In an interview with Sean Hannity, the president again minimized the impact of the global coronavirus pandemic.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York says his state needs 30,000 ventilators to respond to the escalating coronavirus crisis.
President Donald Trump doesn’t believe him.
Speaking with Sean Hannity on Fox News on Thursday night, Trump again minimized the impact of the global coronavirus pandemic, casting doubt on the need for tens of thousands of ventilators for hospitals responding to the crisis.
“I have a feeling that a lot of the numbers that are being said in some areas are just bigger than they’re going to be,” he said. “I don’t believe you need 40,000 or 30,000 ventilators. You go into major hospitals sometimes, and they’ll have two ventilators. And now all of a sudden they’re saying, ‘Can we order 30,000 ventilators?’”

This is on every Republican leader who supported Trump thinking they could scam history & get what they wanted while supporting an unstable moron. It never works. Fools. Character is destiny. Now Trump’s character is your destiny. https://t.co/d3GDIFnP4P

If you're still supporting this guy while he does this, don't complain about the contempt you are sensing from the rest of us. https://t.co/nbxmR8kw2O
