Mike Pence Gaslights Cuomo's Request For Ventilators

Politics 3/24/20 10:46am Read time: 3 minute

Pence refused to answer Gov. Cuomo. Wow.
By John Amato

Earlier this morning Andrew Cuomo of New York demanded to know why the federal government is hoarding 20,000 ventilators in its stockpile and only sent 400, in what he characterized as a death sentence to many New Yorkers.

Your first priority is health. You have 20,000 ventilators in the stockpile. Release the ventilators to New York.'”

“How can we be in a situation where you can have New Yorkers possibly dying because they can’t get a ventilator, but a federal agency saying, I’m going to leave the ventilators in the stockpile?” he added. “I mean, have we really come to that point?”

During a Town Hall-type event on Fox News, host Bill Hemmer interviewed the supposed leader of the task force, Mike Pence.

Hemmer's first question was about Gov Cuomo's demand for thousands of stockpiled ventilators.

VP Pence then lectured Americans on how "they respond" to health crisis in America.

"It's locally executed, the healthcare workers and at time's law enforcement on the ground, community officials that are in the lead. It's state-managed, Bill. And then it's federally supported," Pence said.

1. The local guy acted and asked

When does the “and then it’s federally supported” part happen?

You know the point of the question? Oh but fox news so the only point was to give this soulless pos airtime.

4. they are lying again

FEMA is directed to help in geographical areas after hurricanes, fires etc. That is where "support" for local governments comes in.

This is a national disaster where FEMA plays just one part of what is needed. This involves all of our country's resources. They should not be allowed to get away with this justification for doing nothing.
