A Month After Emergency Declaration, Trump's Promises Largely Unfulfilled

NPR's Investigations Team dug into each of the claims made from the podium that day. And rather than a sweeping national campaign of screening, drive-through sample collection and lab testing, it found a smattering of small pilot projects and aborted efforts.

In some cases, no action was taken at all.

We're screwed if we don't get a nationwide testing campaign going that's has a proper sampling rate

1. Trumpy will blame the media for making him look bad.

The media isn’t supposed to ask Trumpy about his failures. They’re supposed to treat every lie as truth. If they don’t, he accuses them of being fake. This is how it’s worked for four years. And every time, the media sources are shocked at Trumpy’s brazen bullying and lying. Oh, the undying gravitas...

3. Anyone who wants a test can get a test

Remember that one? That was early on in March. It was total, utter, pleasant-sounding bullshit then, and it's only gotten worse since Trump made that reckless statement.

4. Six Weeks Ago

I guess he forgot to add that he meant 6 years from now.
