DETROIT — President Donald Trump is falsely asserting how quickly automakers including GM, Ford and Tesla can manufacture ventilators to help fill an acute U.S. shortage of the medical equipment for coronavirus patients.
THE FACTS: No automaker is anywhere close to making medical gear such as ventilators and remain months away — if not longer. Nor do the car companies need the president’s permission to move forward. “When you are repurposing a factory, it really depends on how similar the new product is to the existing products in your product line,” said Kaitlin Wowak, a professor at the University of Notre Dame who focuses on industrial supply chains. “It’s going to be a substantial pivot to start producing an entirely different item.”
Ford, which also suspended factory production along with other automakers with operations in North America, confirmed that it too was in discussions with the Trump administration about helping, but had not started.
This didn’t age well
yepmeamalie Trump is not cranking out supplies or ventilators fast enough. He is complaining, getting upset, indignant, focusing on self, insulting, holding up progress, & being difficult. Move him out.
Current events wished let bet for real money like stock market.. Closed most future bets sites down for real money...
Think all 3 approved biggest winner 3 partnerships future bets current event stories...
Ventilators I don't know never researched Medtronic partner Tesla.. Future bets not for real money current events I probably bet Ford partner GE healthcare... Wait research Medtronic what they do as company over weekend..
Ima jus gonna leave this here... aight
You do realize that you have to make a lot of precise parts for these ventilators and then they have to be assembled, don’t you? Things like this take some time.
The Fact Check needs to be fact checked
Yahoo provider of Boo-Hoo wrong news !
Hello Mr. President, I am very sorry for what is happening in the country. Yes, Mr. President, I am writing to you. I need help. I am an American citizen. I have a protest.

actually this is false, Elon Musk with Tesla just delivered a bunch of Ventilators which Im sure the Americans who need them are greatful for having what they’ve produced so far.

Stop calling it 'fact check'. Call it a goddamn lie.
realDonaldTrump stop lying. GM and Ford ARE NOT PRODUCING VENTILATORS. It will take some time for them to ramp up production. A ventilator is not an auto or auto component.
I ain’t a trump supporter but...
If the Republicans were truly an American political party that valued the traditions and history of the US and our Constitution, they would, en masse, go to the WH and force Trump to resign. But that’s a scanerio for a Lifetime movie.

I thought Tesla had delivered ventilators already. Not at Trumps request, but on they’re own accord. Is that correct?
Fake News & Democrats say it can't be done! GM is working to support Ventec Life Systems to help increase its ventilator production. Ventec to build more of their critically important ventilators. This is a global effort to help address a global emergency. MAGA KAG

Stop your word play bullshit at a time like this. Yes GM and Ford said they are looking at producing/making these. It’s the same f...g thing! No one understood it as they made them magically.

The union workers said that he's outright lying the Chinese are actually making it them 24/7 and sending them to the United States
Its just another lie. Don't this guy know that he can't keep crying woof and expect people to believe him. Right now he's pissed because he can't fire nobody. He can't fire the doctors and nurses or the scientist.

Ford has no knowledge of any intention to, Per wife of plant Mgr today.
sheri_scary The moron doesn’t have a clue what it takes to make anything. Ventilators are precision devices that must be assembled in clean room conditions. A real president would create a team to coordinate this. Numerous companies could make the parts or subassemblies.

Trump thinks car a/c units are “ventilators.”
Mister_Woodo
WHO SAYS we are even likely to have a ventilator shortage? How many do we have? What is projected need and based on what data? Also, if y'all think we are likely to 9verwhelm the healthcare system w/ventilator patients, WHO do you think is going to take care of them?
Yes, it would take the auto Mfgs. quite some time to re-tool to build ventilators. We must understand that he churns things around in his delusional brain till in his mind they are true. Then those delusional thoughts come out unfiltered as he tries to bend peoples will to his.
He is a LIAR!

Umm pretty certain he never said Ford or GM. Also, GM is working directly with a company that makes ventilators, at least they both claim that to be the case. Tesla/SpaceX is working on this too.
they are going to have to try to share ventilators or invent new ones because some people don't survive the very first 12 hours of this virus
I watch everything President realDonaldTrump says and does, I miss nothing. He never said that.
Trump misspoke when he said ventilators. He actually meant RADIATORS.
This is like a war effort. Remember 'Rosy the Riveter?' All except the U.S. press and their acolytes are trying to pull together and look forward with hope. You really are the EnemyOfThePeople and the more people that realize it, the better things will be in the long run.
brianros1 Radiators, ventilators, car vents - what's the difference?
Tesla is starting later this week according to elonmusk
The fact that we constantly have to have asterisks to explain every sentence of his press conferences is insane. For that alone he should be impeached.
Figures. He embellished his story. I say, he lied
forakin Lmao. This must be his 20000th lie.
Exactly how does AP know the discussions Trump & leaders from Ford & GM have had? How does AP know if those CEOs haven't told Trump they could start immediately producing the parts needed for ventilators? .AP doesn't know!
It would have to have been many, many long months to able to acquire the machinery, tooling, materials, labor and operations in order to start making ventilators
Here's the problem, the media sent out crap when the president said Google was going to set up a site and it turned out that they were. FakeNews is so quick to jump on the president rather than support him and the country during this time of need.
He's desperate for anything to boost the stock market. Constant lying used to work.
More Trump lies. Expect no less from a habitual liar.

“Boeing is also making ventilators, tremendously beautiful ventilators. They’re electric. The run on US gas only. Beautiful US oil . Won’t take Iraqi oil cos they’re electric. They will have wings I think. “.
More lies by the minute
Oh look Trump making shit up again 🙃
You sound so happy!
This guy does not know truth
Fake news
The Coronavirus has done more for America than make Americans Sick or Kill us, it has shown the American People how Weak & Incompetent Donald Trump really is & how he is Not capable of adequately responding to a real Crisis! He Lies constantly & we cannot Trust him or his Staff!
ReignOfApril
You're lying
He should be put in jail for giving so much false information to the American public.
It would take those companies years of meetings to even begin to shoot down and fail miserably.
NEVER EVER did Trump say the Auto Industry 'is making them( ventilators) RIGHT NOW!!! YOU ARE A LIAR AND DISPICKABLE FOR THIS REPORTING.
HirokoTabuchi If they're thinking..they're making...
PaulLidicul
And who is surprised that this idiot exaggerated it? He always does. That's why he is a clear and present danger to this country and needs to be voted out in November!! WorstPresidentInHistory
MAGA 🤬
FAKE NEWS. TESLA IS ALMOST FINISHED MAKING ITS FIRST 1200 units.
He has to keep feeding his base and the GOP who will defend him til their death, literally. When will the Republicans realize trump is not up to the job and get him out of there?
He said they called and offered and they talked about a possibility he didn’t say they were doing it . Lying filthy yahoo
ZeldaBizarre Unless he’s reading from a teleprompter, even Trump has no idea what’s gonna fly out of his mouth.
Liar liar liar
WHY IS THIS MANIAC STILL IN OFFICE?
Oh yeah. Just what we need. A leader who blatantly lies even as we face the worst Health crisis we’ve seen in decades.
Art of the lie.
When you have no food in the house after Friday, No $, Unemployment office closed. SNAP closed. Pelosi built that.
Give you some knee pads and you could use your talents and be a ventilator.

This is not news.
RachaelAHancock Liar in Chief . Do not broadcast Trump Just the scientists

Does this man know what he’s talking about? Like ever?!?!
SylviaAndJolly Sick of Liar trump !! He's wanting Americans to die! He doesn't care and he continues to lie and he tried to cheat some money too. Omg, how much more can we take of Trumps poison!?
When are Trump’s supporters gonna realize this man lies for a living?
No more updates unless SpeakerPelosi there
Let Dr. Fauci do updates or Surgeon_General
It was an exaggeration, but y’all are being a bit nit picky here. Obvi it can’t start immediately because of logistics, but it seems to be in progress. And that’s coming from someone very critical of 45.
People that are still so petty...does that make you feel any better to continually spew negativity towards a guy that obviously isn't perfect? This an unprecedented situation only made worse by the ignorance.
gop realDonaldTrump conspiracytheories humptytrumpty spins, does nothing real, allows virus to hit liberal coasts, finally allowing help to flow to mid-American base. While big companies love capitalism and siphon billions on the way up, crying bailout without oversight now
He needs to STOP LYING!!! A lot of work has to be done including audits an certifications from various agencies to produce medical equipment.
SpicysFiles AP needs to talk to elonmusk
Fake news Reuters.
Last time I checked Tesla was a FCKN automaker.
Tang
Trump- GM and Ford are making Vendolators now GM & Ford:
He did not say they are doin the right now. He said they have offered and that they are in talks about ramping up production.
Trump is the liar-in-chief, and his lies are costing lives.
steffanwatkins He is such a liar.
Oh, so he lied again
Kris_Sacrebleu
Kris_Sacrebleu The post or tweet I read, said Ford and Tesla were making ventilators, masks, etc...
Wow
againstdotards Just another LIE 45 are you incapable of telling the truth....I think so. You are out of the WH 45 you have shot yourself in the foot. People need HOPE and not LIES.
This guy is a danger to us all. 25thAmendmentNow
Talk about the conservative ideology that requires the federal govt to do nothing and to let market forces handle it. People are dying to placate the conservative orthodoxy.
realDonaldTrump can’t help himself. It’s like he has Tourette’s. He just starts babbling and uninformed nonsense falls from his pie hole. His failure in leadership is SO far beyond my worst fears when he was “elected”. He’s breathtakingly incompetent.
Breaking News: Kushner and impeached realDonaldTrump are deadly liars. The intentional incompetency is deadly. They aint doing sh*t.
Two words: Bull and Shit.
Kris_Sacrebleu A global crisis is not the time to be fast and loose with the truth.
Its called design stage.. They are indeed making them, but medical specs and FDA must approve. You can't take patents and just go from there, you have 3rd party after market laws as well. So, he wasn't lying.
SenBillCassidy 👆
democracy_have CALL HIM OUT TO HIS FACE!!!
My son-in-law works for Ford. They have not started working on ventilators. Come on it takes time to do these things. No one should buy trump BS anymore.
I wonder if the News media in 1942 criticized President FDR when the auto industry was ramping up production of war machines.
Trump's lies are going to kill a lot of people.
The man continues to lie and harm America’s finest, the working force and their family!
joshibarrini This is why his broadcasts should betime delayed, fact checked and played later with the truth running below.
MarkGraban I think he's confusing heater units with ventilators, like himself they all blow hot air...
He’s letting people die with his lies!!! 25AmendmentNow
Everyone with a set of brain cells knows he is talking about gearing up. God the media really is fake news. The story is democrats putting poison pills in the bail out package
TrumpLiedPeopleDied
No he said they are converting to making these items. You are attempting to create more divide and wonder why we call you; THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!
ohchadwick 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Then how do you explain this?
And people are really surprised that he lied...again? 🙄🙄🙄 fauxhaircheetoinchief lies at least once every 5 minutes!! 🙄🙄🤥🤥
I am surprised people still think that trump will tell any truth . C’mon people it’s been 3.5 years. 🤦♀️🤦♀️ If this was a relationship, you would’ve broken up already
I think he meant they make ventilators everyday for cars not for this application and in theory easily transition. Let’s try to put out positive energy and no I’m not a trumper it’s just when every story is negative we will manifest negative outcomes. Send positive energy 😁
The only thing trump is making is a mess on the podium when he constantly has to dig his false teeth out of the water glass. What a putz.
Ironic that Trump is the one always spitting FakeNews
We’re not talking hubcaps, people. These are regulated medical devices that have to be manufactured under strict conditions and with tight regulatory scrutiny and approval. Not like an automobile. The level of ignorance is terrifying.
MarkGraban Maybe it was based off of this:
Quit spreading misonfomation. What are you doing to stop the spread?
Trump: Hope! What do we have to lose?! Media: Hope?! There can be no hope! Bc that wld mean Trump is reelected. So we're all gonna die and blame it on Trump. Me: 👍 Screw the media! Quarantine the media & watch 99% of the USA's problems go away! PelosiHatesAmericans
Donald is living in that fantasy world again he hears voices in his head
Wow! It's so unlike him to lie
ProgressiveEur
“Tesla set to build 1200 ventilators this week.” 🤔 “GM partners with Ventec to help them speed up production of ventilators.” 🧐
The only person worth listening to is Fauci. trump is all half-truths and lies!
WilySnowman Lead & close with truth to battle misinformation — do not include something that can be quoted verbatim as false
Lying trump strikes again... smh.
More Trump LIES and Fake News

thinojosa JFC, will some reporters please call him to the mat? This is an easy question back to him: GM and Ford have unequivocally said they are not currently making any medical gear, and it will be a minimum of a month or two before they can begin. Why did you state 'right now'?
thinojosa Months?! Wtf?!
More Trump lies.. surprise
STFU Yahoo
Why the hell is mr HUB standing there 😂🤷🏼♀️
Gee, what a surprise. He lied.
What is wrong with him ! ?
making ventilators ‘right now’ doesn’t necessarily mean ventilator parts are currently being manufactured It could simply mean those companies are getting licensing and shifting to the correct personnel and ordering materials Your Trump Derangement Syndrome needs meds, get help
Liar
In keeping with increased demand:
For years I’ve had to listen to Republicans crow “We need a businessman for President” Well you got him a failed leader running from responsibility from day one. God Send us someone to lead us thru this nightmare.🙏🏼
He himself is a public health risk. Get him out of there.
realDonaldTrump STOP LYING!!!
Tesla is an automaker and they’re making medical supplies. It didn’t take them months to retool and go.
Ford ain't and I should know seeing they have just laid me off for 4 weeks at their dagenham plant
LisaMightBeMe Is he too stupid to know that he can be fact checked in real time? Oh, I know. If he's contradicted, it's fake news!
President of Dangerous Lies
But they are working on it
holachola It’s not true !!! 😡😡
TrumpLiesPeopleDie TrumpLiedPeopleDied
Damn this is nuts
holachola
Ok. Ty
forgive_luv Trump gaslights the public every single day. It is more horrific than the lies and attacks at his fascist rallies. Now he does it daily instead of weekly. WakeUpToTrumpGaslighting FascistTrump
realDonaldTrump they are not making ventilators now. Why do you continue to lie?
Damn liar!!
Because they are currently what? Doing what they need to do in the plants to begin Manufacturing them.
He's just a businessman. You expect a businessman to run a country? Just to expand their own interests
Effing liar!
Duh, Ford and GM specializes in AUTOMOBILES, not MEDICAL LIFE SAVING EQUIPMENT, someone should tell the 🍊🤡 TrumpLiesAboutCoronavirus
You mean...... He LIED?!?🤥
he can't not stop lying ! I still have a hard time grasping that .
CatCorbitt No, Mr. President, investors in the stock market aren't falling for your desperate attempts to lie your way into a better economy.
i do think he understand it as radiators as mainly GM and Ford produce it in great numbers...so,yes,he is for real no clue at all...🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Why lie?
It takes 1 - 2 weeks factory downtime for an American automaker to switch over to a new car model. How long do you think it takes to move in new stamping tools and machine tools, to obtain the raw materials and reprogram the robots, to train the workers, to make a few prototypes?
MelaninMagic10 WELL IN THE MIRROR UNIVERSE THEY ARE 🖖
He speaks he lies 🤥🤥🤥
mymilieu Donald lies even when it means suffering and death. He's an evil sociopath.
realDonaldTrump Here’s another Trump’s lies. When are people going to be just a little smarter and realize this guy is a loser
mymilieu I think he meant radiators.
newsone MuteDonaldTrump
CarlForsling There are at least ten ventilator makers in America. A smart person would have given these companies the resources they need to ramp up production rather than having car makers make something they've never made.
V8 ventilator
He is well out of his depth. Jibbering gibbon.
Oh lying Yahoo. GM is making preparations to start manufacturing respirators. Yahoo doesn’t report on facts!
It would be more efficient if you just highlighted anything true that he says in these press conferences. Would also save you guys a lot of work
aravosis Trump's lies are becoming LETHAL.
Ignore Yahoo News. GM accepted the contract & Yahoo just looking to make it appear Trump is lying. Haters will Hate!
aravosis Conclusion: never, ever listen to Trump or read his Tweets. They are useless lies anyway. Why aggravate yourself or weigh yourself down with useless information? fakePOTUS
Toure Ohhhh damn, damn, damn....Another Trump WHOPPER!!!! Like 1700 Google Engineers working on a website!!!! Google immediately retracting that fabrication. It is going to take a Google Dept several weeks to rollout a website. The USA doesn’t have time for this Trump lying bullshit!
Help ask Trump, 'Why tell a lie?'
I think Trump speaks to his base, his die hard supporters who will definitely believe every word he says without fact-checking. Basically solidifying his base at every given opportunity irrespective of the damage and cost.
This is mean, monstrous and totally unacceptable. He wants people to 'think' it is happening, but not wanting it to happen. So he cares how people 'feel' without giving them what they 'need'.
LIAR-IN-CHIEF TrumpLiesAboutCoronavirus TrumpLiesPeopleDie TrumpLiesEverytimeHeSpeaks
neeratanden WW2 auto makers changed to making military VEHICLES instead of civilian VEHICLES. Changing from vehicles to computer based medical devices is a complete change in manufacturing. Common sense is dead.
aravosis Shocker - he lied
realDonaldTrump lies every second of every minute of every hour of every day of every week of every month of every year.
Isn't it a specific offence in the US for a government official (I'm assuming this includes the president) to lie to the public? If so what are they waiting for, get their disaster in chief out of office.
This headline is misleading and 100% positive the pussy wimps in the comments never opened it to read it
He lies and hates the media,how about if they stop covering him? I mean ,what was the last truth he said? What's the point? Let him talk to Fox and OANN...they believe him...
One day I fully expect him to claim he’s changed it so the sun rises in the West
neeratanden This should be your headlines on line!!!
neeratanden So let’s see if anyone asks this and gets an actual response that means anything. Those briefings are just sales pitches with no substance. The reporters should be getting concrete answers to questions
neeratanden 😡
Trump is incapable of telling the truth.
neeratanden Trump is a lying SOB. He knows full well that no automakers are changing production quickly enough to make ventilators. He is deliberately allowing market competition for existing equipment, knowing price gouging will occur and ppl will die. He enjoys pain of NY and WA.
LouisRBridgema3 I never believe him - I should know better. But my husband works in a hospital - so I wanted to believe this and I did. Should have known better.
neeratanden
BillinWV Why does he lie so much? Does he think we wont check?
ChristopherJM Musk tweeted yesterday Tesla had already produced many masks along with 1200 ventilators.
neeratanden DPANow
neeratanden Trump regularly states as fact that which he wants to be true.
If only Trump didn't bungle this and prepped for the months before March. Oh well! He failed and now we all pay. REMEMBER THIS IN NOVEMBER, INDIES.
Yes, it will be standard feature on all 2021 models 🚗
aquamajic do not watch the liar
Trumps imagination is very contaminated.
ChristopherJM realDonaldTrump is lying to the American public. He should NOT be allowed to address us at the TrumpVirus updates. DangerousDon
