About this listen
Today President Trump stated at a rally in Tulsa, where COVID cases are spiking and where the event tickets included a disclaimer not to sue the Trump campaign if they caught the deadly virus at his rally, that he had directed officials to slow virus testing and find fewer COVID-19 cases.
The self proclaimed businessman's claim of the US doing twenty million more test than the next nearest country is also a slight exaggeration. There are no countries in the testing Top 5 that the US tested twenty million more than.
The first country that the US has conducted twenty million more tests than is Italy, who's entire population is sixty million.
