    However, New York state and New York City leaders assured everyone they were.....
    That's the point.

    With the help of democrats, of course. They are experts at unpreparedness.
    Besides, they do have a plan. If something bad happens, they blame it on Trump.

    No kidding, huh? In a time of national crisis, the pettiness of that letter is obscene. And no need to defend it, Trump supporters - I know you like your leader to be strong. This, unfortunately to some, does not show strength. So we can agree to disagree.

    It’s not a good point.

    let’s states off the hook, like:

    Florida
    Louisiana
    Michigan
    Indiana
    Georgia-of course their governor just learned yesterday people with no symptoms can spread it

    nope, as it is a matter of objective fact. The data clearly shows this.
    and what makes a state blue or red? people, and how they vote. blue states contribute more than red states. red states are a net drain on federal resources and tax dollars. I know that sucks for you and your ideology, but reality does not care.

    Well, if I were you, I'd be embarrassed to have voted for a president who wrote such a petty and un-professional letter. Kind of like the one he wrote to Kim Jong Un. Other professional could lose jobs after writing such letters. Not Teflon Trump.

    You, on the other hand, are proud of it. What does that tell us? That his supporters give him a pass for everything?

    Left people think that only left people think, and usually never question what they think.
    That's an amazing bit of thinking..... sort of.

    That will be one of the lessons learned through all this, hopefully.

    People should learn to never expect much from government.

    Well, it's not like regular people were all getting prepared while governments sat on it's hands either though. Pretty much everyone was caught off-guard by the seriousness of this.

    Nothing we can do about that now but let it inform us in the future.

    Haha, what are you, an english teacher? It got the point across, and it was ****ing hilarious and spot on. That all you can say is it is "unprofessional" shows how right he is. We knew his personality before we voted him into office, and most of us like how unorthodox he is. So, yeah, we're pretty proud of it.

    People rely on government to be prepared. That's a mistake.

    You hardly get anything right because you refuse to accept the entire picture ;)

    Best-Run States Are Low-Tax Republican, Worst-Run Are High-Tax Democratic, Study Finds

    Ahahahaha

    I don't know when you started following politics but this isn't a new phenomenon. Obama got nothing but flack from RW media over things like his Suit color or mustard on his burger. I think he finally got fed up and made a crack in his last year about Fox and the lack of knowledge by those who watch it exclusively.

    Yeah. Welcome to being the POTUS. If he didn't want the fire that every other POTUS has had to deal with, then he shoulda stayed outta the kitchen.

    Yep very much so. Cheers

    Trump is a fighter. If someone takes a cheap shot at him, he’s going to hit back.

    Bush 43 said one of his biggest regrets from his presidency was not responding to unfair criticism (lies) from the left. At that time, he tried to “rise above it”. But the public ended up believing the lies because he didn’t defend himself.

    how lame can a trumpers reply get??

    California has about 35 million people
    New York has about 20 million people
    New Mexico has about 2 million people

    and you ask why new mexico is not as rich as 2 of the most populated states

    one thing is for sure, the deranged are the trump supporters

    you gotta be kidding!!

    Trump a fighter?? biggest laugh I have had all day

    he is the most whiney president in history...when cornered, trump just lies

    trumpers seem to think when he lies he is fighting back

    a Lie and a counter punch have nothing in common

    and BTW Bush 43 was too stupid to defend himself ..

    and he knew fighting back would get him nowhere
    he did 2 terms

    one thing I gotta give trump

    he makes 43 seem like a genius

    I am not sure what study you are using for this, but the one I am aware of mainly looks at the amount of taxes paid by the red versus blue states. The blue states tend to be richer and pay more taxes. However, that is the way the democrats like it. They like for the rich to pay more taxes than the poor. You can't have it both ways.
