Via NPR Fresh Air: Trump made clear, the lower the coronavirus numbers, the better for re-election

A previous tweet of this quote did not make it adequately clear that it is Trump who did not push for adequate testing, not Secretary of Health and Human Services Azar. Here is the whole quote for context.

I was arguing with some Trumper on Reddit earlier today over an article saying that Trump should resign due to his disgraceful handling of CV19 and he/she threw numbers at me about H1N1 and the number of cases and deaths from that and why didn't President Obama resign back then and then stated that it was all political. From all that I can even remember, President Obama handled that crisis so well, I don't frankly even remember much about it. I can't recall anytime we had to close or cancel anything back then because it never ended up getting out of hand. I can't blame Trump for the existence of the virus, only how he has handled it to date and we can all agree that it's been abysmal.
