A recent report reveals that former President Donald Trump hesitated to approve federal disaster aid for California in 2018 due to the state's Democratic leanings. Mark Harvey, a former senior director for resilience policy in the Trump administration, indicated that Trump required data showing Republican support in affected areas before he would approve assistance for the devastating wildfires. Trump’s approach to disaster relief appears politically motivated, as he has previously denied aid to Puerto Rico and expressed skepticism about helping regions he perceived as not supportive of him. Meanwhile, Trump is currently criticizing the Biden administration's response to Hurricane Helene, despite bipartisan praise for their efforts. Critics argue that Trump's history of politicizing disaster relief raises questions about his leadership qualifications. This pattern of behavior underscores a broader concern regarding the impartiality expected from national leadership during crises.
