Pres. Trump, a president for MAGA loyalists; but not for blue states?

That Pres. Trump is a president only for MAGA loyalists, which is a tricky bit of criticism, but he has shown himself before. Harris says she would be a president for everyone, even those who did not vote for her. That is the contrast she wanted to dramatize, and it is certainly part of her appeal to form a coalition of traditional Republicans, independents, and Biden Democrats.  The most disturbing report of the Trump presidency, particularly with the frequent devastating wildfires of the past several years in, recently, a blue state, Colorado, was that Trump tried to refuse federal aid during a raging wildfire in California because "they were a blue state." Trump refused to give California wildfire aid until told how many people there voted for him, ex-aide says - POLITICO

Nothing says it better than that: Trump would be a president for those who are loyal to him because that is what is most important to him.
