-Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the attic.

As many of you know, I've been doing the show from home

轉承詞

and they come in three different varieties --

And, yeah, I'm aware that this makes me, as the kids say,

"basic," but in fairness, I've been slightly distracted

from wardrobe questions by the fact that there are wasps --

here's one zipping by during Tuesday's monologue.

But don't worry. That's not just any wasp.

That's Nick, our segue-writing wasp, and speaking of segues,

the White House is calling their response

to the coronavirus pandemic a success story

even as the country passes grim new milestones.

For more on this, it's time for "A Closer Look."

We've now surpassed one million coronavirus cases

and 60,000 deaths in the span of about two months.

Now, regardless of where you stand politically,

that's a staggering heartbreaking number,

at the end of his press conference on Monday,

-If an American President loses more Americans

than died in the entirety of the Vietnam War,

but if you look at what original projections were,

We're probably heading to 60,000, 70,000.

It's far too many, one person is too many for this,

and I think we've made a lot of really good decisions.

I think we've made a lot of good decisions.

I think that Mike Pence and the task force

I think that everybody working on the ventilators,

you see what we've done there, have done unbelievable.

The press doesn't talk about ventilators anymore.

They just don't want to talk about them, and that's okay.

But the reason they don't want to talk --

That was the subject that nobody would get off of.

-Oh, boy. He should not have taken one more question

because that was a brutal way to end a press conference.

in the Fox News control room, they basically said,

"Quick, cut to an Acorn stair lift commercial.

Trump must have been kicking himself for taking one more.

That was like that moment you start talking smack

"Yeah, I'll grab another block with one eye shut. Oh [bleep]"

the word "Vietnam," he probably thought to himself,

"Vietnam, am I going to have to dodge you again?"

He's so bummed you can't use make-believe bone spurs

[ As Trump ] I'd love to give you an answer,

back again, so I'm going to have to call it a day.

the press doesn't want to talk about ventilators.

Nobody wants to talk about a critical shortage

The reason it was such a hot topic for a while

was because everyone was afraid we were going to run out.

Thanks to Americans staying home to flatten the curve

and states sharing equipment with each other,

You're like the mayor showing up at the end of "Jaws" saying,

doesn't want to talk about sharks anymore?

'Cause I'm the mayor and I'm still a big shot in this town.

If we're not talking about sharks, let me know."

In fact, here's how unhelpful the president was

when it came to procuring much needed ventilators for states.

BuzzFeed News reported Wednesday night that a random dude

tweeted at Trump that he could make ventilators,

get a lucrative contract to make ventilators,

On March 27th, Trump posted on twitter to urge Ford

and General Motors to start making ventilators now.

One of the thousands of replies that the tweet attracted

"We can supply ICU ventilators, invasive and non-invasive.

Its author was an electrical engineer in Silicon Valley.
