Sen. Lindsey Graham and Rudy Giuliani Keep Up the Dangerous China-Bashing

April 19, 2020 (EIRNS)—Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) kept up his dangerous China-bashing rhetoric, telling Fox’s Judge Jeanine in an April 18 interview that “Gross negligence and willful deception by the Chinese government has led to 22 million Americans being unemployed and 38,000 Americans dead. And China needs to pay.”

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani added his particular rhetorical flourish. “They [China] sent over a million people around the world—1.5 million—almost like ambassadors carrying the disease,” Giuliani told host John Catsimatidis on Sunday’s “The Cats Roundtable” on 970 AM-N.Y. “What’s wrong with them, John? They have no conscience. It’s really a tragedy. This is directly caused by the Chinese Communist government, and by the choices they made. Almost all of this could have been avoided, John. The whole world is kind of shut down for three weeks because of them.”
