A Rasmussen poll released Thursday morning reveals that only 47 percent of voters surveyed believe that China is to blame for the rapid spread of the Wuhan coronavirus:
47% of voters believe that China is primarily to blame for the coronavirus pandemic, 27% of voters think it's at least somewhat likely that the Chinese government intentionally created and released the coronavirus -- @ScottWRasmussen pic.twitter.com/gfSvSntYqk

Holding the China’s communist regime accountable for their negligence toward and cover-up of what has grown into a global health pandemic has become highly partisan; while Republicans want China to be responsible for the damage the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has caused, Democrats refuse to acknowledge the regime’s hand in the spread of the virus.
Democrats declare that even labeling the virus as the “Wuhan coronavirus” is racist and xenophobic, despite the virus’s origin. Journalists in the briefing room have also done their part to run interference for the CCP, many of whom have chosen to take China’s reported numbers at face-value. Bloomberg finally conceded that China has engaged in a cover-up:

Democrats have used the COVID-19 crisis to gaslight the American people into thinking that President Trump is negligent, despite his administration’s bold and decisive action, in hopes of dragging former Vice President Joe Biden over the finish line in November. If rightfully holding China accountable were not a partisan divide, and if the mainstream media would stop doing damage control for the CCP, more Americans would recognize that China plays a severe role in the rapid spread of COVID-19.
