President Trump said the U.S. has enough COVID-19 test kits to begin reopening the economy. While taking to Twitter Tuesday, he noted that the mainstream media “does nothing but complain” even though the U.S. has more testing than any other country.

On Monday, the administration released a blueprint for the partnership between states, the federal government and the private sector to administer the tests.

President Trump said the nation is so well-equipped with testing that other world leaders are even turning to us for help.

“Other countries are calling to find out what are we doing…and we’re helping them,” he stated. “We’re dealing with a lot of countries, helping them with testing just like we did on the ventilators.”

The federal government is reportedly expected to send enough tests for all 50 states to test 2 percent of their populations per month.
