Trump blames


Trump message: 


Who is at fault for the lack of supplies to deal with the virus? Someone else. 


Trump points at General Motors.


The discussion on CNBC is surprised and critical of Trump. The commentary is about GM being up and ready, the ventilators ready to be built, but that Trump and FEMA are attempting to do a late re-negotiation. Trump wants to present himself as the guy "strong-arming" GM.

This is pointless, they say, and it is an obvious attempt to shift blame to GM.


Yes, Trump is obviously shifting blame. That is the point. He is shifting blame. This works for him.

Stable Genius Prez says they should re-open their Lordstown plant. He should check the web:.

DETROIT – General Motors said it has sold its Lordstown Assembly plant in Ohio after idling the plant March 8. GM sold the 6.2 million-square-foot facility to an investment group called Lordstown Motors, which is backed by electric truck maker Workhorse Group.Nov 7, 2019

Curious - both plants in States that he needs to win in the Electoral College. You think there’s any other reason? Thinking. Thinking.

Ford and GM are not small contractors, cannot be bullied by Trump. They know Trump is notorious for refusing to pay the contractors who work for him, they won't start work until there is a signed contract and money paid up front.
