President Donald Trump arrives on stage to speak at a campaign rally at the BOK Center, Saturday, June 20, 2020, in Tulsa, Okla.
Trump told supporters at his campaign rally that the U.S. has tested 25 million people, far more than any other country. The “bad part,” Trump said, is that widespread testing leads to logging more cases of the virus. “In an outrageous moment that will be remembered long after tonight’s debacle of a rally, President Trump just admitted that he’s putting politics ahead of the safety and economic well-being of the American people — even as we just recorded the highest number of new COVID-19 cases in almost two months and 20 million workers remain out of work,” according to the Biden campaign’s statement.
God help us.
See what I mean All about TRUMP
naomirwolf Literal threat to National Security.
Twit lies again
naomirwolf he was clearly joking when he said that
It was not a suggestion, it was an admission of what he did! trumpbodycount
We need to IQ test anyone that agrees with that
He didn’t suggest it. He said he ordered “his people” to slow down the testing.
Who cares 😎 unfit president you never worked or was in military your family rich you never know what is to work unfit to be president 😎💯🇺🇸
Ya and imsure you heard this directly from Trump. Karma sucks AP
Oh, well isn’t that the purpose of testing? Determine whether one is infected so contact tracing can begin to slow the spread. A “kid with sniffles” that’s infected is no different than someone with a serious case of COVIDー19 - they can continue the spread! ResignNowTrump
What confuses me is that once they figured out that the crowd was smaller than expected, why they didn’t spread out the attendees to protect them from spreading the virus? Oh yeah, I keep forgetting... he doesn’t care about their health.
Is Trump for real . COVID testing has to be done to safe life's. Trumps saying testing or COVID 19 should be slowed down puts American life's at risk. When Are Americans going to realise Trump is going senile . If not already senile?
FreemontJane Moron !! lol

He didn’t ‘suggest’, he actually said it. Please correct.
Yea that always works with the baby with its eyes hidden that thinks if he can’t see you you aren’t there. 😡
Will all great Neptune's ocean wash the blood clean from his hands?
Duh!
BeverlyFolkers
Tom_Fowdy No test no case
Who cares?
Great interview by Jake Tapper 2day.. it was 'tongue in cheek' according to Peter Navarro. Really? Day after day when people are dying of it?... no mention that the virus entered the US thru Italy either.
I saw the speech. I saw the humor in his comments. Why does the news intentionally twist his words? Irresponsible reporting to skew the facts.
CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA communist chairman XI please please help me with reelection CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA COCID_19
No, he said that he already instructed his “people” to do just that. Not a suggestion for the future. covidtesting testing testandtrace COVID__19 covid19 TrumpPandemic pandemic TrumpPandemicFailure

Yep. Politics is the art of controlling your environment.
No. He said he did slow it down. Already. And now 120k plus americans are dead.
Unbelievable! Trump can’t be put out of office fast enough!!
Fake News! WWG1WGA
Trump calling the LEFT dumb He should have added what Dems felt necessary to tell those on the LEFT (the dumber than 💩 robotic trained) “DO NOT DRINK BLEACH!”
He was joking. He pointed out so many times that fake news would jump on something and he was right.
Thats not what he said and you arnt being honest. He said he told them to slow down the testing. Those were his words.
And the worst part? Ignorant people will accept this as gospel
Duh.....DJT is delusional. Some kind of mental illness.
Suffested? He didn’t suggest. He said he’s already told governors to stop testing.
darionavarro111 “So I said to my people, ‘Slow the testing down, please.’' That is an order already given. Not a suggestion.
Sarcasm anyone?
NO. He suggested that he HAD slowed down testing. WORLD OF DIFFERENCE. GET YOUR HEADLINES CORRECTED!
Psychopath
realDonaldTrump thinks slowing down testing will make the pandemic go away. It won't. TrumpLies
Trumps argument was increased testing positive totals can be misleading. PER CAPITA results should be published for a more accurate representation of the problem.
He DIDN'T SUGGEST, he CONFESSED he broke the law.
realDonaldTrump because less testing = less “confirmed”cases. But how would you know how many cases you have if you don’t do testing? How would you know who is contagious and who is not if you don’t do testing? If testing was so unnecessary, why do WH staff get tested daily?🤔
Honestly curious how you can be this incompetent at the most important job in the world and still be employed, meanwhile you can get fired from wendy's for coming up a dollar short at the end of the night.
People defending Trump like they helped him write his speech, so they know exactly what he meant. In other words, people shouldn’t pay attention to his actual words because he meant something else. Idiots!!
best President ever. trump2020. The virus has been here since August of last year according to Harvard research. It’s election year. Need I say more? Lies to keep sheep in fear to control believing in fake news.
And trump's rally attendees shaking their heads in agreement. 'People should slow down testing to reduced infected people from being counted' unbelievable.
MouthoffYall AP, I believe the more accurate rendering is that he TOLD his people to slow the testing down. Fix this tweet.
🤣🤣
FredsFailure DeSantisBetrayedFlorida EveryoneislaughingatyouDonald TrumpCoronaFest2020
What would be the word for telling a truth with bad intentions?
False positives.
Trump is suggesting that testing should be slowed probably because someone numerate in his administration has pointed out that the USA is on track to break, before the end of June, the record for the highest single-day number of coronavirus infections... SecondWave 2ndWave
I watched and heard that statement. He was making a joke! You people are something else!
Fake news
Welcome to Brazil
He didn’t say “suggest”, he said.”I told them”
He admitted that he did slow down testing that resulted in dead Americans
Need to know: Did he elaborate on this testing slowdown? Was this in the beginning? He's getting bolder, and that means more confessions. He's got Barr. No reason to hide.
How can anyone still support him?! Republicans need to finally stand up and do what is right. He is bringing your party down. There has to be plenty of Republicans that are more qualified and, let's be honest, sane.
Slow down testing just so u don’t look bad? All for yourself u don’t care about Americans! trumpers aren’t too bright!
don't test, don't tell. feels like that's been the real policy all along...why is this only now news?
Trumps testing rant is the new definition of stupid.
Come on guys. That is not what he said. He said he told his people to slow down testing.
Apparently, working 24/7 on Fake News cancels out your sense of humor. What kind of economy killing infection is it that hasn’t reached One Percent of our population after nearly six months. While cases have jumped, due to testing, deaths lowered to less than 1000 per day
realDonaldTrump using your logic we should stop testing blood pressure to cure HBP, stop testing blood sugar to cure diabetes, stop pregnancy tests to end teen pregnancy & stop blood alcohol tests to eliminate DUI. EmptySeats EmptyHeads TulsaFlop TrumpRallyFail 6200
Well duh. Even his followers with a GED know that.
He suggested. Lol he flat out said it. TrumpsCoronavirusRally TrumpRallyFail TrumpCoronaFail TrumpIsANationalDisgrace

Wrong he said he already did that. Get it right AP; we look to you for accuracy.
130k Americans are laughing from 6 feet under.
President Trump had a great rally...! Brainless biden could never have a rally half as good...I don't support daca...send 'em back to where they came from...they are using usa taxpayers resources and taking jobs...and they bring in their relatives to usa...

Staggering stupidity.
Really - very very very misleading
That's the genius thinking that has landed him in bankruptcy court multiple times.
US is 26th in per capita testing behind UK, Spain, Bahrain, Singapore, the list goes on. there is no ‘More testing’ going in here, haha, the President said this people! The president just said we test more so we have more cases! Wow! Either a liar or fool, or all of the above
I’m telling you he is very smart.
Fake news
shareitarie10 Does that mean he will STOP getting testing every day?
Just plain evil
when you get the news from the AP, you used to get a summary of a speech
Isn't this voluntary manslaughter?
He's right.
The soundings of a feeble mind.
So, if you never take a pregnancy test, you’ll never give birth. If you never take an std test, you’ll never have chlamydia. If you never take a lie detector test, you never lie. Sound logic from the guy who tests negatively toward positive in the most tremendous way ever seen!
Maybe not the smartest guy in the room.
GaladrielResist That’s the exact opposite of a plan. coronavirus MoreTesting
GOPabomination Actually he said he asked to have it slowed down
That’s his attempt at a joke. It’s not a news item to be taken seriously.
hit piece, he was joking
Its called satire but you know that AP you want to miss report
It was a joke, idiots
AndrewBatesNC He was joking, though actually true. Florida perfect example, s going up deaths and hospitalizations going down. Just a fact.
AndrewBatesNC Officially Trump is now the dumbest person ever to be “elected” to the Presidency. TrumpMeltdown TrumpRallyFail
he didn’t suggest shit, he said he ALREADY DID IT. stop cleaning up for him AP, we have a deranged asshole for president who is completely unfit for office and it’s way past time to realize that
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️😭
Oh no, his handlers were right quick on that one. White House almost immediately said, 'He was just joking.'
How many days until we're done with this dummy?
If riots and protests are not stopping people from getting out then the work force shouldn't be stopped either. Sick of the stupidity surrounding this virus. MOST adult people can handle themselves and make their own decisions.
That was a joke, I was watching that.
Such a pathetic, dangerous man.
Yes, Donnie. By all means let's slow down COVID testing because killing 120,000 Americans didn't quite quench your thirst for blood & power. TrumpOut2020
It was obviously a joke. Why is the media so terrible at this? Do you honestly think the public doesn’t have ears?
It's so funny that the Liberals did not understand that Trump is trolling them.
Sounds like a typical Con man, doesn't it? We New Yorkers knew this for decades
He didn’t “suggest” it — he said that he TOLD HIS PEOPLE TO SLOW TESTING DOWN. That’s much, much, worse.
Really? He “suggested” it? You are so weak. He said do it. He did not suggest it. Be better.
gut this fish Send a message to repressive and elitists leaders by charging Trump with CrimesAgainstHumanity
Did he suggest? He said he told them to do less testing. It wasn’t a suggestion.
A very sick man.
Amazing that after almost 4 years the media cant tell when hes joking.
Disgusting
I'm canceling any future colonoscopies. If I don't test for it, I can't get cancer. Thanks Trump!
He didn't suggest shit! That no good, fucked up, evil mfer said that's what he TOLD them to do!!!
You can’t fix stupid and Trump keeps proving that.
IT WAS IN JEST, A JOKE! NO WONDER THE DEMS ARE SHEEP, THEY CAN'T TELL THE DIFFERENCE!
He really is that stupid. That is his main weakness, stupidity.
IDIOT!
Correction our FailedPOTUS did not 'suggest' slowing down testing, he SAID he TOLD his enablers to slow down testing.
Vote.
It’s Bullshit that after3 1/2 years, the “News Clerks” would understand Trumps humor, once again,terrible ,dishonest reporting, let’s start a “Sucker Punch a News Clerk Today campaign” . The AP isn’t even relevant anymore, LMAO, terrible,dishonest group of news clerks
Criminal negligence causing death.
He said it; more than a suggestion
Is anybody going to tell this guy how this works
trump said he TOLD 'them' to slow down testing. He didn't suggest that it slows down now. So more undiagnosed cases of the virus were walking around infecting other people leading to increase the number of deaths. This is all on Trump
What a joke!
Of course...more testing, more cases...he looks bad! Isn’t that what’s important?
How did “suggested” get squeezed into this? That’s not what he said.
And he wasn’t “just kidding.”
He didn’t “suggest” he SAID on live TV that he asked for the tests to be stopped! Is not going out on a limb when the quote is live! DO BETTER! CALL HIM OUT. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
He deliberately gave you a complaint. You fell for it!
You guys are making this up ... there’s really only 15 cases and it will miraculously go away by itself. Some doctor wannabe named Donald Rump told me that. It’s true because it’s on social media.
No one cares about trump..
And the idiots cheered
SusanVermazen Simple logic eludes him. Stupidity however...
Omg, he “suggested?!”” Get it right! He said he told them to slow it down, no suggestion involved 🙄😬
To top off, recent studies show the antibodies only last 3-4 months after infection. This is a big cluster f**k.
JohnRoss43 Will he stop counting deaths? MattHancock has some tips to reduce the long peak by...lying and hiding and changing and judging...do others agree ?globalhlthtwit Sir_David_King piersmorgan devisridhar alexander_minh surely US scientists will register excess deaths later?
Ignorant 🤦🏻♀️
Stop using music from the artists you call radical left. Find some right wing music. oh yeah no one want to hear that crap. 😂😂😂😂
what is wrong with your president, really ?🤔
He was joking fake news.
Thus leading to more death. He’s guilty of negligent homicide.
What a wicked man, we’ve got to get rid of him in November he’s out to destroy all Americans lives, especially Black People. What he’s saying, flies in the face of All his medical team has been advocating . Testing Tracing Treatment, the keys to Social Distancing Measures-:))
Almost. From what I heard he said he asked that testing be slowed. He would prefer people die rather than lose a vote
I have to verify this. Headlines are usually fiction.
Very glad I watched the rally so I know with the president really sad. This is a poor job of reporting.
Stop testing and make hydroxychloroquine more available realDonaldTrump answer to Covid19
What’s the amendment after the 24th?
and people STILL support a dipsh*t who says that kinda garbage.
Dear white people please feel free to donate to my cash app for Reparation $DRS38
jack do your job!
We should use the same tactic to control population. Fewer pregnancy tests! That’s what we need!
He didn’t suggest it - he said it. Out loud. Clearly.
And if we collectively close our eyes it won’t even be here anymore
Not “should”, he said they did. He said he told his people to slow down testing. He’s killed people. Stop with the fake headlines that downplay his role!!!!!!
Doesn't listen well. Humor is lost on this political machine which disguises itself as a news organization.
Next a knock knock joke becomes a dingdong ditch, news at 11
This isn’t the first time he’s had said this. He’s always had a problem with testing. and with the numbers because it reflects on him. Way back in the beginning he wouldn’t let people off of a cruise ship in CA because it would inflate the cases by 40. THAT WAS REAL
He never bothers with facts , why should this be different
That s right, coronaviruses exists in all beings, it s only new for political reasons starting this year. This german doctor explains it :
The same amount of people still gave it regardless of the tests. moron
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD THAT DAMN YOUR GOOD!!!!
Damn fool
Wow.sarcastic remark, idiots
He didn’t suggest it, he outright stated he did it.
I watched it.., it was satire, now he has changed the narrative.., he plays the media like a violin.
You really deserve the heaps of criticism you receive. He was joking, but even after nearly 4 years you still don't get it.
Your reporting is disgusting activism. He was clearly making a joke. Letting everyone know that testing has increased and activists are using this to inaccurately say cases were increasing. Hospital stays have dramatically gone down.
One day you will be smart enough to know sarcasm. Morons
Jim Jones Jr wants you to take the virus home to youre elders draining medicare and social security. He is a traitor to his oath in office and our constitution. Where life is a protecting he ignores.
Criminal negligence against the American people
This headline is garbage . He said it actually HAPPENED, not that that we should do it going forward. Why would you not be able to do better than this?
He was joking about the fake news you really are the EnemyOfThePeople corruptmedia
It was just a yoke. No one took it serious....
Sure doesn’t sounds like a wise-crack to me.
Human sacrifice for Trump’s re-election campaign. Impeach him again.
He should use NY rate of infection. It’s been consistently around 1%. He can have as much testing as he could, he’ll still get that rate.
Very stable and genius plan!

This is coming from a guy who told Americans to drink Clorax & didn’t wear protection with a Porn Star ! Sure let’s trust a clown
He is already responsible for about 80k needless deaths. And he’s doubling down for more...
Fake news run by the chinese
Idiot
I feel like this is easily provable true or false by the increase of tests by millions....
This is how he did business too; 'Why is this building costing so much?! Stop paying the contractors and the price will go down!!'
The media is the most dishonest group of people on the planet. It was clear to anyone with a brain it was a joke but at least he didn’t say “if you don’t vote for me you ain’t Black” 🙄
More tests should yield more positives, which would bring down the death rate... Yet our leaders will use it to enforce more lockdowns.
Trump understands his supporters are naive. So, he enlists his supporters to stand by his claim that testing is no longer needed. Today, they’ll be standing on corners wearing MAGMA hats, waiving Trump signs and yelling at the public that the virus is a fake.
MONSTER, MURDERER, MOLESTER 4 Seats to FlipTheSenateBlue Then TRUMP Will Be In PRISON WHERE HE BELONGS

Trump is so stupid. How has he lived this long? Where is Natual Selection to rid people like him?
Such a complete utter fool. A national and worldwide embarrassment
How badly the magic logic is
Mammy knows best!
No, he didn't suggest it, he SAID that he asked his staff to slow down testing.
Covidiot number 1. He's the reason wearing a mask is politicized by his 45Cult. Masks are the best way to reduce number of infected Americans .
UrsulaPerano Trump knows this is a created pandemic & that deaths are due to neglect & underlying health conditions from which the dead would have perished anyway, not the flu.
MoronInChief 🙈💩🤮
He's been saying this since that ship full of COVID patients was off the Pacific coast. Trump's Coronavirus strategy has always been to do nothing and brag about what a great job he's doing. That's his strategy for everything. Discouraging mask use is worse than doing nothing.
SocialistAct Gotta love THE MAN
I'm so sad for my acquaintances, friends, and family who fell for his rhetoric and blunt, southern style 'I'd have a beer with him' charm. I hope y'all know they regret it, many of them. Give them a chance to redeem themselves.
This man is against science, so as his supporters!
Muppet
Isn't this an admission of guilt, he admitted to negligence, and as a result of not testing and tracing quick enough over a hundred thousand people died. Someone arrest this man. Can I make a citizens arrest? realDonaldTrump maddow AngrierWHStaff AOC SpeakerPelosi

SernaLjsvirgo69 No! AP, he said he did it, not that he might do it. How about some honest fucking reporting. Prove you aren't the fake news.
He thinks he is a 'comedian'. Trump is a poor man's version of a 1960's Batman villian.
Comedian?
No, realDonaldTrump said that he had told them to slow down testing... as he admitted he didn’t want the numbers to keep going up. He said it. Televised. In front of an audience that, even thought they all had MAGA hats on, you could still feel them thinking... TrumpMeltdown
He either really doesn't understand anything or is intentionally trying to kill people. News flash - LOTS of Americans dying whether they are tested or not, means they still died of COVID-19.
BWheatnyc Do the same for on the job drug use, drunk driving, etc.
But yet he and his staff get regularly tested for Coronavirus! How sick,evil and criminal is that?😱
This guy doesn't have a fucking clue
AP plays its total BS to the gullible once again. So consistent
Trump is right.
Crazy Times
Newsflash: ppl won’t get better by getting tested nor will they end up dying if they’re sick and Covid not confirmed. Not sure why ppl are lining up to get a Q-Tip shoved up their nose. Take care of yourself like you would with the flu. 😉

When this pandemic reaches Spanish flu pandemic and black plague pandemic levels like those seen in our history books, we will know who to point the finger at.
That headline is false He said he “told his guys to slow down testing” Big difference
stupid Trump logic.
😡😡😡😡
Fcking liars again.
Wow... So don't you think he should be held responsible here when he is our POTUS and he is actively trying to keep people from being tested and treated?
When is this man going to learn that he cannot play with people lives that is why he is not getting re-elected instead he will be on his way out of the White House and Joe Biden will be on his way in to try and help this country get back on its feet
Yep that really happened...sad but true
Trump suggested as his rally that Swiss cheese could have less holes in it if only they..................
Deceiving Deceptive Devil Donald trump
And he doesn’t want that...
А вы как думаете?
'Tulsa gov Stitt initially invited Trump to tour the area, but said, “We talked to the African American community and they said it would not be a good idea, so we asked the president not to do that.” ___
We should be concerned with hospitalizations not infection numbers. Like how many people have colds vs how many end up with pneumonia.
And anyone listening could tell it was a joke. He has rightfully increased testing.
What is important here is that a statement from an authority as the leader of the free world, regarding a pandemic problem, is not and should not be in jest. Such comments could have far reaching consequences.
You people just don’t get jokes do you? Hahahaha (that’s a cue for laughter)
How do we isolate the positives cases of we don't know who they are? How do we protect the vunerable from positive cases if there isn't testing. You don't make sense.
Obvious sarcasm.
uhhh... he even tweeted this nonsense out. Trump’s idiotic statement is dangerous. Burying your head in the sand doesn’t make the pandemic disappear.
Testing is not by a federal institute, cant claim same security as cryptocomputing
In our President’s world it is better not to know...anything.
He is a danger to the citizens of the United States.
不用检，就没有了
hdevreij Have you no shame?
NO, HE WASN’T “JOKING”. You need serious deprograming if you believe he was “joking”. I pray for you, if you believe he was “joking”. “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
So less COVID19 testing would mean fewer positive cases reported, thus lowering their number and making him look like he's defeating the pandemic? Trump's logical thought process is dangerously impaired. IMO he is unwell and not fit to serve.
What in the actual fuck?
deejay90192 He didn’t “suggest” it. He said he did it. Huge difference AP
It was more of an anecdote on how he tried to slow testing down in February and March to keep the numbers down.
If you actually listened you would know he was joking to make a point. he made two points. 1. More tests/more positives 2. Press are truly idiots and Fake News. just going to call it how it is-The Press are just liars. I am starting to think they just don’t like our President.
Suggested?
no he didn’t suggest they stop counting he ordered them to stop counting makes a big difference!
Yes. Like I thought I was pregnant but didn’t get a test so now I’m not pregnant. That’s how it works right.
this is literally illegal. he’s holding us hostage and killing us for his re-election.
He’s doing the war crimes on us.

A lot of people trying to defend this man because it was “just a joke” he was being “sarcastic”. This is a serious issue that has killed people. Show some empathy and respect to those affected.

Do better . Trump said he told them to slow down testing.
He obviously wasn’t being serious
Trump hasn’t learned yet it’s better to thought a fool, then speak & remove all doubt. In the next 14-21 days, we should also find out how many attendees to Trump’s Tulsa ‘snake oil salesman show’ come down with the virus & spread it & die.
msue1000 He did not ‘suggest’ he said I told them to slow down and STOP the testing.

Imagine being his speech writer, having to write this 💩💩💩
GFL! Now explain the context post - your headline which is misleading
It’s called sarcasm you clowns.
This is a total admission to a dereliction of Duty unbelievable he must be removed he is a health threat to America and security risk at this point
So you just don’t want to know about it? It’s still going to be there and the hospitalizations will keep adding up
Cool. The virus has gone inert in most cases.
Well, all of that is probably true, so....
wow.,, i'm astounded by the amount of intelligence the leader of the free world has. seriously?! 🤮
Today June 20 and bunch of Trump supporters despite Coronavirus warnings as well Trump himself abusing public health advice gathering Ks and by next Fourth July will be 14 days incubation of virus and Watch how it manifest itself?
Holy crap.. it was dry humor.. feel bad for those who lost it
I actually have to listen to speeches because news misleads, even AP. The end point of his speech patter was pointing out that children, even if positive, are not as seriously sick. That he wants to open the schools in the Fall. Points out US had done 25 million tests.
Even if it was a joke it was unthinking and terrible. Over a 100,00 citizens have lost there lives to this virus. Fuck him.
Stable genius? I think not. More like unstable idiot.
Scary ....
Meaning He want hiding what Covid 19 doing to USA just like dictators doing to their nations His role model Putin Russia China etc
How dishonest can you be. Wtf
🤣🤣🤣 i laugh about the stupidity of your tweet.
🤦🏼♀️
He was kidding. You people are so dry.
I believe this headline is very very inaccurate. He did not say 'SHOULD'. could you guys correct your headline, please? Thank you.
SymoneTV Pretty sure this is being taken out of context.....
Just like Bolton and others have said, it only about him getting re-elected.
Wait ... what ?
So.....he doesn’t understand the concept of ContactTracing then🤔 Paging Dr. Fauci! Paging Dr. Fauci!
“Testing is a double-edged sword. We’ve tested now 25m people. It’s probably 20m people more than anybody else...GE, SK... When you’re testing to that extent you’re going to find more people. You’re going to find more cases. So I said to my people slow the testing down please.”
Same joint approach as UK Don’t count people tested count multiple tests. 20k people = 160k tests. Death numbers English 55476 =1017/m No1 USA 9th 367 /m, Ireland 12th 347/m and Brazil 17th 231/m. Data 16/3 to 14/6/20. Tory/SNP Plan Killing thousands. Worldmeter.
That is so dumb if you stop testing there will be no reports of infections' even a kid can understand that 🤔🤔🤔
This will be the last Trump supporter on the planet if they keep listening to Trump and no wearing masks or slowing down testing.
Nuremberg rallies with Nazi Trump at the podium have resumed.
And they applauded what he said. Most Americans are stupid but Republican Americans are just ignorant.
Just keep on twisting his words, you’ll only make a mockery of yourself
The guy is retarded I tell you 😂😂

I apologize to the world for the moron that we call a President. We got complacent. We took our RIGHT TO VOTE to mean that we didn't have to. We accepted that politicians lie to get into office but once there we would be told the truth.Trump is our curse for it. Sorry.
Trump didn't merely suggest this, he stated as a fact that he told his people to slow down the (Coronavirus) testing. Do better, AP. A fifth grader could report more accurately.
Idiot
well duh, that makes sense...
Never believed any of it in the first place
Yeah it’s called data. Science has a way of calculating things. Ignorance is not bliss in this case.
They put the most incompetent idiot in the White House for one reason, to help the richest loot the country so they can control the flow of financial wealth in America. They used racial divide and conquer to do it.
Guess where he learned that from, hint he recently had a state visit there.
Go ahead with that story. You prove him correct every time y’all are sick
It's a fucking super flu, I bet if Clinton was president yall would be screaming to reopen the country
You sure know how to spin
So when the check engine light comes on you should just unplug it and keep driving?
Trump and his cronies have a lot of blood on their hands.
Hahah
'Mom the AP is selling lies again' nationallies FakeNews
Why? So you can LIE and say your administration has done a great job of controlling the COVID infection rate?
It was obviously a joke, you morons! Posts like this AP crap make me ashamed I was ever liberal. Can't wait till BLM and Antifa start burning and shooting each other over who holds authority over marijuana distribution in CHOP/CHAZ/CRAP or whatever they call it, now.
Prevaricating isn't a good look on you, AP. Trump didn't 'suggest,' he stated outright, '...you're gonna find more cases. So I said to my people, 'slow the testing down please.''
Idiot. Dr. Fauci wouldn't approve of this.
Fake news!!!
Trumpism is not compatible with life.
He is definitely a stable genius! What a profound deduction! Is mind is super human. Slowing down testing to slow the spread. He should win some kind of metal for that.
That's what happens when faulty tests are distributed!!👌🏽🤔
So basically pretend that the 'crushed' virus is no longer there?
No, actually it was a joke and I hope realDonaldTrump sues every one of you dishonest, hateful, humorless media companies.
Is it any wonder the media had to tell their followers Trump’s tweet wasn’t real? They’ll believe anything, and they’ll believe this. The Left is as dumb as a box of rocks.
Trump thinks ducking his head in the sand makes things go away. Too bad it’s not true— We could duck and Trump would go away.
That commentary by the narcisstic sociopath just says it all.
I cannot imagine any former President of the United States ever speaking about a Hlobal Pandemic Virus like this. Irrational and irresponsible “leader”. VoteOutTheGOP
Trump needs to be omitted to the closest mental hospital.
Trump and Pence should stop their own personal daily Covid testing. SOB just cares about himself.
We're all going to die.
He didn’t say should slow down. He said he told them to do it. I’m sure they do what they’re told
As 50% of tests are yielding false positives, he should.
He absolutely did not say they should. He very directly said that he told them to slow down. It wasn’t a supposition, it was a direction. Don’t play nice with words for this idiot.
Smart?
Stop weighing yourselves, you won’t gain weight
You guys crack me up. You still haven’t figured him out but you don’t want to...these headlines is what you want.
Should slow down the issuance death certificate too
Yawn. Your taking jokes and making them serious is getting old and tired.
Trump didn't 'suggest,' he stated outright, '...you're gonna find more cases. So I said to my people, 'slow the testing down please.'' Please stop prevaricating , it erodes your credibility.
Fake News, not what he said or meant and you know it
Knew it. Everyone’s effing got it. They have been withholding testing up until now so of course there’s gonna be an increase of infected if we are already infected.
His math skillz are worse than my dog's.
Because the virus is less lethal after 'n' mutations. It's the flu. So report strep infections, hepatitis, flu, diabetes, pneumonia, COPD, asthma, measles ah crap I'm done here. There's no help for the media. They have been consumed by their focused hatred of POTUS and me.
He also said a year in jail if you burn the flag, life if you destroy a statue of George Washington. Good times, good times...
I’m surprised he didn’t suggest banning videos of police brutality because if we had less of those we’d have less reports of that too. This guys really knows how to solve problems.
No he didn’t you fake news. It was in humor. Good humor I might add! You know it! Pathetic you have to constantly lie!!!
He has to be a really special kind of stupid!
This is reprehensible!!
Did USA's collective IQ drop so low. There is no logic to this argument.
Bait, hook, line...
AP = Anti-trump Propaganda.
That's not what he said. He said clearly he SLOWED down testing.
Thank you. A headline that gets right to the issue.
If you just quit using trump’s own words, he stops sounding like an idiot.
🤦🏻
What an utterly stupid remark.
What will the Republican Senators say? I think they will be silent.
Oh so if you don test for covid-19 it magically dissapears. Ok I understand now. 🤔
Their theory is “if it isn’t written down, it didn’t happen!” And, regardless if it did — Rocko and Moose — will take care of it. They are from the Lower East Side Red Room, of the trump45pence Whitey House.
