re: Why should the people and taxpayers of America be bailing out poorly run states?

It's all a rather silly exercise either way. Louisiana has a democratic governor. Is it a "red" state just because of how it has recently voted in presidential elections? Are its "red" voters or "blue" voters the primary beneficiaries of the federal largesse?
I agree, and I'd also add that there's no meaningful trend either way. What liberals say about blue states being bastions of giving back more than they receive is also a fallacy. Some states suck, some states have their shite together, and it doesn't really matter if they're red or blue or what party their governor is in at the moment.
I don't even disagree with Trump's statement until he says the unnecessary BS line "in all cases Democrat run and managed". In ALL CASES? Really, Trump? Is Mississippi well run?

I think it was a point signaling to states possibly not wanting to reopen in hopes of getting more federal funds. Nothing more, nothing less.
