Why should we help red states?

So if they travel here are they selfish liberals?

 

The Eastern part of Washington is essentially a "Red state", except for the area of Spokane and Yakima (lots of migrant agricultural workers).

 

I’m afraid you’ve been a bit misled about red states. Here’s some interesting reading to help with that.

And yes, New York helped out some states in return. Don’t fall for the false narrative people in red states are @**holes.

 

I'll remember that when I see tons of NY PL and NJ tags on our roads here in SW Fl this winter. Fortunately the selfish Canadian liberals have no choice but to not come this year.

 

In reply to the Title question"

..because we don't want to be as selfish, inconsiderate & narrow minded as many of them seem to be.
Compassion must over rule pride and other character flaws. if we are to evolve as a humanity.

 

Can we get some sources for the Idaho issues you are speaking of and the nature of the emergency that requires it?

I'd like some reliable context to your claim

 

This is false. For example, President Trump sent the hospital ship, USNS Comfort, to New York, and her sister ship, USNS Mercy, to Los Angeles.

He also directed the US Army Corps of Engineers to build field hospitals in many blue cities and states (and some red ones) to provide additional hospital bed space:

It's simply not true to say that President "Trump would not help blue states". President Trump HAS helped blue states, so much so that the Governor of New York, an ardent critic of the President, admitted:

"He has delivered for New York."

 

Don't help the red states. That will go well with the next election for the Repubs. Let the Dems do nothing (as is tradition) for Red states and with a Dem President, this will be an extra thanksgiving for right wing voters. Blame will lie on Biden and Caramel

 

They also have tiny little hospitals.
