Here's Jonathan Chait with the latest Trump outrage. The headline is "Trump Sabotaged Coronavirus Testing to Keep Numbers Low." Here's a key paragraph…
There has been a weird reluctance to take Trump's comments seriously or literally. But the accumulation of evidence is quite clear. Trump's public comments, reports of his private position, and the reports by officials of the latest change all point to the same conclusion: Trump is overruling public-health officials and sabotaging coronavirus testing because he believes keeping the case counts misleadingly low will make him look better.
In other news, Trump insists that if we all stop going to the dentist, America will be free of cavities.
