Trump on Fox right now blaming Cuomo for not ordering ventilators in 2015, citing a piece by Betsy McCaughey - former GOP LtGov of NY.

Whoever called "he's prepping to blame Cuomo," collect your winnings





What a liar and sociopath Trump is. Cuomo would be a trillion times better as President.

... dismantled much of our pandemic response capabilities in 2016-2018? You know, in the name of being fucking prepared. And here I thought Trump was a genius.

The State’s current approach to stockpiling a limited number of ventilators balances the need to prepare for a potential pandemic against the need to maintain adequate funding for current and ongoing health care expenses. Furthermore, severe staffing shortages are anticipated, and purchasing additional ventilators beyond a threshold will not save additional lives, because there will not be a sufficient number of trained staff to operate them. In the event of an overwhelming burden on the health care system, New York will not have sufficient ventilators to meet critical care needs despite its emergency stockpile. If the most severe forecast becomes a reality, New York State and the rest of the country will need to allocate ventilators and other scarce resources.
