New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) accused President Donald Trump of failing to provide enough federal assistance to the city amid the Coronavirus Outbreak.

“My question is Mr. Trump, Mr. President, are you going to save New York City or are you telling New York City to drop dead?”

De Blasio asked Trump why he is seemingly so silent.
“President Trump, what’s going on? Cat got your tongue?” de Blasio said. “You’re usually really talkative.”
He noted New York has become the epicenter of the Coronavirus Outbreak and asked how the city is expected to rebound without the proper resources.
“How on earth do you think that New York City, which has been the epicenter of this crisis, can get back on our feet without federal support,” de Blasio said.
