Yup. The systemic failures in the CDC, red tape, and faulty testing reagent was hardly Trump's fault and was also not something that could be fixed instantaneously.
As usual, most people don't understand that it "takes 9 months to make a baby". You just can't will resources and processes out of thin air. Ventilators don't make themselves, tests don't make themselves. But governors like Cuomo think that you can just throw some money at the problem and have the federal government mandate it into existence. Will Cuomo be advocating for less red tape and regulations that inhibit the design and manufacturing world in the future? Maybe it will knock some sense into them to not be bankrupt and actually have the means to procure these things on their own instead. Insanity that they just expect resources out of thin air to assemble RIGHT NOW.
They deserve to be harshly criticized when unintended consequences of their status quo policies pop up in their back yards and screech when it doesn't fix itself. It's a common thread sadly and I can confidently say that an event like this won't change anything with them and they'll just double down on it.

Yeah, the people who can't build an IKEA shelf without calling someone from TaskRabbit to do it for them are going to seize the means of production.
