“The press is very dishonest,” Trump said, in response to a question from OAN correspondent Chanel Rion about the media, and added, “They are siding with China, they are doing things they should not be doing, they’re siding with many others.”
American establishment media outlets have criticized the president for using the term “Chinese flu” echoing similar criticisms from Chinese state media.
“If we had an honest media in this country, our country would be an even greater place,” Trump concluded.
