Donald Trump denied disaster aid to four Democratic-led states in a move that is raising new questions about whether he’s injecting political motivations into emergency management decisions.
Trump on Friday rejected $227 million in aid requests from New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and Rhode Island for help recovering from a major snowstorm in February. Two days earlier, Trump approved Federal Emergency Management Agency disaster aid for six Republican-led states, while extolling the political virtues of GOP politicians and candidates in the states.

“raising new questions”?
Anyone with one working synapse knows that he is doing it for political reasons and for personal spite. Probably in the opposite order.
Isn’t it great that people in taker states can vote for a dickhead like Donnie so he can deny money to maker states on behalf of the rubes in taker states?
Why is Trump denying and approving aid in the first place though?
Because he micromanages. Because he’s using the powers of the office for his own personal motives. And being mean to him is enough to trigger a response because he has the mental capabilities of a 5-year old.
Look, there is no reason to insult 5 year olds that way. Come on man. They’re children.
Because he does what he wants and no one stops him, just like he will with his third term.
Yup. Every time I see someone ask how he does XYZ it just pisses me off. We should have revolted already, but nope we’ll just keep asking how.

They could do with a movement that took it’s name of this famous incident in Boston, where they refused to pay taxes on tea.
New questions?
Bah. Trash reporting.
Yeah these are very much not new and not questions. He’s weaponizing the government against Democratic Americans. Totally cool thing for a President to do.
Well, it is Politico.
