It's worth reading the article. The subtitle adds a bit of necessary context:
> The Silicon Valley engineer, who had no background in medical supplies but was recommended by the White House, never delivered the ventilators.
The article has a direct quote:
> “The guy was recommended to us by the White House coronavirus task force because they were doing business with him as well,” said the New York state official.
I don't think the state government expected that the White House would recommend a scammer.
- dantheman 6y agoReally, the state government that thinks these people are criminals and frauds? Remember NYC has known trump and his ilk for a long time.
- bathtub365 6y agoWhy are you letting the federal government off the hook and blaming the victim?
- dantheman 6y agoHolding people responsible for their decisions isn't blaming the victim. This is their job. They failed at it. NY keeps making bad decisions and then blaming the federal government -- they take credit but push off blame/responsibility. I'm not happy with how my government is handling this.
