President Donald Trump on Wednesday suggested that the United States didn’t have a choice in spending trillions of dollars in federal funds in response to the CCP virus pandemic, as concerns mount over the growing national debt and damage to the economy.
The president said that while the growing national debt was of concern, the United States has to “fix this problem,” referring to the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as the novel coronavirus, which has been attributed to at least 840,000 cases and 46,688 deaths in the United States, according to a tracking map from Johns Hopkins University.
