Gavin Newsom meekly accepts Trump's offer to 'bail him out' of LA riot damage
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] California Gov. Gavin Newsom swallowed his pride and officially applied for disaster relief assistance from President Donald Trump.
In a statement on the approval for aid, Trump's Small Business Administration (SBA) said it took weeks for Newsom to ask for federal disaster relief in the midst of violent and destructive pro-illegal immigration riots in Los Angeles.
SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler approved $2 million in an Economic Injury Disaster Loan for businesses to apply for in order to support their normal operating expenses like payroll, rent and utilities.
Newsom spoke disparagingly about Trump and his administration's reaction to the riots as leaders in the state sought to downplay the violence and bump up the reason for unrest – mass deportation policies and crack down on illegal immigration.
Loeffler said the California Democrat finally asked for the administration to 'bail him out.'
'After weeks of no real solutions and inflammatory social media statements, Governor Newsom finally requested federal disaster relief to bail him out – again,' she said.
