President Trump accused former President Barack Obama of making a “detrimental” decision during his time in office that led to the country’s short supply of test kits for the novel coronavirus.

“The Obama administration made a decision on testing that turned out to be very detrimental to what we’re doing and we undid that decision a few days ago so that the testing can take place in a much more accurate and rapid fashion,” the president said at the White House on Wednesday.

“That was a decision we disagreed with—I don’t think we would have made it—but for some reason it was made but we’ve undone that decision.”

Trump referred questions about his comments to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert Redfield who said that private labs were previously allowed to conduct clinical tests, but noted that “in the previous administration that became regulated. For someone to do that they had to file with the FDA.”

The Trump administration, which has been heavily criticized for its unprepared approach to fighting a domestic outbreak, claimed that it lifted the Obama-era regulation by permitting local labs over the weekend to create their own tests.

I follow this guy on FB... I understand why many people hate he blames people for everything... during the pandemic that is killing in thousands he is only accusing media up and down

one thing he and buhari have in common is blaming others for their mistake

I stand with America in this
trying moment and those who lost their love ones.
Because I'm by no means better than those who lost their lives to this virus. With tears in my eyes

One thing I know for sure is that the world will never remain the again after this pandemic.

#God bless federal Republic of Nigeria.
#God bless America

Trump don learn one thing from Baba Sala finally.

Lol.

What an idiot. He had three years to get ready after being briefed 10 times.

He's been blaming even Obama's mom for his toilet problems
The man is a master Bullshites Artist, a master gaslighter

How nah brother.


How

Always playing the blame game

The man is simply desperate for re-election.

Just listen to how stupide he sounds, blaming an innocent man for your own inefficiency.

He's always looking for who to blame. He failed Americans and should take responsibility.

Na the ibo god be this

And rightly so too

OBAMA PREDICTED PANDEMIC 5 YEARS AGO SO HE SHOULD HAVE PLANNED ADEQUATELY FOR IT AND NOT MAKE IT A BURDEN FOR TRUMP.

Just try to read and comprehend what you wrote and give yourself a score.

Some of you will blame Buhari for blaming GEJ but will be quick to praise Trump for doing same thing.

Talking about double standard and hypocrisy.

I SCORE MYSELF 100 percent. OBAMA SHOULD HAVE GIVEN TRUMP A FLAWLESS HANDOVER REPORT. GEJ DID FOR BUHARI BUT THE FULANIMAN THREW THE REPORT INTO THE DUSTBIN. WHAT ABOUT THE NC REPORT?

SMH.
Buhari is a failure no doubt but saying GEJ gave Buhari a flawless report is preposterous.
Can you help me post the documents he gave Buhari so I can read it?
Since you saw it I'd love to see it too so I can authenticate your claims.

OBAMA SHOULD BE BLAMED FOR EVERYTHING ABOUT CORONAVIRUS. HE PREDICTED CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC WOULD HAPPEN IN FIVE YEARS AND IT DID. HE IS A WITCH, A KENYA WITCH.
