Yikes. Sounds like things are pretty bad in East Harlem:

New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay is pretty sure she knows what’s going on here:
But make America great again, right? https://t.co/PfDXcZ2wBA

Ah, yes. Gotta be Trump’s fault, right?
New York Times editor thinks the federal government controls the water in Harlem.
— SmegmaCumLaude (@PhCheez) February 24, 2020
Yes, Harlem not having water is definitely Trumps fault not any local politicians….

Pretty sure the President of the United States isn’t the Mayor or the Governor of New York. https://t.co/pZtBZAqTsI

The national government’s job is not to fix the problems of local communities. If NYC has a problem look to the mayor.
— Tyler Boliver (@TylerBoliver) February 24, 2020
The president has no power over nor responsibility for water main breaks in cities.
Make civics education great again, please.

2 Democrats run NYC and NY. But Trump or something.

Dems run NY. Own it.

Considering your state is run by @TheDemocrats, perhaps you should ask them. https://t.co/UcLwEacf3V

And acknowledge where the problem lies? Please. Mara knows where her bread is buttered; she’s not about to say anything bad about New York City’s Democratic leadership. Not when Donald Trump can be blamed instead. Seriously:
Public housing is a federal program, thanks

Solid B+ for effort, Mara!
The New York Times Ed board member blaming Trump for New York City housing problems is a bit too on the nose.

"Why isn't Trump a dictator who makes the Democrats not suck?" is a hell of a take. https://t.co/JTpNiNMnBT
