Trump says Modi praises USA Covid testing |
US President Donald Trump has claimed that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has praised him for doing a great job in coronavirus testing, as he continued to slam his Democratic opponent Joe Biden for being a complete disaster in handling the swine flu during the previous administration. Speaking at an election rally in Reno, Nevada, Trump said, "By far, we`ve tested more people than India, than many, many big countries put together. India is second in coronavirus testing after the US. We`re 44 million tests ahead of India. They have 1.5 billion people. And Prime Minister Modi calls me and says, what a job you`ve done with testing." Trump said that Modi`s comment on testing being done by the US needed to be explained to the media, which is after him over his handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. He said, "I said, explain that to these dishonest people (media people) back (at the election rally). Biden`s record demonstrates that if he had been in charge, when the China virus arrived, hundreds of thousands of more Americans would have died. As vice president, he presided over the worst and the weakest and the slowest economic recovery, since the great depression." Trump said that he had spent the last four years bringing jobs back to America, securing borders, rebuilding the military and standing up to China, like never before.
