Mayor Frey Asks Trump for Help After Minneapolis Rioters Cause Millions in Damage (wants federal aid)
Breitbart ^ | June 06 2020 | AMY FURR

Mayor Jacob Frey (D) is seeking federal aid to help Minneapolis recover from the protests and riots that have wrecked the area.

“With at least $55 million in estimated damage and far more to come, Minneapolis will need state and federal aid as it attempts to rebuild hundreds of structures after the riots following George Floyd’s death,” Frey explained on Thursday, according to the Star Tribune.

The report continued:

City officials are still putting together a complete tally of the destruction and cautioned that estimates are likely to rise significantly. Gov. Tim Walz and members of Minnesota’s congressional delegation are trying to get government assistance to offset that cost. But in the past, neither the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) nor Congress has consistently sent federal funding to cities ravaged by riots.

I like the concept. Take their abject failure...publicize it...rub their idiotic faces in it...come in as the white knight...tie them up with federal purse strings...keep on hammering their stupidity and voter pandering....work out an acceptable very mild repayment scheme...so they gotta watch themselves...and show how magnanimous you (Trump) are...and fix up (at least building wise) the dump...hire contractors you know and even conservative “minority” contractors. Not a bad idea. But get rid of the hapless vote panderers.

Get the money from the ones doing the protesting and rioting. If grounding them isn't working, send them to bed without supper.

I hear the late George Floyd has $10 million maybe they should consfistcate that to pay for the damages.
