Democrats Never Let Dying Children Go to Waste
Jeff Charles
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt slammed Democrats for exploiting the deaths of Texans who perished during massive floods over the weekend. The reaction from the left-wing chattering class reveals just how far they will go to politicize a tragedy.
During a Monday press conference, Leavitt expressed the White House’s condolences to those who lost loved ones during the floods. She then addressed Democrats who are using the tragedy to score cheap political points against the Trump administration.
“Unfortunately, in the wake of this once-in-a-generation natural disaster, we have seen many falsehoods pushed by Democrats—such as Senator Chuck Schumer—and some members of the media,” Leavitt said. “Blaming President Trump for these floods is a depraved lie, and it serves no purpose during this time of national mourning.”
Shortly after the floods became fatal, high-profile Democrats took the opportunity to slam President Donald Trump for making cuts to the National Weather Service (NWS).
However, Leavitt defended the agency, saying it “did its job” in the lead-up to the storms. “Despite unprecedented rainfall, the National Weather Service executed timely and precise forecasts and warnings,” she said.
