The orange fuckface keeps pointing to West Virginia in that it has no cases. How many people reading this have carried their glasses in their hands, their wallets in their hands or their car keys in their hands and forgot they were holding them? "Undetected" does not mean not there in regards to viruses or bacteria. One can touch something, or be around someone and not know they picked it up. LACK OF TESTING IN WEST VIRGINIA is why we don't know the true numbers in that state. And low numbers of what we have detected in other states cannot reflect accurate numbers without mass testing.
Ever step on gum, step on a tack or nail, or dog poo and only realize later that is what you did?
That is how fucked up is logic is. He doesn't care bout real numbers or facts. He doesn't want testing because he is selling "out of sight out of mind" bullshit.
Fair points. ‘No reported cases’ does not equal ‘no cases’. Without testing, there’s simply no way to know how many people are infected. And, since only people who show symptoms are likely to be tested in the first place, there could easily be hundreds of thousands of people who feel perfectly fine walking about spreading the virus.
Even so, Trump is looking at it the wrong way. No reported cases in West Virginia is just another way of saying that the virus is present in 98% of the US. Nothing to crow about.

I am also sick of the fucker claiming "nobody is to blame".
He isn't responsible for where the virus originated, no. But he most certainly is responsible for his lack of response once he knew.
What he did would be like if you called 9-1-1 to report a fire, and either the dispatcher or fire house said, "Meh, it's a hoax", or " we don't have many fires so this one cannot spread".
AND the fucker disbanded the Pandemic team in 2018.
Shit like this started long ago, even before he took office. The old GOP mantra of "less government" and "less taxes".
It is insane for that side to argue "less is always good". If one wants to argue what government should spend on, or how much to spend on, that is a valid argument. But the GOP basically wants our government to be run and owned solely by billionaires. The irony, because of their bullshit attitude of solely being concerned always about profits and nothing about government programs like the CDC/NIH, that mentality put us behind.
Now where are the airlines CEOs now? Where are the hospitality CEOs now? They are too fucking stupid to see that they fucked themselves by not caring about the rest of us long term.
