The authorities of New York are desperately trying to blame Donald Trump for the fact that the city became the American epicenter of the coronavirus epidemic, although they themselves called on people to sabotage the principle of self-isolation.
This was told by the famous American columnist Tucker Carlson on the Fox News television channel.
He recalled how, more recently, the mayor of New York, Bill de Blasio, in a liberal outburst called coronavirus “racist fabrication” and through social networks openly called on residents of his city to visit public places. In particular, Carlson quoted one of the publications of the mayor, which appeared on the social network on March 2.
“If I support that New Yorkers do not give up their usual way of life and go out, contrary to the coronavirus, I believe that I can offer something. First, go to the movie “The Traitor” on Thursday, ”de Blasio wrote, ignoring the threat.
This campaign of sabotage of self-isolation continued for a long time. In particular, on March 11, the mayor of New York claimed that it makes no sense to stay at home if the person is not infected.
“By the time the Italian authorities had already announced a nationwide quarantine, the mayor of one of the most populous cities in the world urged everyone to continue to live. It’s like a coronavirus coming from China is nothing more than a racist fabrication, ”Carlson emphasizes.
This policy led to the fact that New York became not only the epicenter of the epidemic in the United States, but also the leader in the number of deaths due to coronavirus. According to the latest data from Johns Hopkins University, of the one and a half thousand dead Americans, 366 are New Yorkers.
“Suddenly, de Blasio came to the program“ Meet the Press ”, screaming that Donald Trump left the city to the mercy of fate, that he was to blame. Such accusations work in most cases, because de Blasio decided on this, ”the journalist explains.
He noted that de Blasio’s liberal approach helped him gain the post of mayor of New York, although he was always in doubt.
“Now it can lead to a split. It became clear that people could die from this. Perhaps we have a chance to stop in time, ”Tucker Carlson stated.
As News Front previously reported, Bill de Blasio, an ardent supporter of the LGBT community, allowed New Yorkers to indicate the third gender on their birth certificates.
