India, China do not give real numbers on coronavirus, says Donald Trump

While engaging in a heated debate with presidential candidate Joe Biden, United States President Donald Trump mentioned India twice while arguing with the Democrat nominee. However neither of the mentions were in praise of India.

As Joe Biden started cornering Donald Trump on the US government’s response towards the COVID-19 pandemic, Trump attempted to shift the blame towards China and India.
We don’t know how many people died of Covid-19 in China, Russia, India… because they do not give straight answers, they don’t give real numbers,” said Trump.

In between the argument Donald Trump attempted to once again blame China for the pandemic that has so far claimed over 10 lakh lives across the world with US suffering the number of deaths.
Calling Trump “totally irresponsible” on managing Covid-19, Joe Biden said the president is “a fool on this” and said Trump is only worried about masks in the interest of protecting his own health and not others.

In yet another reference to India and China during a discussion on climate change, Donald Trump said, “China sends up real dirt into the air. Russia does. India does.”

US President Donald Trump and his Democratic challenger Joe Biden squared off on several topics during the first presidential debate Wednesday, including the vacant Supreme Court seat, the Covid-19 pandemic, the ongoing protests against racial inequality, healthcare, climate change and mail-in ballots. While Biden, 77, was targeted for his son, Hunter Biden’s alleged Ukraine links, Trump, 74, was questioned over a report that alleged he paid only $750 in taxes in the first two years of his presidency.

This was the first of three debates scheduled ahead of the US elections on November 3. The next will take place on October 15, followed by October 22. The Vice Presidential debate between Vice President Mike Pence and Senator Kamala Harris will be held on October 7.

Among the highlights of the debate was Trump constant interruptions, speaking over both Biden and moderator Chris Wallace. While Wallace pleaded with Trump to wait his turn, Biden at one point snapped: “Will you shut up, man?”

Biden has been ahead of Trump in most national polls since the start of the year, and is currently leading in major battleground states, including Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, where the Republicans won in 2016
