An ambassador from China has just spoken out to praise failed 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for her recent attack on President Donald Trump in which she accused the president of being racist for calling the coronavirus the “Chinese virus.”
“The president is turning to racist rhetoric to distract from his failures to take the coronavirus seriously early on, make tests widely available, and adequately prepare the country for a period of crisis,” Clinton tweeted on Wednesday. “Don’t fall for it. Don’t let your friends and family fall for it.”

China’s communist regime has since responded through Lin Songtian, the Chinese ambassador to South Africa, who shared a tweet from the regime-owned agency China News Service.
“It is true. Justice always speak loudly,” the ambassador wrote alongside an article about Democrats like Clinton and Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) calling out President Trump for what they describe as his “racist rhetoric.”
China is desperate for a scapegoat when it comes to the coronavirus pandemic, so it comes as no surprise that they have gleefully hopped on board with Democrats in calling Trump “racist” for calling the virus the “Chinese virus,” something the leftist media was doing themselves until just a short time ago.
Liberal media pundits want you to think referring to the coronavirus as the “Wuhan” or “Chinese” virus is racist.

Clinton has been all too happy to attack Trump over his handling of the coronavirus outbreak every chance she got this past week. On Thursday, she tweeted, “Let’s try this again, @realdonaldtrump: Hospitals are already running out of ventilators and beds. Nurses are using bandanas as masks.”
“If you’ve already ordered more with the Defense Production Act, tell us now,” Clinton continued. “If you haven’t, you’re failing to lead and failing Americans.”
Let’s try this again, @realdonaldtrump:
Hospitals are already running out of ventilators and beds. Nurses are using bandanas as masks.
If you’ve already ordered more with the Defense Production Act, tell us now.
If you haven’t, you’re failing to lead and failing Americans.

Clinton was ignoring the fact that President Trump had actually taken this action the day before, when NPR reported:
The law contains a section that authorizes the president to control the production and distribution of scarce materials deemed “essential to the national defense.” In his executive order, Trump specifically cites protective equipment (presumably face masks) and ventilators as meeting the criteria in this provision.
It’s sad that Clinton has resorted to siding with communist regimes and spreading fake news just to try and take Trump down. Clinton has failed at the majority of things she has tried in her life, so it’s likely that she will fail once again in her attempts to ensure that Trump is not reelected in November.
