It’s becoming a parlor game of sorts, trying to determine the biggest daily lie coming from Donald John Trump.
My candidate has to do with Trump’s statement today that we are “lapping the field” in terms of testing for the coronavirus.
Hmm. In terms of raw numbers of tests, yes. We are testing more than any other country on Earth.
However …
The per capita testing — the number of tests we give in relation to the rest of the population — is a far more dismal figure. We are not “lapping the field.” The United States remains woefully short. We have tested about 1.5 percent of our population. We have 330 million citizens. We’ve tested a tiny fraction of that total.
That is not how I would calculate the success of our nation’s testing regimen. Nor should Donald Trump foist a phony assertion on us and then boast about how we are “lapping the field.”
Donald Trump lied. Again. He’ll keep lying.
Of course you say he lied, again. “The sky is blue.” “The hell you say. No it’s not.” You’ve upped your game with the number of bashes per day. Good job! Addicts don’t drink or so drugs that much. LOL!
