  1. As devil's advocate (literally), I'll take a shot at trying to clarify what Trump meant here by "hoax." First of all, after the biggest Stock Market plunge in history, he wants to protect his reputation as a "businessman," and prevent it from falling even lower. Since that plunge was a result of peoples' concern over the Coronavirus, Trump attacked Democrats and "fake news," over how they reported his lack of concern about the virus. What the news and Democrats said was true and factual, though, about what Trump was and wasn't doing. But keep in mind, when it's true and factual about him, Trump calls it "fake news, witch hunt, hoax, etc." THAT was the hoax he referred to at that rally: them speaking badly about him, and how serious and scary the thought of an outbreak here, like in China, would be. For Trump, the outbreak can't be that scary, if he is to prevent another stock market plunge. Back to reality, I saw the video of that rally. He did not, at all, specify any of that. He just said "hoax" to cover the entire thing. And the Trump supporters cheered.
