"Do you believe that's true - that there is some sort of conspiracy theory regarding the number of infections states are reporting?" asked a reporter during an April 27 news conference at the White House Rose Garden.

As the clown show continued, leave it to CNN's top jester Brian Stelter to take the spotlight in a segment with Wolf Blitzer. "I don't blame them!"

On Tuesday, Trump claimed that Chinese Americans are even more upset at China. "This is part of a pattern of behavior from the President".
