"We have 151 countries right now that are under siege by the virus," the president said while the White House Coronavirus Task Force was briefing reporters on the U.S. response to the virus outbreak, adding that some of the countries "aren't highly sophisticated" in tackling the crisis.

"If China can help them, I'm all for it," Trump said. "I would love China and other countries if they have additional supplies, medical supplies, to give to other countries."

Trump is a bipolar motherfucker. He's already endangered the safety of Asian Americans by racializing the disease and labeling it the "Chinese virus". Now he's praising China.

Not going to stop the inevitable Cold War 2.0 coming up though.
