"The world is now suffering as a result of the misfeasance of the Chinese government," Trump said., and threatened to make the freeze permanent if the organization did not enact "major substantive reforms." The U.S. had been the top contributor to the agency to the tune of approximately $450 million a year. China meanwhile pays approximately $50 million a year -- although Beijing had recently announced a $2 billion injection of funds.
The U.S. has raised concerns about WHO officials' praise of Chinese "transparency," its ignoring of warnings about the virus from Taiwan, and its repetition of Chinese claims that COVID-19 could not be spread from person-to-person. Trump has also pointed to opposition from WHO officials to his decision to place a travel ban on China in the initial days of the crisis.
Targeting the Chinese directly, Trump said he will issue a proclamation to secure university research and to "suspend the entry of certain foreign nationals from China who we have identified as a potential security risk." Trump also accused China of "smothering" freedom in Hong Kong with its newly enacted national security law that would stifle opposition and criminalize anti-government movements such as the pro-democracy demonstrations seen in the territory in recent years.
Donald Trump has proven, beyond reasonable doubt, that the United States of America is no longer viable as a 'Union'.
Dumb.
WHO colluded with China.
Meanwhile. Trump idiot is quiet on the riots except for tweets.
Perfect. This ranks right up there with dismantling the pandemic team. TrumpMeltdown 100kDeadAmericans
Get President Trump back on today at 5, Parino's voice is worse than nails on chalk board.
Chuck Schumer: 'President Trump's Rose Garden event just now was pathetic. It perfectly encapsulates his inability to lead when our nation needs it most. The only question is whether President Trump is afraid to lead or just doesn't know how.'
That’s like abolishing the navy after Pearl Harbor.
It has become a Banana Republic.
China lied and continue to lie emboldened by WHO. China must be held in to account. The world must censor China. Believe China in your own peril. China is a virus to themselves and to the world. China is a threat to world peace.
U.S. terminating relationship with Trump. Very, very soon. Believe me. It’ll be great, the best. After Trump, we will Make America Great Again. RepublicansAgainstTrump

Trump is more interested in deflecting criticism away from himself than he is in serving the interests of our Country.

realDonaldTrump again shows impeccable timing.Such a smart move in the middle of a Pandemic! Once again he has ceded world leadership to others,like when he abandoned S.Korea,or the Kurds,or let Russia and Iran dominate South America,and the Saudis get away with murder in Yemen.
MikeEmanuelFox Now it's time for Dr. Fauci, a great friend of W.H.O., to retire and allow a less political member of the younger generation to assume status of USA's Viral Expert.
