Rep. Meng blames Trump for anti-Asian violence

Rep. Grace Meng (D-N.Y.) took aim at former President Trump in a recent interview for his use of terms like “Chinese virus” and “Kung flu” when referring to the coronavirus, saying his charged rhetoric helped contribute to a spike in anti-Asian attacks seen in the nation this past year.

“When I first heard the former president use words like ‘kung flu’ and ‘Chinese virus,’ I was really horrified. And every time he said it, I thought, okay, this will be the last time. He couldn’t possibly continue to use it,” Meng said during an appearance on Bill Clinton’s “Why Am I Telling You This?” podcast on Thursday.

“And even the WHO, the World Health Organization, even his own secretary of health suggested that we don’t use words like that, but he continued,” she said, “and so, while racially motivated harassment of Asian Americans is a longstanding issue and certainly didn’t start last year. But since COVID-19 began, the incidents have been nonstop.”

  1. She’s a Chinese spy , the whole Asian narrative was created to stop people from criticizing China. Democrats launch the narrative and a day later a shooting like it was ordered … Democrats are very sick and dangerous
