Jesse Hunt, an NRSC spokesman, said: “We routinely send campaigns
different documents and sources of information dozens of times per week.
That’s the role of the party committee, especially in these volatile
times.”
O’Donnell declined to comment.
The memo includes guidance on what Republican candidates can say when
asked whether blaming China for the pandemic incites racism. Candidates
are urged to respond by saying that, “No one is blaming Chinese
Americans. This is the fault of the Chinese Communist Party for covering
up the virus and lying about its danger. This caused the pandemic and
they should be held accountable.”
“No one has suffered more from the murderous Communist Chinese Party
dictatorship than the people of China,” the memo adds. “We stand with
them against their corrupt government that caused this pandemic.”
The GOP’s planned China-focused assault, however, is complicated by
Trump’s occasional praise for President Xi Jinping. The liberal
organization American Bridge recently launched a
commercial which plays a clip of the president praising Xi and declares that Trump “gave China his trust.”
