Disaster funds for states hit hardest by COVID-19 still not released. Incompetence, maliciousness, or both?— Nicholas Grossman (@NGrossman81) March 25, 2020
I can't find a good reason why the White House hasn't and all 3 are blue states. Hard not to suspect maliciousness, though I don't want to believe anyone could be so cruel https://t.co/y6LricB0tQ
Trump says if states want the federal government to be a good partner to them in fighting coronavirus, "they have to treat us well." pic.twitter.com/ixao0a1UdN— subscribe to my newsletter (@brianbeutler) March 24, 2020
This is very clear. He doesn’t like Cuomo. He’s mad at New York. So he’ll make lots of people die. In his mind he owns the country and New Yorkers weren’t nice to him. https://t.co/BkBSskddau— Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) March 25, 2020
Seems very clear - from various angles - the President is trying to set this up so that the Governors are at fault for what happens in their states. Lots of deaths, that's on you. Economy stalls because you locked down? Good job. That's on you too.

The transformation in rhetoric by which NYC becomes a leper colony is quite deliberate and an attempt to defuse Andrew Cuomo’s popularity.— Charles P. Pierce (@CharlesPPierce) March 24, 2020
Meanwhile, the sociopathic Man Baby tries sarcasm, and once again reveals the black void at his core:
This is really great news! I am so happy I can barely speak. He may have been a terrible presidential candidate and an even worse U.S. Senator, but he is a RINO, and I like him a lot! https://t.co/42zpWW9vzy— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 25, 2020
Gee, that’s too bad. Such a fine guy. Presidential aspirations you know! https://t.co/MgOWgAzMxs— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 25, 2020
Is this when he became president, media? Huh? Huh?
We'll go with this in the meantime --
