GM spokes Dan Flores explained that they have to secure parts and commitments for more, hire 1,000 workers, set up their Indiana plant for something they've never made before, and learn how to actually make them. He said they're working "around the clock," but it takes some time. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump praised GM today, saying "they're carrying out contracts to build ventilators, and they’ve started already." GM spokes says they're working at extraordinary speed to make this happen, but are "not making ventilators yet" -- it'll start in "probably the next couple weeks." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump was vague about what he meant by "started," so I'm providing the context: GM has certainly started this process, but they haven't started actually producing the machines. https://t.co/nhR15msfVO — PolitiTweet.org

@ddale8 So they have started making ventilators. Procuring, training, and planning are part of making ventilators.
