Trump had to have voter data shown to him to get him to release funding to wildfire victims in California. Only after learning Orange County was very Republican.

Most Republicans unironically think California is all Democrats

Utterly criminal and vile, so on brand.

Political affiliation should play no role in receiving federal aid after a disaster. Fortunately, OC is more purple than red these days!

Sadly, none of this is changing the mind of anyone planning on voting for him.

His base is proud of him for doing that. They’d rather millions of us die instead of voting for the wrong person.

Today all the conservative radio is complaining about the (Democratic President administration) federal government not providing enough aid to hurricane victims. Appalachia is Trump country. He only cares about those people making it to the polls.

The fact that the republican party still thinks this guy should be the next president makes me want to puke on the daily.

How is this not clear enough let; He will LITERALLY let you BURN if you are not a loud enough follower of his. These people are ghouls, and I am so very tired of treating anyone, with the same access to this information as us, that is willing to vote for him, as anything other than irredeemable morons.

How is it not a criminal act for president to withheld aid for those in need and release it only to serve his agenda? I guess in a functional gov, that person would have been impeached and place on trial. Except now that the GOP has get rid of all normalcies and will bend to whatever trump said

Everything with this piece of shit is purely transactional. He doesn’t care about anyone or anything, unless it’s money or power.

# Trump, in reversal, approves California wildfire aid
# Trump threatens to pull federal funding for California wildfires over ‘gross mismanagement’
>President Donald Trump woke up in Paris on Saturday in the mood to make threats toward California as it deals with deadly wildfires in Northern California and hundreds of smoldering homes in Southern California. In an angry tweet, the president threatened to pull federal funding for the state if nothing is done to “remedy” the situation.
# Trump administration rejects California’s disaster assistance request for wildfires
The Trump administration has rejected California’s request for a disaster declaration for six destructive wildfires that burned hundreds of thousands of acres across the state, including a massive central California wildfire that has become the single largest in state history.
>On Friday, Sept. 13, former president Donald Trump visited Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., where he held a news conference to discuss a land movement crisis the area had been experiencing.
>During his address, he said that, if elected, he would withhold federal aid for Californian wildfires if Governor Newsom did not change water policies. Trump said he wanted California to allow more water to be diverted to farmers rather than allowed to flow into the delta.
Trump: “Wait, democrats and republicans aren’t separated by states?”

And yet he lied about the federal support for Helene.. it’s almost as if he doesn’t care about human life unless it benefits him politically. Nah, surely that’s not the case. that sounds *awful.*
