This is a time in our nation's history that will be remembered for all the broken fools who needed so much attention.
Trump screws his voters again: He just denied disaster aid to Maryland (while giving it to red states). But I took a look and it turns out the suffering Maryland counties are in Appalachia and backed him by 40 and 54 points.
