Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has accused President Donald Trump of having “no interest” of helping the American public through the coronavirus crisis after losing reelection.
The New York representative participated in a town hall with constituents on Thursday and was asked the status of coronavirus stimulus talks within Congress during a time when the American public and businesses could use the additional relief funding.
"We thought [stimulus relief] was going to happen and at the very last minute the rug was pulled out for us," Ms Ocasio-Cortez said. “And now we are in a very dangerous moment where President Trump has no interest in helping the American people.”
She added: “His urgency prior to the election, I would say, was entirely predicated on his reelection. And now the election is over it seems he has no urgency to help everyone in this country.”
