Oh my, PJ's repeating the lies about Trump claiming that the virus was a hoax. You guys send too much time viewing the CNN and MSNBC edited versions of Trump's speech and not enought of the unedited version. Snopes agree that the Libs continue to lie on this one.
Trump's in charge, by the way. He has people working for him, as every good leader does.
Thanks for pointing us to SNopes.

What's True
During a Feb. 28, 2020, campaign rally in South Carolina, President Donald Trump likened the Democrats' criticism of his administration's response to the new coronavirus outbreak to their efforts to impeach him, saying "this is their new hoax." During the speech he also seemed to downplay the severity of the outbreak, comparing it to the common flu.
What's False
Despite creating some confusion with his remarks, Trump did not call the coronavirus itself a hoax.
