Like Graham, he would be crying for help for his state. I remember one time he didn’t want to give aid to a state that had been hit by tornados I believe, yet when his state was hit by a hurricane he had his hand out.

No surprise, since they killed a bunch of their own voters by convincing them not to wear masks or get vaccinated.

And the effects on business operations, supply chain, and finance.

The market will respond to chaos and risk. Interest rates up.... The market goes down.

He said any aid should come with conditions because of poor leadership and poor land management. Id love to know what’s been done on the Louisiana coast to harden structures and change building codes to make them more resistant to high winds? What’s being done with flood mitigation? And the same goes for another blood red state in Florida? Oh yeah, they’re red states so when it’s them on the other end of the stick no politicization allowed. Just write the checks.
