    Harris was on Colbert a day or two ago talking about it and she kept calling them tests, which makes it sound like a case of $10 tests. But she did a good job of telling people to remember how hard it was to get tested at the time, how people had to wait in line in their cars for hours, then wait a few days to get the results.

    Also remember Trump kept saying we didn’t need to test so much because when we tested a lot it made the number of cases go up., which was so incredibly stupid. I saw a clip where he was on tv ranting that we were testing too much and it turned out to be the very same day he gave those machines to Putin.

      It’s like telling the accounting department to stop posting journal entries because it “keeps making the balance sheet go down”.

      Then again, we’re talking about a guy who managed to bankrupt multiple casinos. Businesses for which the revenue model consists mostly of people handing you money, and you handing 3/4 of it back.

      Yet another statement from Donald which even on its own should have ended any support whatsoever. Yet another act of corruption.
