Trump is doing a good job here, just watch, He will come out looking real good. Aside from this, I was at Costco this morning, Tons of TP, and water! American Companies are really stepping up to provide products as they are needed!! Why is the "Left" always bashing business?? with out businesses, none of us would have a job.
Okay, I will continue watching. I have backpacked so I know that what is heavy but am curious how many rolls of TP does it take to make a ton? guessing around 2000.  |

The current administration should know, right. When you disband something you make sure things are disbursed the way they should be. Thanks OC for pointing the blame in the right direction Where are the emergency supplies?? There should have been millions of everything, after all wasn't that their job?? If it had been distributed as you say, there should have been tons of it to go around!!! Where is it?? Or ,,,, you don't suppose that the Obama super boy didn't do his job??
Nice try, Trump is in charge, so either they didn’t stockpile, lost them, sold them, gave them to their buddies, or stole them, it’s the 4th year of the trump administration. Time to put on big boy pants and take responsibility. The exact group we need right now was disbanded by him. Good work |

I have honestly never seen anyone so dedicated to making himself look like an idiot every time we see him. Kudos are warranted. |

OC's trying to steer the attention away from trump for his miserable and belated response to the pandemic. The pandemic belongs solely to trump. Everyone should ignore anything OC posts from this point on. OK where are the supplies?? Go verify they didn't end up at Mar-a-Lago or sold for pennies in the dollar to pay for the golf trips a certain person couldn't do withouy |

He got rid of their non productive butts!! And then what? Removed some of the dead weight left over from the Obama blotted government. If they had done their job, Maybe thing might have been a little better now, But we seem to have those Obama leftovers that try to hinder trump at every turn! Hmmm, how many of the leftover Obama FBI people that tried to go beyond the law, to get trump,, what happened to them?? unfortunately they are not in jail yet!

Still with this. Tell me again, when will anything be Trump’s responsibility, after he left the White House. He ha been president for over 3 years. He owns this, it doesn’t matter what went on before, it’s happened on his watch. Have to give you credit for your consistency. Incredibly wrong, but consistent

Trump fired the people who were supposed to deal with this sort of thing in 2018. He considered them ‘dead weight’ because there was not a problem. Do maybe you think that he now realizes why they were important to keep around? It would probably be a moot point though, considering Trump’s intelligence was telling him that there was a problem in China in Dec. and he blew them off. |

Or else there would have been millions of masks, respirators, ventilators stockpiled,,, except, Obama was not the one that fired them, now was he?? Trump did it right!!

So the answer is in 3 years he did nothing to actually fix the problem. He stripped the department bare & then left it bare for THREE years. Did NOTHING to improve or fix the problem. Instead he ignored it until the shit hit the fan. He lied and Americans died and continue to die.

So, trump should not do better than the previous administration. So he’s just as incompetent, since that’s what you are implying |

WASHINGTON — President Trump says the federal government has stockpiled “massive numbers of ventilators” and “tremendous amounts of equipment” to help hospitals respond to a crush of seriously ill coronavirus patients. The problem, experts say, is that the government’s cache of supplies probably won’t be nearly enough to satisfy the demand. That’s because its stockpile was designed to be a temporary lifeline to healthcare workers in a particular place or region, until they can get more equipment and medicine from the private sector — not to provide all the gear they need, and to caregivers nationwide, simultaneously. Vice President Mike Pence disclosed Wednesday that the stockpile has more than 10,000 ventilators, mechanical devices that have proved critical in keeping alive those with acute respiratory infections. Assuming that the cache fall short of demand, federal officials will face difficult decisions on how to parcel out such critical supplies, experts said. www.latimes.com/politics/story/2020-03-18/government-stockpiles-ventilatorsThe stockpile was started in 1999 primarily to prepare for attacks against Americans using weapons of mass destruction. Once an obscure government initiative, it has been shoved into the spotlight as state officials and hospital administrators search for every available breathing machine ahead of the expected wave of hospitalizations as U.S. coronavirus cases crested 50,000 on Tuesday with no signs of slowing. Still, the totals of ventilators ticked up, to more than 8,000 in 2010 and eventually the 16,600 that are in the stockpile now, Amber Dukes, a health communications specialist who works in the stockpile’s operations branch at HHS, said in an email. Like many details of the stockpile, the total number of ventilators has been the subject of secrecy recently, as officials point to national security concerns over letting the public know the total figure. publicintegrity.org/health/coronavirus-and-inequality/the-governments-secret-ventilator-stockpile-is-nowhere-near-enough-to-fight-the-coronavirus/ The agency said its pandemic planning assumptions estimate the U.S. health-care system will need up to 3.5 billion N95 respirator masks over a year. The Strategic National Stockpile, the nation’s emergency stockpile of drugs and medical supplies, c urrently holds approximately 12 million medical-grade N95 respirator masks and 30 million surgical face masks, according to an HHS spokesperson. That’s a small fraction of the number of masks needed in a pandemic scenario. So-called N95 masks are preferred by medical professionals because they filter out about 95% of all liquid or airborne particles. There ARE millions of masks you orange troll! Can you not fucking read?!?

If Obama was incompetent, and trump has not done any better than Obama, then trump is incompetent. He has not done the job of supplying needed equipment, an issue you continue to criticize Obama for. Logic, learn it, it can be your friend |
