At today's White House Task Force press conference, Trump called out the WHO for favoring China over US (and likely other countries.)


Trump said China pays the WHO about $40 million a year, while US pays the WHO $300 to $500 million a year. He said things are going to change with the disparity in payment to the WHO. More on this issue to come next week, he said.


Trump said he's tired of the US being taken advantage of by the WHO and UN.


He said, "How stupid were the people who stood here [at the podium in the White House] to let us be taken advantage of," referring to prior presidents and administrations.


I'm thrilled to hear Trump plans to stop all or part of US money flowing to the WHO and place a wedge between the China-WHO love fest.




Note: It was my goal to get all of the quotes exact. Apologies if I am off a word or two.

The WHO calls Taiwan The Republic of China and rejected Taiwan's early warnings about the coronavirus.

Trump is right.

China only gave the World Health Organisation (WHO) the numbers that they had. It is like how America likely has far more cases than we realize but because of testing kit scarcity and hospital capacity issues, we often hear about an uptick in deaths but not officially Covid-19 related due to no tests. You point the finger at China, we should also be pointing our fingers at the mirror.

Yes, Trump is right.


The WHO head dude visited China and met with Xi Jinping during China's Covid lockdown period. Pics illustrate the two men had a long, warm conversation. They're too chummy and "in bed together."


Based on various reports and a documentary I've seen on Youtube, the WHO kept the severity of the Covid outbreak from the US, and other countries, to benefit China and Jinping.


Cut all ties with China! They're trying to overtake the US, become The Super Power and make us subordinate to them.

While WHO was warning us about the coming pandemic, Trump was telling the American people there was nothing to worry about and it was under control.
