What a great hospital to be so prepared that they staff NINE different language translators. Pretty cool!

"If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that's what I'm going to do." -JD Vance after making up a story about immigrants eating dogs and putting lives in danger

We all know that his kid isn't going to the local ER when the kid flies on Marine 2 for golf lessons.

I work in a hospital, my hospital was built many decades ago, and is totally out of date, and even we have translators on monitors that pop up, FROM dozens of languages around the world. He is a straight up liar.

That’s not how that works. Translator budget and Physician budget are 2 different budgets, one does not effect the other.

The first sign that this was a lie was JD Vance was talking. The second sign was him saying HE, not his wife, took care of his kids. This is before a ER having 9 translators on staff just sitting there.

I’m wondering if his wife is bilingual. He seems to be like his boss in lies.

From what I've heard, his book is full of these kind of claims. I know he has made claims about seeing people buy steak and lobster on food stamps and the pull out a wad of cash to buy cigarettes and booze.

It’s not a translator, it’s an interpreter

I went to the ER in a community where the majority of the population is Asian, 51% white population was around 20%. Where 45% of people reported Vietnamese ancestry and 20% reported Mexican ancestry and there weren’t any translators. They just hire bilingual people to work at hospitals when possible.

What a joke. Translators aren’t just sitting out there, lined up, in the waiting room with a sign saying what language they speak. 🙄.

It’s one machine with a virtual translator, and they are in many ERs and we call ours the Green Machine, it has a menu of language options

If Vance spoke English, he’d know it’s “fewer translators”, not “less translators.”
