A Washington Post reporter took a photo of Trump’s notebook at the podium where he crossed out “corona” and replaced it with “Chinese”:

Ok honestly that’s hilarious. Trump isn’t going to allow the Democrat media to force him away from standing his ground against Chinese propaganda. Except now he’s probably doing it, not just to stand up to China, but also to stand up to the media who keep ridiculously claiming that it’s racist.
Here’s a few awesome responses to the photos…
The political incorrectness of @realDonaldTrump is one of his most endearing qualities https://t.co/g0011h78fM
