    Michigan governor says vendors ‘being told not to send stuff’ to her state — after Trump bashed her

    Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Friday made a startling claim that medical supply vendors are “being told” to avoid sending badly needed gear to her state in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic.

    “What I’ve gotten back is that vendors with whom we’ve procured contracts — they’re being told not to send stuff to Michigan,” she said.

    “It’s really concerning, I reached out to the White House last night and asked for a phone call with the president.”

    At the time that she called the White House,

    Trump was attacking her during an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity,
    in which

    the president accused her of being insufficiently grateful for his assistance.

    “We’ve had a big problem with the young — a woman governor,”

    “You know who I’m talking about — from Michigan.

    We don’t like to see the complaints.

    Now, she wants a declaration of emergency, and, you know,

    we’ll have to make a decision on that.

    But Michigan is a very important state.

    I love the people of Michigan.”

    Every state is going to need all of theirs.

    & it turns out Cuomo has them, but, HE won't distribute them. It's just how all Americans move about in a situation like this. "I'll keep them until we REALLY NEED THEM, but, in the mean time I'll try and procure/SNEAK a few more from somebody else." He wants to feel that security of having a reserve.

    It's human.

    It was 78K votes total across MI, PA, WI that gave the electoral edge to Trash, and that Pootin/Comey pushed away from Hillary and towards Trash.

    I can't find it now, but Trash trails Biden and Bernie in all three states.

    ting on Michigan's governor will make for more slam dunk campaign ads. Trumps lawyers are gonna need a lot more cease and desist orders. (yeah, he is trying to stop campaign ads already)

    Trump can force them to basically churn them out via the Defense Production Act, right?

    He can, but he won't. "war time" president that won't make wartime decisions.

    Tone at the top.

    Detected cases are higher in blue states, but growing faster in red states.

    Trump the human dildo says yesterday we don’t need all these ventilators and today gets called out by GM for giving incompetent demands so then he enacts the war time act to manufacturer ventilators. Is this some kind of really bad black comedy farce?

    he won't do it (except maybe on twitter) because ideologically the govt telling BigCorp what to do is socialism,

    but the Repugs support BigCorp telling govt what to do is ok, it's oligarchical Capitalism (and the voters)

    Oh, I'm sure that will go over like a fart in church at GM. It was going to take them months to voluntarily switch over. Now since they're being forced to switch over it will be take them months.
