What is this Red State Blue state bullshit anyway? So may states are close to 50/50 or have millions of Red voters. Trump is like fuck them all? Insanity

In 2018, the New York Times posted an article about Trump being a racist. In response in the readers’ comments, a woman wrote this.
She hit it right on the head.
“I think calling Donald Trump a racist misses the mark. He is incredibly superficial and empty of thought, and calling him a racist suggests he actually has a belief system, when in fact he simply thinks about what’s in it for him. He likes attractive people, and winners and has zero sympathy for people who struggle, despite his claims to the contrary. His idea of helping the working class is to make it easier for wealthy people to hire them for low wages and low benefits. Your worth is measured in what you earn. Little by little, the Republican party has been introducing the idea that in order to get ahead, we need to focus on societies winners, and not worry about those unable to make it.
Forget racism. This is the real issue.”

Good luck with that! He golfed 15 months during his presidency, when he had the job, that’s 1.25 years out of his 4 years.

This happened with Puerto Rico, California, and COVID, a long fucking time ago. News isn’t new.

Old news. I remember when this happened to California with its wildfires. Trump initially refused aid, but then his aides convinced him that numerically, California has the most number of Trumpers. I remember when Trump gleefully boasted that Newsom called him to thank him. This fucker needs to lose in November.

Trumps administration also confiscated then hesitated giving Covid supplies to Blue states.

He didn’t hesitate. His own staff had to essentially trick him into finally doing it.
Like hiding a pill for a dog by sticking it in a piece of cheese.

What have blue states done for red states, besides fund EVERYTHING?? Blue states actually could cover themselves if they didn’t have to prop up the other 2/3 of the states!!

All you MAGAs with democrat governors, Donold doesn’t care if you live or die regardless of you voted for him because you live in a blue state.

Donald Trump who does not believe in climate change will destroy our nation.
Spoiler alert: We might not be able to recover quickly if that happened again.

That’s because he’s a terribly horrible horrendous person!

Something Democrats have always understood, is that when you are President of the United States, you are President of ALL Americans. Not just the ones who voted for you.
Republicans never understood that, or maybe they just reject it, since selfishness is the main core characteristic of conservatism.

He gave 1% of the requested disaster aide to NC within months of becoming president. Trump won NC. He’s a dickbag to everyone.

He said this out loud.

Of course he did. He also “punished” blue states by capping real estate taxes people could claim since blue states have higher property taxes.

Yeah we know. It was [so bad that Larry Hogan, the Republican governor of Maryland, called out the National Guard to prevent federal agents sent by Trump from seizing PPE flown in from South Korea](https://cnn.com/cnn/2020/04/30/politics/larry-hogan-coronavirus-masks-national-guard).

And foreign countries like Puerto Rico.
