Trump infamously said that if there were fewer Covid tests, there'd be fewer cases of Covid.
Turn out it doesn't work that way for Covid, or for other things.
Ignoring the truth doesn't change it.

Hate Crimes Reach The Highest Level In More Than A Decade
There were 7,759 reported hate crimes in the U.S. last year — the most in 12 years, the FBI reported this week. But some experts and advocacy groups say the true number is probably even higher.
The number of recorded bias incidents reported by the FBI was the highest since 2008, when 7,783 hate crimes were reported to the agency, federal data shows.
From the website of the FBI -
In 2020, 81 of 125 law enforcement agencies in AZ reported hate crime data.
In 2019, 92 of 125 LE agencies did so.
Yet, there was an increase in hate crimes reported.
In 2019, there were 209 reported, or 2.2717 per reporting agency -
In 2020, there were 282 reported, or 3.4815 per agency -
That's a 65% increase per reporting agency.
Not a good thing.
