This is a news article discussing the U.S. president purposely slowing the Covid testing.The president thinks if we test less we will have less positive coronavirus cases.The idiocy of Trump trying to slow tests is why the United States has the largest amount of coronavirus cases.It makes me angry that he could not use funds allocated for testing and he should be held accountable for it.it is honestly disgusting and people are paying for his foolishness and pride with their lives.
