If the disaster meets the threshold of an emergency declaration by federal standards, then it should be provided regardless of what anyone thinks of their idiot governor. FEMA can review and approve CA’s requests as I’m certain the CA govt will try to rip us off, but I understand people have died and a lot of property was damaged.

If you think Trump popping off publicly and hanging money over his head IF the need is really there will work out for us, you are sadly mistaken. The blow back would be ridiculous.

Honestly I’d have to go back and compare to other disasters to see how this compares. I do hold out the possibility Brown is using this as a trap for Trump.

I have read that flooding tends to cause earthquakes, too. Also it looks like Oroville is sitting right on a subduction zone Northeast of Santa Rosa. Murphy's law?

Agreed. Trump is hated here. It is all based on lies. But Trump needs to not let Moonbeam win this one. Moonbeam is at the head of the worst state government,

You’re missing the point. The General Public gets their info from CNN and the likes. If you belive that we should somehow negotiate with the other side, you’ve been asleep for the last 20 years.

Plus take those billions for the train that does not exist and build another dam! Trump will send the US taxpayer money:

From each according to his ability to each according to his need.

There are millions of rich RATs in So-Cal. Let them pick up the tab.

I wonder if that was the 9th district court in that ruling.

We must be talking past each other. I’m saying look at his request and grant it if it is appropriate. Based on what I know I think it is but that’s only based on what I know of the storms not in depth study per se. Are you saying Trump should just tell brown to go pound sand?

From bad to worse.

Thanks, Maggie.

Trump says here is the deal. Use your persuasive powers on the 9th circuit as they reconsider things and aid will be on it’s way.

100-200 million just to fix the Orville dam. Sweet - either use the illegals to plug the hole - nope won’t work, or beg Trump for money- nope won’t work.

Good one!

Trump must do the politically correct thing and not use this as leverage...however, Trump plays the long game. I’ll never forget the photo released by Trump’s people of Mittens eating frogs legs at Trump Tower.

He's kidding, right?

If California would disenfranchise and offer up its illegal aliens, the state would have a budget surplus, plenty of water for Americans, and not need help.

Besides, what is a little rain? Especially as they have been crying drought for years.

So many possibilities, The Prez must be overwhelmed at the number of ripe responses to this tripe from Moonbeam.

Hope he picks a good one, from the numerous low hanging fruit.
