Fed up with China’s lies about the coronavirus, Florida Sen. Rick Scott urged the public “never” to buy anything from China.

Appearing on Larry O’Connor’s Examining Politics podcast for the Washington Examiner and Washington's top talk station, WMAL, he said that China should be punished for hiding details of the virus from the world and that it should come as an economic hit.

“First off, if you ever buy anything made in China, you should say to yourself, ‘You are supporting a government that intentionally misled us, and American citizens died.’ Why would we ever do that?” said Scott, whose state is getting hammered by the virus.

He added, “We should try to never buy one product ever built in China.”

His comments came after reports on Wednesday that China concealed the facts of the virus, which most people had already suspected.

“Their actions killed American citizens. Their actions, no question, killed American citizens, Italian citizens,” said Scott, who has proposed legislation to build a U.S. stockpile of anti-virus goods and equipment that the China supplies.
