Trump is going to arbitrarily withhold equipment, financial aid, etc. to any state or governor NO MATTER WHAT. He may use "They weren't nice to me" as the excuse for now, but he will not help certain states no matter how deferential they are to him. Oh yeah, with this exception: the states whose electoral votes he needs will get the help New York, New Jersey, California, and Connecticut need.

How can I be sure? Personal experience. My father hated me. My sister told me not to rile him up or he'd cut me out of his Will. So I bit my tongue when he tried to provoke me. And he died. One-and-a-half million dollars in the estate. And you know what? He disinherited me AND my sister who used to kiss his ass. Why? Because he could. He left the bulk of his estate to four charities.
