    it seems like Cryin' Chuck just got a presidential beat down. But Trump is right. New York, and many other democrat states, run their states/cities into the ground with the expectation the federal government will bail them out. We've seen this expectation in CA, Chicago, Baltimore, etc, and now New York.

    How does a state with some of the richest people in the country who pay some of the highest taxes in the country, find itself unprepared and in need of federal help?

    Holy crud! Trump wrote, "No wonder AOC and others are thinking about running against you (Chuck Schummer) in the primaries. If they did they would likely win." Now that's funny as hell.

    Huh? Red states are a net drain on federal resources/dollars. Blue states do better in virtually every metric. Where do you guys get this nonsense?

    However in Times of very little in the way of Funny anything
    I just got thru watching - Tucker - where surprisingly a New York Times
    journalist is rather upset over what we have been told.As to the seriousbess
    of this Pandemic.Citing actual conclusions drawn by supposed Experts.
    Citing A prediction from a week ago where some University of Washington
    Health panel said the City of New York would be facing 50,ooo
    cases of Coronavirus any time now.Well a week later { Today } there
    are around 12,ooo such Cases reported in N.Y.City.That means the
    So-Called experts are Wrong by a factor of FOUR.
    And go to YouTube and listen to how unravelled Dennis Prager is
    with how these S0-called experts { namely Dr.Fauci } are Either LYING
    or Stupid.In their assessments.
    Of course you could Go Rogue and adopt the Alex Jones
    conspiracy model of what has happened.Which seems to be
    pretty doggone accurate.So much so ... It's Twilight Zone
    territory.

    I get it like Obama Blue States.The ones most likely to give a
    Lockdown order.The first to face insolvency and declare Obama
    as their states Mascot.
    Been there done that Bub.

    If blue states do better in every metric then why they almost always the ones looking for a bailout?

    If the left really believed all this socialist nonsense, rich states like CA and NY would be sending boat loads of money to my poor state of NM. Instead NY is crying and whining about not getting more than others.

    Uh, nobody was prepared for this. Not local governments. Not state governments. Not the federal government. Not people. Not businesses. Not Wall Street. Not our hospitals and clinics and first responders.

    Nobody.

    That whole damn letter is funny as hell. The best part is that it appears it was typed exactly as he dictated. He should have thrown in a nice "kiss my ass" at the end. :roflol::roflol::roflol:

    Coming from Trump attacks in 3 years, I just find it moronic that anyone would complain about Trump firing back at them. They had ample time to create a co-worker relationship with Trump, but when Orange Man Bad, those just aren't priorities.

    If Schumer had written a similarly couched letter to Trump, he would be running off to Hannity claiming he got a 'nasty' letter from Schumer.

    Well when you have a ballbusting Governor { thinks he's Mussolini }
    Like Andrew Cuomo making the comment that he Thinks Conservatives
    need to leave New York.Because they don't share a New Yorkers midset.
    To agree the state needs to ban all guns.Have higher and higher taxes.
    To have ballbusting teachers who follow every order handed down by
    Liberals in their teachers union.
    To adopt a Sanctuary city mindset.Go easy on criminals.
    Make cops out to be the bad guys.And on and on and on.

    Schumer is free to use his crayons and write his own letter.

    Apparently, you have never actually listened to a Trump speech.

    I'm not sure what that reply is supposed to mean.
    But all anyone need know is the obvious.That Schumer
    has a Devils smirk on his face,most every time he rants.
    Sometimes he rants while putting his hands in his pocket.
    Try that at West Point or Annapolis and see what happens.
    BTW ... Schumer mentored Anthony Weiner { Carlos Danger }.
    What do you say about Dem potatoes.?
