President Trump, widely criticized for his administration’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, tried to shift blame Friday to his predecessor’s handling of a health crisis 11 years ago.
In a series of tweets, Trump accused former President Barack Obama of making unspecified changes that “complicated” the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention’s testing system.
Trump falsely charged the Obama administration’s response to the H1N1 swine flu outbreak as a “full scale disaster, with thousands dying, and nothing meaningful done to fix the testing problem, until now.”
