Trump vowed 'A Plus treatment' for Alabama. That’s not what California and Puerto Rico heard.
By Reis Thebault Reis Thebault National and breaking news reporter Email Bio Follow March 4 at 8:47 PM After the deadliest outbreak of tornadoes in years swept through the American South, killing more than 20 people and wreaking devastation in Alabama, President Trump promised on Twitter that the disaster relief would be swift, the best his administration could muster — “A Plus treatment” for a state in dire need.
The difference between Alabama and Puerto Rico and California, the president’s critics say, is obvious. In January, Trump leveled an attack against California officials who were battling the aftermath of a spate of forest fires that burned through hundreds of thousands of acres, destroyed thousands of structures and killed scores of people last year. He accused the state of mismanaging its forests and said, without evidence, that California wouldn’t need aid if it took better care of them.
“California, get on the ball,” he said during a conference for local officials from Alaska, Hawaii and California. “Because we’re not going to hand you any more money. It’s ridiculous, okay?”
