Kamala Harris went after Donald Trump for his false claims about FEMA in the wake of devastating storms in the Southeast, ABC News reports.
Said Harris: “It’s profound and it is the height of irresponsibility and, frankly, callousness. Lives are literally at stake right now.”
She added: “People are losing their home with no hope of ever being able to reconstruct or return, and the idea that somebody would be playing political games for the sake of himself — but this is so consistent about Donald Trump.
He puts himself before the needs of others. I fear that he really lacks empathy on a very basic level to care about suffering of other people and understand the role of a leader is not to beat people down, it’s to lift people up.”
