Correct.

But he has such who told him about the coming pandemic, and he did
nothing but try to wish it away.

Very smart for you.

He finally is trying to get people to make PPE available to the front
line workers who are dealing with the pandemic.  He is trying get people
to make to get the much needed ventilators produced.  Whether he (or his
people) are doing those things in the best way is being questioned by
some.

Two navy hospital ships are on each coast to offer some relief to over
strained hospitals.  The army corp is building field hospitals quickly.

Just think how much better things would have been if he had those things
done even just 30 days earlier instead of waiting 70 days from his first
briefing on the coming pandemic to take it seriously.

Stay at home orders are helping flatten the curve on infections and
deaths -- but Trump has yet to even advise such a national directive
much less impose one.  The states without such directives may soon
become future hot spots.
