandemic...are they asian?

No more Chinese buffet!

So really like 3%

= destroyamerica

quit spreading hate and lies fake news. ridiculous

太可怕了

I was not born in the USA but have called it home for over 40 years. Just because I'm Asian I have to be treated less than white America or even black America? We are ALL Americans and we're ALL in this together. Please stop being ignorant.

Should be 100% because Asians - Chinese started the virus - was nbc born under a rock?

In my entire life..I have never been polled... That's why I don't believe them

Thanks Chinese Communist Party's cover up, denial, misinformation & propaganda. The world is misled to think Asians are brainwashed partisan WuMao. No, we don't support CCP. People of Hong Kong, Taiwan & Thailand have formed MilkTeaAlliance to counter Chinese propaganda

Oh whatever NBC. Is this another of your fake inter office facebook polls?

And 110% has witnessed the left media act like whine bags.

WeAreAllInThisTogether COVID19 COVID COVIDー19

Since when is a survey proof of anything. 🙄 NBC is responsible for doing tremendous damage to this country by reporting false news with divisive results.

What percent have seen someone blame white folk for all the world's problems?

And what about that?

Hogwash

It came from China

Not Asian people. The Chinese government is to blame. I haven’t seen anyone blaming an Asian person but have heard plenty of Americans wanting answers from the Chinese government. Get the story straight.

Why not, or : fake news like Fat Trump says...?

Should we blamed USA Then

Trump knew this pandemic was coming. He knew for two months. After he dismantled what little we all had of health insurance for all. After her dismantled the pandemic task for two years ago. Trump was waiting for this to happen. Why? Ask yourselves why.

My racist ass parents said they won't eat at a Chinese restaurant again. I tried to get them to explain how a Chinese restaurant is less sanitary than any other restaurant, they said employees live in crowded conditions. I said so do college students at Chili's w no sick leave 🤦

NBC/ Universal Comcast will never criticize Communist China too much entertainment revenue would be lost.Instead they direct all criticism towards President Trump essentially acting as Communist proxies .

Ive not seen this yet in the three towns i work at yet....being part Asian American and all.

The fish rots from the head: Trump keeps talking about Pelosi & Chinatown bc he believes this racist claptrap. The same way he thought Obama was born in Kenya & an American judge of Latinx descent couldn't be impartial—Trump believes all ppl of Asian descent are COVID-vectors.

With all the people (not) on the streets? BS

What is the percentage of people who blame Trump for covid-19?

well it did come from China

Typical Republicans and their blame game tactics. Now you see why I wish 99.9% of them Lazy Welfare/SSI Government Dependent Bums just humanly combust 💯 FACTS

Asians are of different nationalities and only the Chinese are the ones who started the Corona virus.

Racial discrimination in the United States is still very common

Should blame Chinese Communist Party, not all Asian people.

People can honestly be the cruelest! 💔

I’m confused it’s the WuhanVirusMadeInChina! 🤷🏽‍♀️

The blame lies with the CCP, not the people of China. The CCP needs to pay and pay dearly for what they’ve done to the world.

What were they doing out?

2 Minutes Brownie in a MUG SUBSCRIBE my channel

I haven't. Only politicians blaming China.

Well it came from CHINA right

this is unfair for them...

So 30% of Americans are racist! Sarcasm 😂😂😂😂

And....

Wrong to blame a race, but we should blame the country of China for hiding that it was highly contagious.

Complete garbage as usual from the LYING CORRUPT LIBERAL MEDIA.

How tragic!

The other 70% aren’t on twitter

Over 50% blame President Trump. He didn't start it, and he didn't have it. BUT He did slow that fucker down. Millions would have died

Do you count people saying that China is to blame ? Because that is a fact.

Smh

Blaming china is racist

I think they blame China...

Well that's stupid.

unfair for them...

Which is probably wrong..!!
