Very dangerous! CNN spoke out that Trump was "free to play" on the virus issue.

  [Global Network Reporter Wu Yuanchun] On the 6 th, local time, the White House first announced the cancellation of Trump’s plan to visit the Atlanta headquarters of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). After Trump said "I may go again", the White House announced the resumption of the trip. Why are the White House and Trump inconsistent?

  Although Trump’s visit finally took place, an opinion article written by Chris Cillizza, a senior editor of the media, published by CNN)6 on the 6th believed that the White House had previously announced the cancellation of Trump’s trip as "because they didn’t want to distract the CDC", and later according to Trump’s statement, it might be "worried that going to CDC would expose Trump and his White House aides to the virus". These two statements are very different. The article commented that almost every week Trump said something in public, either directly refuting or "digging the corner of his own White House". The article further enumerates the recent differences or refutations between Trump and medical experts and the World Health Organization on the Covid-19 issue, and holds that Trump is always "free to play" and "very dangerous".

  On the morning of Friday (6th) local time, when the outside world questioned why US President Trump canceled his scheduled trip to Atlanta to visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the White House issued a statement saying: "The President will not go to Atlanta today. The CDC has been actively preparing from the beginning, but the president does not want to interfere with the mission of the CDC to protect the health and safety of people and institutions. "

  CNN commented that this makes sense, because the President’s visit needs a lot of logistics and security. Theoretically, this may affect the important work done by the CDC in identifying and controlling novel coronavirus.

  But later on the morning of the 6 th, when asked why he canceled the trip to the CDC, Trump said: "We can go. They think there is something wrong with the CDC, and someone is infected with the virus. They have conducted a very comprehensive test on this person, and the test results showed negative. " He further said: "I may go, and they will see if they can turn things around through the Secret Service."

  So, the question is, CNN said: Is the White House canceling (Trump’s visit to the CDC) because they don’t want to distract the CDC, or because they are worried that Trump’s visit to the CDC will expose him (and his White House staff) to the virus? CNN believes that there is a big difference between the two.

  CNN said that what is even more puzzling is that according to White House Press Secretary grisham, the president’s visit to the CDC has now been rescheduled — — Grisham later explained that Trump’s trip was cancelled and he resumed his visit, saying, "What the President said is true.".

  Here comes the point.

  Therefore, CNN commented: We got different information from official channels. The American media bluntly said that almost every week Trump said something in public, either directly refuting or "digging the corner of the information sent by the White House". "Of course, it also raises a new question: Who should I trust?"

  CNN believes that it is never a good thing to release double or contradictory information, especially when dealing with things like Covid-19, which is more likely to cause problems. "What the public needs is facts. Get a set of facts from a reliable source. " The CNN article said, "But when the White House says one thing and the President says another, things become more complicated."

  The article said that President Trump doesn’t seem to care much about the difference between what he said and what the White House said, even when there is a difference with what the medical profession said.

  For example, Trump has repeatedly hinted that the United States will soon develop a COVID-19 vaccine, but experts like Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, have repeatedly made it clear that the vaccine will take at least 12-18 months.

  In addition, Trump also rejected the medical warning that "the spread of Covid-19 in the United States is inevitable", saying that "(Covid-19 spread) may be at a very small level or at a greater level."

  After World Health Organization Director-General Tan Desai said that the global mortality rate in Covid-19 was about 3.4%, Trump told Fox News: "Well, I think 3.4% is really a wrong number. This is just my intuition, and it is based on a lot of communication with many people who are engaged in this work, because many people may be infected with the virus, but the symptoms are very mild. "

  CNN said that on the morning of the 6th local time, when the number of confirmed cases in the United States was increasing, Trump said "this was unexpected" when talking about Covid-19, but stressed that the United States "closed the passage with China very early".

  "The point is that when we urgently need to get clear facts from reliable sources, the president gave us something else." CNN finally commented.
