President Trump, Gov. Cuomo continue to clash over N.Y. ventilator supply
OAN ^ | March 27, 2020 | OAN Newsroom

President Trump and New York’s governor have agreed that the hard-hit state needs extra help, but the amount of assistance is still up for debate. The president took to Twitter on Friday, where he announced “thousands of federal government-delivered ventilators” were found in New York storage.

He urged the state to distribute them right away.

“There is a smart way to do this,” he said. “Deploy the ventilators around the country as they are needed.”

This came after Governor Andrew Cuomo begged for more of the machines to fight the pandemic in his state. He feared New York was not equipped enough to combat an expected peak in cases.

(Failure to Prepare)

Gov. Andrew Cuomo and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio caught with their pants down.......(Gov. Hogan Slams NYC Mayor de Blasio...)

POTUS Trump, has managed to cut through the miles of Bureaucratic layers of mind boggling rules and regs that hinder our government and states as well to move needed items, supply's etc. to fight COVIID-19...some states are better prepared for unexpected catastrophes.....

Cuomo wanted Trump to release the entire national stockpile of ventilators to NY.

Cuomo wants them distibuted as needed and NY needs them now.

But if NY gets then now, they won’t be freed up for other states for months.

If Cuomo needs so many ventilators.....Why have we not completely quarantined NYC?

Why are we allowing NYC’er to travel all over the US infecting other people in FLA, NJ and RI?

Don’t serious times require serious measures?

New York doesn’t need them. The commie cough has a mortality rate lower then the flu if you go by the diamond princess and outbreaks in the United States.

Cuomo screwed up some years ago in being prepared.
Of course he is against the BSA and fracking.

Total looser.

Cuomo needs to get off his high horse and TV appearances rattling off data and projections and get busy leading his state out of this mess he's allowed to happen so severely. ....His whining and blaming is not helping New Yorkers, who are seeing US TaxPayers come to their rescue after their leaders have failed them.....yet again!

The only thing serious about Commie cough is the religious like hysteria pearl clutchers give to a virus with a lower mortality rate then the regular old flu. Its serious in that people will believe whatever they are told by their televisions. Scary.

Earlier this week, President Trump called out Governor Cuomo for passing up an opportunity to purchase 16,000 additional ventilators back in 2015. Reports revealed the governor was advised to make the purchase in order to prepare for a possible pandemic.

However, he opted out and decided to create a so-called “death panel” instead, which categorizes which patients need the machine the most. He has since asked for 30,000 more ventilators to prepare for a worst-case scenario as the state continues to suffer the deadliest outbreak yet.

well, well, well...

You know, Cuomo is nothing like his old man.

Mario Cuomo, despite being a liberal's liberal, was still a throwback Democrat, and in the 80s NY state was relatively sane.

Andrew though is just a total Douche Bag.

Cuomo was just safekeeping the ventilators in the Cuomo Family warehouse when they fell off the truck. He and DeBlasio don’t know anything about this.
