Biden: Trump testing promise a 'baldfaced' lie
Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in a new op-ed is calling President Trump's claims that coronavirus testing would be available to all Americans a "baldfaced lie."
"It's been more than two months since Trump claimed that 'anybody that wants a test can get a test.' It was a baldfaced lie when he said it, and it still isn't remotely true," the former vice president wrote in The Washington Post. "If we're going to have thriving workplaces, restaurants, stores and parks, we need widespread testing. Trump can't seem to provide it - to say nothing of worker safety protocols, consistent health guidelines or clear federal leadership to coordinate a responsible reopening."
The former also noted reports that the White House has implemented daily testing for the president and his staff.
"They knew exactly how to make the Oval Office safe and operational, and they put in the work to do it," he wrote. "They just haven't put in that same work for the rest of us. If Trump and his team understand how critical testing is to their safety - and they seem to, given their own behavior - why are they insisting that it's unnecessary for the American people?"
