he also screwed the states by making them responsible for $100 of the $400 total. Typical Trump.

He is stealing the money from the FEMA budget as we enter hurricane season. That's how thieves roll.

Maybe he should tell people that IF they get the money, they better save it for their next disaster.

The suites filed against that royal decree may put sand in those gears.

He’s being told by his minions that he’s got less than 90 days to make himself look redeemable.

Too little. Too late. Desperation time is at hand. You can’t shut up a fool.
