    1. If Trump does that California needs to withhold all payments to the federal govt. NY should do the same. We are giver states and quite frankly our leaders need to know and say it more.

    2. Seriously fuck trump at this point. He should of been in jail by now or been not able to run for office had Republicans just impeach him and gotten rid of him once and for all. Now he can be like this is my revenge because democrats held aid for fema to give to illegal immigrants when we know this is false.

      I’m getting so tired of that orange piece of shit. Blessed be the day he’s gone.

    4. Wait, wasn’t he accusing Biden of withholding aid from Georgia for political reasons as well (over the objection of Georgia’s governor, who said that was false)?

      And he’s getting cheered for… saying he’ll do the thing that’s evil when Biden does it?

    6. States rights though amirite? Oh wait that only applies when states want to violate human rights.

    7. California contributes way more to federal revenue than it takes, so probably a dumb idea Donnie…just like all your other dumb ideas.

    8. It makes some sense considering that wildfires don’t provide wildfire disaster relief and hurricanes don’t provide hurricane disaster relief.

      Trump is a disaster. It makes logical sense that Trump would similarly not provide Trump disaster relief.

    9. The fifth largest economy in the world will stop contributing to the welfare states of the South.

    10. HerCacklingStump on

      Can we Californians vote to leave the union if he wins? I’d rather not have my taxpayer money go to shithole red states anyway.

    11. This motherfucker makes my blood boil with this shit right after criticizing recent relief, accusing Biden of withholding aid from NC for political reasons, and all the other conspiracies.

      All while the current administration is giving funding to those who didn’t even want it last month. Fuck him to death. Fuck!

    12. This clip should be played in states recently hit by the hurricanes nonstop. “Fall in line under my administration or end up like California.”
