US Elections 2020 – Trump: ‘They’re Democrat-run cities. It is what it is.’ At a town hall meeting in Pennsylvania, Donald Trump blamed Congressional Democrats for wanting “a bailout of Democrat-run states” for the stalemate over a coronavirus relief bill.
US Elections 2020 ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos, the moderator of the town hall, pressed Trump on why he keeps criticising “Democrat-run states” and “Democrat-run cities”. As the president of the US, Stephanopoulos asked, “don’t you have a responsibility for those states and cities as well?”
“The Democrat-run states are the ones that are doing badly,” Trump said. “If you look at New York, if you look at Illinois, they’re doing poorly … They have things that Republicans don’t have,” such as crime and sanctuary cities, he added.
“Look, I’m the president of everybody, but I don’t want to say it, but they’re Democrat-run cities. It is what it is.”
