Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, has been a loyal supporter of President Donald Trump, but he was critical of the administrations response to the ongoing public health crisis over novel coronavirus and its rollout of tests, saying it was "undoubtedly" too slow.
"There are areas in the public health crisis that I think the administration has done well," Cruz, who remains in self-quarantine due to the virus, told ABC News Live Friday evening. "There are areas where they have not done as well, and they need to do better."
"I think the rollout of the test was clearly problematic," he added. "There were mistakes in terms of the efficacy."
He later added that tests should have been delivered across the country "with speed and efficiency," and said that the "bureaucracy was a little bit slow in bringing the private sector into it."

(25,983 posts)The private sector trying to find a way to maximize profits off the sick and dying is a big part of the problem, jackass. We should have been using the WHO tests for weeks and months now.
Ted Cruz is an ineffectual idiot.
