to get manufacture of masks, gowns, ventilators because if people still die he feels he will be blamed. Now, by shifting *his* responsibilities to the states, it's "not his fault".

Where is the 25th amendment? Pence, of all people, can see that Trump's irresponsible behavior is costing American lives. Pence is, I think, the person who can put this all in motion. When will he do it?
