REPORT: Trump Tried To WITHHOLD Disaster Aid From Victims Who Didn't Vote For Him

"As the death toll from Hurricane Helene surpasses 200 people and the Southeast continues to reel from the disaster, Donald Trump is working overtime to politicize the tragedy into an attack against his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris.

Despite governors from both political parties lauding of the Biden administration’s response, Trump is insisting the federal government has abandoned affected communities. "

Disaster relief should never be a political issue.

[maskedmarvyl]

You left out the part where Trump refused to help Democratic states during the covid pandemic, saying "Why should I help them? They didn't vote for me anyway". Look it up. He said that.

Jack Smith…The Greatest American Hero!!!

[Birchsongsltd]

I cannot wait until America flushes this turd.

[novitriolhere]

The Trump habit of taking credit for what he never did, and his ability to blame others for what he did is still astonishing, even though it shouldn't be. Maybe it's just hard for empaths to believe a human can be so callous.

What a pathetic, sad, petty little man, completely unqualified to run a hot dog stall, nevermind a country.

[karenlewis]

There are so many grifts you can't keep up with them....what a greedy 🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷

[Priss]

Republicans every accusation is an admission

Greg Abbot just did that after Hurricane Beryl in Texas, delayed the disaster declaration and a lot of ppl got denied aid .

[kevinstclair]

Whatever Trump accuses someone of doing, he's admitting that's what he does.

[kuruptzZz]

What sickens me most of all is half our country knows and likes this about him...

[biggiefries]

Amazing! Who would have thought a malignant narcissist would withhold disaster relief from people who didn't support him...

[leviashanken]

Dont forget his midhandling of Puerto Rico's hurricane. Oh wait - he threw them paper towels.

2018 camp fire survivor here. A lot of conservatives in the rural parts of California. 30, 000 of us lost our homes in that fire. Trump threatened to withhold aid, but did release it after a few days. He then traveled to California and called the town Pleasant instead of its name Paradise. Then told us that California needs to rake the forests.

[karen-ecyz]

People need to remember these things. This is making me crazy.

[jarm]

It’s depressing that the election is this close when Trump is such a monster. Says a lot about the level of education in our country

[danielpomeroy]

Omg when are trump supporters gonna wake up!! He doesn't give a damn about ANYONE but himself!! Time for America to turn the page!! Vote 💙💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌊🌊🌊

[peterhess]

This is a very, very sick man. I feel sorry for all those fools who vote for him thinking their little lives will somehow become better.

[HeisenbergCertainty]

During his term, Trump spent a lot of time verbally attacking California as they suffered through devastating wildfires. Remember, instead of offering support and condolences, he blamed California for not raking their forests?
