You could not reschedule a cash grab and social event to go to work for the people of your state who are dying, or who have lost everything. You aren’t just a disgrace to your state, you are a disgrace to humanity.” Related: ‘We’re Not Talking About Politics Now’: Trump Delivers Supplies To Hurricane-Ravaged Georgia
