That was last night."I don't believe you need 40,000 or 30,000 ventilators. You know, you go to major hospitals, sometimes they have 2 ventilators." -- Trump suggests Cuomo is exaggerating about the medical gear he needs to keep people alive pic.twitter.com/ADZb8fznOw— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) March 27, 2020
As usual with “this” General Motors, things just never seem to work out. They said they were going to give us 40,000 much needed Ventilators, “very quickly”. Now they are saying it will only be 6000, in late April, and they want top dollar. Always a mess with Mary B. Invoke “P”.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 27, 2020
This was this morning. "Invoke P"? He explained that:
Invoke “P” means Defense Production Act!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 27, 2020
But who is he talking to? He already signed the statement enacting the powers of the DPA. Does he think this tweet is the directive to GM to comply with that law? How? What do they do? Or did he know this last night, and was that why he told Hannity New York didn't need so many ventilators?
We have just purchased many Ventilators from some wonderful companies. Names and numbers will be announced later today!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 27, 2020
Nobody needs 'em, but praise us, we're gonna get 'em! Just can't say anything right now! Tune in tonight for the big reveal!!!!
Thousand of Federal Government (delivered) Ventilators found in New York storage. N.Y. must distribute NOW!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 27, 2020
So New York doesn't need them, but some (how many?) have been delivered and New York is hoarding them?
We are in the hands of a complete moron. And frankly, this is as scary as fuck:

Yeah, I know, we all hate "Big Oil." But fracking made domestic production possible and spared us some of the vagaries of the world oil market. Maybe that wasn't such a good thing, though, because it's the world market that's shutting down domestic oil production. Which will only lead to even more unemployment, btw, so factor that into the future. The scary part is Trump fails completely to understand that. IF the entire country could go back to work tomorrow without spreading disease like a wind blows leaves, the domestic oil industry would still be crashing because the cause is not people staying at home, the cause is Saudi Arabia fighting with Russia.
We are so completely screwed.
