It looks like he is purposely limiting testing to keep "the numbers" down for Dear Leader.

CCD Chief Robert Redfield, a RWNJ Trump appointee, said at the CDC presser that the "most important thing" was to thank Trump.

Trump prompts Redfield for what was obviously a previously arranged compliment by saying to Redfield, "Do you have something to say?" At the 5:30 minute mark:

Trump stood next to him nodding as Redfield gushed, then Trump went on an unhinged tear contradicting the scientists and claiming people had complimented him on how well he understands all this. NUTS!
