Some Democratic governors, including Laura Kelly of Kansas and Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, complained that their supply orders were purposely blocked by the White House. “Vendors with whom we had contracts are now being told not to send stuff to Michigan,” Whitmer said. “We’ve been told they’re going first to the federal government.” After Whitmer voiced her complaint on a Detroit radio station, Trump said at a press conference that he had instructed Vice President Pence, “Don’t call the woman in Michigan.”
