April 29, 2020 PROMISES KEPT: President Trump Delivers On Pledge to Increase Testing

President Trump ensured that no American who needed a ventilator went without one – and the media got the story horribly wrong.

Now, President Trump is keeping his promise to dramatically increase testing capacity and has marshalled the resources to do more testing than ever before:

As a result of these efforts, President Trump will supply every state with the testing supplies they need.

President Trump and his administration quickly built the world’s best testing system. Despite inheriting an outdated system from the previous administration, the U.S. is currently performing over 200,000 tests a day and has completed 5.4 million tests so far. In hotspots like New York City, the U.S. has conducted several times more tests per capita than South Korea.

If Democrats’ allies in the media had their way, you’d miss great news about the expansion of public-private partnerships to expand testing capacity, develop new tests, and get tests to the frontlines as soon as possible. The media’s failure to get the story right on the Trump Administration’s testing advancements doesn’t mean they’re not happening. Just like with the ventilators, the media is getting the facts wrong.

President Trump is using every tool in the toolbox to provide effective testing to all Americans, and he will do it while rebuilding the greatest economy the world has ever seen.
