If Trump did this, didn’t make a public statement of support or visit, and then went to Camp David to play Mario Kart, he’d be crucified by the press. Absolutely crucified.

INBOX: @GovAbbott says @JoeBiden only “partially” approved Texas request for disaster declaration. Wanted individual assistance in 254 counties, got it in 77 counties #txlege

Imagine the media reaction if this was CA & Trump did this:
- Apparently, TX requested to increase the capacity of fossil fuel generation to meet demand due to the upcoming winter storm & temperatures. DOE refused.

BOMBSHELL: Biden administration blocked Texas from increasing power as Texas begged for help a week before catastrophic polar vortex.
Texas asked to temporarily lift regulations on energy output to avoid disaster. Biden's DOE refused to help due to "green energy standards". //

- Then, after the damage was done, Biden refused to grant disaster status to 70% of the counties requested by TX //

Biden “has not visited the stricken region or delivered prime-time remarks; he did not mention the disaster at a recent town hall; and he is studiously avoiding the controversy over whether wind energy or fossil fuels are to blame for power failures”
Biden’s low-key approach to storm wins praise but courts risks
