Jeenah Moon/ReutersThe rejection of federal aid is the latest example of the Trump administration governing the country using a two-tier system based on whether it benefits red or blue states. As Politico noted, Trump has approved nearly 90 percent of requests for federal disaster aid from Republican-led states. Politico said Donald Trump is overseeing the “most partisan distribution of FEMA aid” since the agency’s creation in 1979. Evelyn Hockstein/REUTERSOfficials from the Democratic-led states believe the decision to deny federal disaster relief was purely political. White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson insisted there is “no politicization” to the president’s decisions on disaster relief aid in a statement.
