Trump administration officials confirmed Tuesday they are on the ground in California looking at ways to intervene in the state’s mounting homelessness issue, which President Donald Trump has criticized as “disgusting” and a “disgrace to our country.”


But many elected officials and homelessness experts in the Golden State said any White House assistance would be disingenuous given federal housing cuts have helped exacerbate the problem. Some also accused Trump of using the homelessness issue to win over conservative supporters ahead of the 2020 election.

Meh. DT recently proposed drastic cuts to the HUD. That's not exactly the kind of help for the homeless I'd want either.

LOL California has the 5th largest economy in the world. Without California the U.S. would be a welfare state.

Right there with you on that! Progressivism, writ large. Live in sh*t, dysentery, typhoid, etc., right on your doorstep. It's the progressive way! See how enlightened and "woke" they are?!?

Hmmm... If so, then why is living in major California cities akin to living in medieval conditions? Why can't California manage its own population humanely and without posing major health risks to everyone else?
