Sports radio giant Mike Francesa blasted President Trump on Monday, criticizing his administration's handling of the coronavirus outbreak and lack of medical equipment in the nation, according to Politico.
The radio host, who came out as a Trump advocate during his 2016 presidential campaign, accused him of not providing enough personal protective equipment, or PPE, to New York City, the epicenter of the U.S. outbreak.
"We're watching one thing happen in our city on the 11 o'clock news every night. We're watching people die, and now we know people who died. And we're not seeing one or two people die now in our neighborhood. We're seeing them die by the tens and twenties by the day," Francesa said.
Francesa referenced MyPillow founder Mike Lindell's appearance during the Monday Rose Garden news briefing, where he gave a speech telling Americans to focus on religion and encouraging people to "get back in the word, read our Bibles and spend time with our families."
Lindell previously pledged to manufacture masks and hospital gowns to donate to hospitals and medical facilities.
"So don't give me the MyPillow guy doing a song-and-dance up here on a Monday afternoon when people are dying in Queens," Francesa added. "Get the stuff made, get the stuff where it needs to go and get the boots on the ground! Treat this like the crisis it is!"

The guy needs to march on DaCommie’s office.
What’s a Mike Francesa? A fat, bloated, and mutated Jabba the Hutt character!
Sports radio?
Well that’s about to go bye bye.
Guy who talks sports...so I guess he knows everything.
Francesa is an arrogant, condescending, self-absorbed, liberal “man.” Had my fill of reading his trash a couple of decades ago.
You smell ozone?
Haters gotta hate.
I figured that by the way he was ranting.
I just asked my Hubby about him and he used the same exact adjective as you.
Sports radio giant is sort of an oxymoron anymore.
He really has no clue.
Seriously.
He's been talking sports all his life while his federal government has become corrupt and inefficient.
Well it's too late now, Mike. You should have been more vigilant, much sooner.
You are part of the problem.
Just another reason not to watch sports.the commentators are raving moonbats.I dont believe he was ever a Trump supporter.
Yep, I smell ozone...
Ain't THAT the truth !
I've never heard of the guy...
Can you understand that...??
I could careless about him...and you..fwiw-
open a window it can cause brain damage
you and your puissant friend take hike. I did nothing wrong except call out a guy who was showing his ignorance
Hello TDS, goodbye career.
Yep, fill the warehouses with a billion dollars of stuff that all expires in less than five years, just waiting, waiting, waiting for the black swan event in 10, 20, 50 or 100 years. Makes perfect sense.
Here’s one example (fortunately with a happy ending. 157 ventilators were shipped to California last week from some old federal depot where they had been stored for years and NOT ONE of them worked. Lots of parts just deteriorate in storage, rubber seals and o-rings dry out, calibrations go bad, electronics degrade, old software may not be available. Fortunately, the California company Bloom Energy (they make fuel cells) stepped up and is refurbishing all of the ventilators, so they will be in service shortly.
So, even if you had unlimited money, it makes ZERO sense to load up warehouses with stuff that wears out or chemical reagents that expire.
you show your ignorance You try to undercut the guy because you don’t know him He’s already hung himself, but you not knowing him shows you’re out of touch especially in sports.
