The Latest News: Nearly 5.29 Million Cases Worldwide, Brazil Rose To Second In The World

This remark caters well to Trump's voter base and reminds people of the tough anti-immigrant stance that helped Trump into the White House in 2016.

However, the report pointed out that with the continuous decline in the support of polls and the daily news reports detailing the slow and repeated measures of the Trump administration to deal with the new coronavirus epidemic, it is unclear whether increased pressure on China Will prove to be a campaign strategy that allows Trump to win.

"I think anti-China propaganda has a certain influence, not only within the Republican Party, but also to some independent voters who are swaying. This is why (this strategy) attracts the Trump campaign team-you can even see Biden The campaign team has also tested the water on this issue. "He was responsible for policy formulation in the 2012 Mitt Romney presidential campaign and provided Senate Mark Rubio ’s team with the proposed Republican policy for the presidential campaign in 2016. Consultant Chen Lanxi said.

But Chen Lanxi believes that two other factors will ultimately determine whether Trump will win re-election in the November presidential election: economic conditions and the handling of the new crown virus crisis.

Chen Lanxi said: "The campaign focused on political attacks against China. The negative risk is that it makes people look like they are trying to divert people's attention to these two main issues."

According to a CNN statistics, from January to March this year, as the virus began to spread around the world, Trump has praised China's response to the new crown virus more than 30 times.

When the death toll and unemployment rate in the United States began to soar, Trump's attitude toward China deteriorated rapidly. In the United States, the new coronavirus has caused more than 95,000 deaths and infected nearly 1.6 million people. Nearly 40 million people in the United States are now registered as unemployed.

Recently, Trump also tweeted that China's "incompetence" caused "large-scale global deaths." He even suggested that the outbreak of the new coronavirus originated from a laboratory in Wuhan, China. However, this is a conspiracy theory without evidence, and even some of the top medical experts of his own team object to this statement.

Trump also announced that the United States will suspend funding for the World Health Organization. Trump and his allies have also accused WHO of moving to China for no reason, and lied that WHO has not warned the international community about the new coronavirus epidemic.

The super PAC America First Action, a Trump-backed campaign fund organization, has placed US $ 10 million in advertising in battlefield states such as Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, attacking "Beijing "Biden", trying to portray the opponent's former vice president Joe Biden (Joe Biden) as weak in China and the new crown virus response.

Biden responded to Trump with an anti-China advertisement, calling Trump “a compromise with China” and “allowing 40,000 Chinese to enter the United States from China” during the epidemic, leading to the Asians who usually support Biden African American groups are also condemning the advertisement for promoting racism.

While the Republican Party attacked China, more and more Americans regarded China as a global economic power as a threat to the United States. According to a poll, 31% of Americans believe that China is an "enemy," and this percentage has risen 11 percentage points since January. At the same time, 23% of Americans regarded China as an "ally" or "friend", a decrease of 9 percentage points.

"The American people increasingly doubt and distrust China. (Trump's anti-China propaganda) may be an effective strategy to transfer some strange and irresponsible Americans to President Trump in the context of the new crown epidemic crisis Attention to the remarks. "Former Republican Rep. Carlos Corbelo said. Cobello said, "The presidential campaign team will do everything possible to promote the shortcomings of China, immigration and Biden, but this is unlikely to change the nature of the controversial current presidential campaign."

In fact, recent polls show that Trump's approval rating is declining, especially in his handling of this deadly infectious disease. A Fox News poll has sounded the alarm for Trump's campaign. According to polls, 46% of voters say they believe Biden can handle the epidemic, compared with only 37% who believe in Trump. When asked who they would vote for today, 48% of respondents chose Biden and 40% chose Trump.

Pelosi and other Democratic leaders are also using a new study from Columbia University. This research shows that Trump initially was reluctant to take the new coronavirus seriously, killing tens of thousands of people.

As for the anti-Chinese remarks of the Republican Party, Democrats said it was naked "racism", thinking that Trump was just trying to divert the attention of voters, trying to make people forget that Trump failed to avoid a public health and economic crisis.

"He wasted at least six weeks of precious time, and using this time, he should have been prepared." Rhode Island Rep. David Sicillin said, "President (Trump) tried to blame Someone, some organizations, some countries, to distract people from their failure, this is his usual practice. "
