White House waves off needs for more testing — because Americans will never be satisfied and want a test ‘an hour later’


Published 1 min ago on May 6, 2020


White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany was dismissive of the need for more testing during the briefing Wednesday.

According to McEnany the United States leads the world in testing, which doesn’t exactly create the whole picture. The U.S. has tested fewer than 2 percent of Americans and has one of the lowest rates of testing per capita in the world.


McEnany then waved off the idea that Americans needed to be tested, saying “it’s simply nonsensical.”


“If we tested every individual, we’d have to test an hour later and an hour later,” because COVID-19 could be contracted an hour after a test.

1. As usual, it's up to the individual states . .

t-rump, his administration and the republicans are exploding.

[sakabatou]

7. But FEMA, and possible other agencies, keeps stealing supplies

[Rebl2]

25. I said it once

and I’ll say it again. I think they are taking supplies to hand at his rallies that will no doubt start up again soon. I hate him so much.

[Walleye]

2. She gets tested every day. Not a doubt in my mind.

[Midnightwalk]

14. That should have been the follow up question nt

[Aerator]

17. The only thing with that would be those asking the questions are most likely being tested also

[Newest Reality]

3. Americans are such ingrates...

Americans are such ingrates. Whiny, expectant complainers wanting testing over and over and over? That's just mass consumption again. Oh, wait...

Princess Pravda is off and running. I am not impressed by the spin so far, though. Nice try, though. She could do better as far as making things up on the fly. Nonsensical really wasn't a good choice of words when you are making excuses for the Con.

[unblock]

4. translation: donnie is getting tested every hour.

[appalachiablue]

5. Bull sh*t, lie

[Zoonart]

6. Yeah... America...you're such a bunch of

whiny babies.



Keep digging assholes.

[NRaleighLiberal]

8. I will never watch or listen to her. She is Kelly Ann Conjob level of disgust to me.

[riversedge]

16. I listened at her first Presser--for about 10 minutes. Then walked away. She is what

I call a snot.

[Grammy23]

9. Did anyone ask that hag if she's been tested and

how many times?? Grrrrrrrr......

[ashredux]

10. Yea, that's the ticket...don't need no silly testing....

Get your sorry ass back on the line at the Plant!

[LastDemocratInSC]

11. There's a fundamental rule of management:

You cannot control what you don't measure.

Not testing is the same as surrendering.

They are overwhelmed, in way over their heads, and along for the ride just like the rest of us.

[ProfessorGAC]

22. And This Crowd Knows What About Management?

The top of their pyramid is someone who is a pretend billionaire, and would have been wealthier than he even lied about had he only given the $ to professional fund managers.
Good management doesn't involve multiple BKO, including one because the idiot competed against himself.
There's no way any of them would grasp what you wrote.
Besides, you wrote a fact. They don't do facts!

[Yeehah]

12. This gal got a job waiting for her in North Korea

after Trump is evicted.

Nothing but lies and bullshit!

[mr_lebowski]

13. Obviously she's an idiot and gish-galloper ...

But it doesn't sounds like she's saying Americans would want to get tested every hour.

Sounds she's arguing that the usefulness of testing everyone is somewhat limited because, in fact, anyone could actually contract the virus an hour after getting the test.

That is actually true.

However the point of testing lots of people is not to positively assert that nobody has it.

It's to a) get people who might spread it out of circulation, and b) gather useful statistics to use in modeling, which are in turn useful for decision-making at a micro and macro-level.

Or, at least, they WOULD be useful, if we had leadership that gave a single FUCK about how many people get sick and die.

Which we don't.

[ProfessorGAC]

23. You're Right

But if she had a third brain cell, she would have phrased it much more precisely.

[Magoo48]

15. This just pisses me off.

Some FOX reject presuming to know the motivations of 330 million people while casting aside proven science at the behest of the Orange Ghoul and his Clowns of the Apocalypse. Well, it just pisses me off.

[noneof_theabove]

18. what a great start

did she not say at the first presser she would not lie.

They all are the worst of the worst [tRump lied during the campaign to only hire the best]

[Javaman]

19. well there it is, he kicks you out of the boat when he knows you can't swim.

then yells at you for not taking lessons as you drown.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

20. Promise made: "tests for anyone who wants one". Promise broken. . . . nt

[liberalmuse]

21. I think I'm done with "despicable" today.

I've never seen such contempt from our government before. Even Bush II, as bad as he was cared about the American people to some extent. This administration just wants us all to drop dead while mass transferring our tax dollars to their benefactors (and themselves). I'm afraid if this is allowed to continue Trump is going not merely going to be removed from office by vote. He will be dragged out of office by angry mobs. (See: Mussolini)

[CaptYossarian]

24. She's got testing confused with eating Chinese food.

And she's not qualified to think for me when she doesn't know how to think.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

26. Just one more blonde, hollow-headed mannaquin

in a long string of low IQ, cold-blooded, mail-order bimbos, momentarily power-drunk on their short-lived time in the spotlight, humping for trump. Are they getting all these ridiculous creatures from the same vacu-form mold ?

[dalton99a]

27. "It's like eating Chinese food, you're hungry again in an hour"

[Hotler]

28. Bitch!.................... nt
