Isn’t it the President’s duty to contact the governor when there’s a disaster? Does he need an engraved invite?
Anyhow, wouldn’t that be a conflict of interest? The shooter told Anchorage FBI that he’s fixated on ISIS. So is Obama. They’re kindred spirits.
No, it is the other way around. A governor must ask for federal aid.
I remember this vividly because during the Katrina disaster Bush the younger was criticized roundly for not sending aid to a state where the Dem governor had never bothered to request it.
The Dem did shoot his mouth off about not getting any.
