tRump doesn't want the coronavirus numbers to grow...

I hate to think he's withholding the testing for the sake of appearances.

But nothing surprises me at the lengths he will go to.

1. That's exactly what's happening here.

[spanone]

3. What other scenario is there? I'm open to any reasonable explanation.

7. There is this tiny voice in the back of my mind, worrying that

it could be more nefarious..as time goes on that voice gets louder.

[redstateblues]

6. I agree totally. At least the media is starting to talk about it. There is a chance it's just rank

incompetence but I do think that all trump cares about is the numbers

[dewsgirl]

9. Of course.

2. The whole point

4. Surprised we aren't hearing about ICUs being overrun with "the flu" yet

[leftieNanner]

5. Ding! Ding! Ding!

And we have a winner here!

Of course he is doing that. He still thinks he can control the virus by threatening it. He is still full-steam-ahead towards his reelection. And the thing that's so stupid - if he had handled this crisis head on with a good plan, he could have risen in stature with the American public. But the opposite is true!

I think that's why he didn't want the cruise ship to dock in the US because that would increase the number from 15!

Every day, I think he can't possibly get worse - and then he does!

8. We pretty much all think that's what he's doing.

[GusBob]

10. Ask yourself why is this so?

Wall street
His ratings
His election

Are all things he puts above our health

[cynatnite]

11. He relies on the pretense that the US is so much better off with him in power. n/t

[duforsure]

12. Trump needs to start up 2new departments,

Department of denials, and the Department of Excuses.

[cynatnite]

13. So, according to NPR tRump wouldn't allow testing in January...

What a predictable a-hole.
