President Trump has denied federal disaster aid to Pennsylvania for Tropical Storm Isaias. The denial was issued three weeks after Trump vowed retribution against the states Democratic governor for imposing restrictions to contain the pandemic.
Trump on Wednesday turned down Gov. Tom Wolfs request for millions of dollars in disaster aid to help nine counties in eastern Pennsylvania recover from Isaias, which swept up the East Coast in August. Wolf submitted his request on Oct. 5.
The damage in Pennsylvania was too minimal to qualify for disaster aid, the Federal Emergency Management Agency said in a statement to E&E News yesterday.
Ed. - It wasn't.
Trump had criticized Wolf at a campaign rally in Allentown, Pa., on Oct. 26, and vowed payback for restrictions that included Wolfs order closing nonessential businesses and limiting the size of gatherings such as campaign events. Ill remember it, Tom. Im going to remember it, Tom, Trump told a cheering outdoors crowd. Pretending to hold a phone to his ear, Trump impersonated Wolf: Hello, Mr. President, this is Gov. Wolf. I need help. I need help. You know what? These people are bad.

That's what his followers love about him. They finally got someone in the white house who's just as coarse, crass and stupid as they are. He's one of them. He's President Camacho without the lucidity or automatic weapons.

Yes they probably do cheer for that, because they're completely stupid and they're assholes. It's the power of brainwashing.
