Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» So far has trump taken credit yet for having the highest number of infected and the highest number of deaths of any country?
Trump did not order nursing homes to accept Covid19 patients and forbid testing. Trump did not prevent Doctors from using life saving meds that are being used throughout the world.
So no Trump will not take credit for it. We do not have a dictatorship in the US. So our local leaders can take the blame if they made those laws/executive orders.
Right now Trump/GOP are sitting on 14 billion dollars that has been passed by Congress for coronavirus testing and contact tracing. They probally don't want to test because the numbers will be huge. A few days ago and also at his rally last night Trump said they should be doing less testing - today his spin doctors are saying he was just joking. I don't find it funny but I guess they find it funny because they are sitting on 14 billion dollars. Cheers!

It was obviously a joke. And another example of President Trump playing the media like a fiddle. I told my husband when the President said it....'There is tomorrow's headline."
Fat chance meaning NONE that the money will used for that! It will find its way into bank accounts of the trumps or the high roller obscenely wealthy donors. Wanna bet? Naw. You're much too smart for that! Thank you for your reply Nanoose! :)
