Pres Trump: "Testing is a local thing...It's very important. It's great. But it's a local thing."
He said states can't have it "both ways." They can't want help with testing and want control over when to re-open.
Trump last month: "Anybody that wants a test can get a test."

(31,507 posts)1. Trump is setting the stage to wash his hands of Covid-19 pandemic.
He'll say that he (federal government) has done his part and now it's up to the states to deal with it. All he needs is a Mission Accomplished banner.

He has generated a number of conflicting statements that appear to be available for cherry picking by his campaign and the RW Pravda later on, no matter how this goes or turns out. It will be an editor's dream come true for spots proving he was right, etc.
That's a strategy, but confusing people is also conditioning them at that scale.

As a way to blackmail Governors. Nice state you got there. Be a shame if something happened to it.
