WASHINGTON/DETROIT (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday invoked emergency powers to require General Motors Co (GM.N) to build much-needed ventilators for coronavirus patients after he accused the largest U.S. automaker of “wasting time” during negotiations.

"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
I doubt GM is going to do it at all. That lying prick Trump said a couple of days ago that GM was cranking out respirators. I understand Trump has no idea how long it takes a big company to get started on a project like this. He has no knowledge base., https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...tages-of-parts

Where did Trump say GM was cranking out respirators? He said they were wasting time with contractual give-and-take instead of tooling up to produce them. It would pay you to read your own link
Since GM was paired with a company who produces ventilators and GM has the tooling capacity to manufacture them as well, why not make them produce them too? After all, wasn't it the government that bailed them out of bankruptcy?
Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.
Capitalism's sicknesses turn to Socialism's remedies.

At a news conference Saturday, Trump singled out GM and Ford as among the many businesses that have asked to start making medical gear like ventilators.
“Nobody’s ever heard of a thing like that. With that being said, General Motors, Ford, so many companies ... these companies are making them right now," Trump said.

GM was not making them. Trump was "mistaken".

Trump declared on March 21 that GM along with Ventec we’re making ventilators and they would be ready in a week, obviously they weren’t. GM wasn’t making ventilators, they were exploring the idea if it were was feasible and stated it would be June or July before they could begin production.

I was only answering his question.
You'd think they would have learned by now that the probability that any particular assertion that Trump lied is readily documentable is extremely high.
Hell I could probably make up from whole cloth random reprehensible statements and half the time he already said them.
