So he sent the National Guard to the Border, because we were in danger of an " invasion"

Now we have a real invasion and he won't get off his fat ass and do what needs to be done to protect us, when we have people dying. The Gov of NY is begging for help from the Army corp of engineers to build more hospital facilities. Trump says you are on your own when it comes to ventilators , and Cuomo needs to do more?

Testing is only the first half of it. We are in danger of overwhelming the hospital systems. Gov Cuomo said 80% of ICU beds in NY are currently occupied. That's why they need the Army Corp of Engineers to build out more. The asshat says, Cuomo needs to do better. No he needs to do better.
