Mary Barra needs to go. Does she not get that building the ventilators is a massive public relations win for her? She should be on TV with a commercial ASAP showing them being produced. This gender token must be fired.

LMAO @ FAQmd it’s spelled Baboon* with an N, “Boo” is what local gov officials are saying when you’ve got an idiot in chief who brushed this off months ago as something that was “no big deal”, “nothing serious”, or will “WASH away”, and now he’s scrambling.

LMAO @agent009 no no no, let me correct you, childish is how your president reacts every time something doesn’t go his way, throwing a tantrum on Twitter...calling names...and disrespecting the very people he should be working with...

I see why so many of his companies have failed, he’s a horrible business man, Trump Airlines, Casinos, Magazine, Liqour, Steaks, University and more didn’t stand a chance with him at the helm.

Car4Life1 also doesn't know that you can take a company through bankruptcy and (1) save the company and (2) make it a whole lot of money in the process.

Loser4life1 is a butt hurting classless asshole with severe Trump derangement issues. Yes Trump had a few BKs and over 500 successful businesses, JV's, licensing deals and many of the BKs Loser likes to rant about were licensing deals in name only or is that to complicated for you to digest? Yup his casinos and airlines went tits up but those are brutally hard industries littered with more bodies than successes and happened during the 80's that took down the Reichmans much harder and many other huge conglomerates.

Isn't it rich and pathetic how the lefty assholes like to dump on Melania whom is self made, speaks 5 languages fluently and does a shitload of charitable work but heaven forbid -posed nude. Oh the shame! If she was a dummycrat they would sing her praise for being so empowering to the feminine movement like their false god Hillary whom should be jailed with serial rapist Bill -the great Haitian swindler. Fucking pathetic.

LMAO @ Queasyfla1, speaking of “tits up” Melania showing hers everywhere doesn’t make her self made, it makes her the bimbo that saw nothing but a check in Trump. She can’t stand the look of him, brushing his hand away every time he attempts to make them appear in love like the Obamas. Maybe if one of those languages she spoke was English, she wouldn’t have had to steal Michelle Obama’s speech HAHAHA

Speaking of self made, Michelle Obama, the highest educated 1st lady in this country’s history, coming from a working class background, instead of showing her tits and stealing speeches, she went to Harvard and got a law degree

Agent 009 - Yes you are correct that the current supplies and production of Ventilators was geared toward the need BEFORE the pandemic - and market forces being what they were - we really did not have major capacity to greatly increase production - because that is how the American Economy works - supply and demand. Hospitals were merging and combining at a rapid pace before this year- leaving lots of used supplies as they closed Hospitals all over the country.

However -Ventilators do not really have a QUICK shelf life (Many are still working after 20 years) - My company both repairs them - and Re-manufactures them for sale as well as selling new ones. THe only "new" ones we produced were for a special use for a single(Admittedly huge) customer until this February. And though We bought up lots of cores to be rebuilt - the fact is - I had almost a 7 year supply of them - and I would not have kept that many if I had not bought them at an advantageous price.

Gm, Ford, and FCA all were in the process of plans to produce more before Trump invoked the war powers act - but these will be a one time shot to the market - and I would expect the next few years will have very few sell - because of the glut there is going to be. And with the glut - you can expect not only poor sales after the pandemic runs its course - but also less repairs - since they will simply more on to another one from the pile of extras.

However - on average - there is about 160 parts in today's Ventilators - that come from 14 different countries - most parts are not even produced in the USA - and in order to ramp up production for them - you will need to "create" relationships with lots of corporations outside the USA - a lot of them in China - and If you do not have the good relationship - you won't get the parts because they can sell them elsewhere right now. Trumps tirades on the CHINESE VIRUS will be an obstacle that money might not overcome - for instance.

My biggest concern never mentioned - is large portions of the Upper Northwest have not only a severe shortage of Medical Facilities - but it is not unusual for towns to have built a Hospital - but they don't have a doctor in the town. The shortage of medical personnel - related directly to earnings (Which are low because of fewer patients on Private Insurance policies) - Doctors often cannot pay off their College Loans with the Money they can make in these areas. In a pandemic - this is death sentence to a lot of people if the virus gets there.

The ventilator reserves are for normal situations not a pandemic. They have a shelf life. The protective masks were depleted in 2009 in the H1H1 outbreak. The Obama administration never replenished them. BUT neither did the Trump Administration. In both case health officials should have made a stand to persuade action.

This is just my opinion, but companies fear public humiliation and ridicule on social media more than a newspaper story or local news piece. Because it has a was of damaging their image if it goes viral. So these companies go into panic and action mode QUICKER, than if some magazine publishes a story.

Total failure of leadership by trump, again. Why, just 4 weeks ago he said he has it completely under control, there are only 15 cases in the US. By next week it will be down to two and then gone. Swing and a miss. The main reason the US has the most cases in the word now is the delay in responding and lack of any coordination at the federal level.
The trump uses his usual tactic of blaming everyone else. Fail. Big Fail.
Want more? He closed 29 CDC office around the world which would have helped identify viruses early and coordinate response. he closed the pandemic response team at Homeland Security because he is stupid.
